I have no idea how this would play out, but in this situation, in our system, it is possible.

Illinois reviewed your question.
They said he could appear on the ballot.
Let’s try cheering for the home team.
Cruz is the most conservative candidate running.
Illinois is Obama’s home state. It is an excellent test of your question.
Now is the time to support Ted Cruz.

I think it would depend on whose head would explode more dramatically. Hillarys or Trumps.

Non-starter. Cruz ia a NBC.

I simply can not see how our Founders would have considered Cruz a natural born citizen.

When the Supreme Court is split the lower court’s decision stands. People are so focused on fighting about Trump vs. Cruz that most seem to be overlooking the significance of the shift in the balance of the Supreme Court that has just taken place and its possible effect on the outcome of the election if Cruz prevails.

As I recall, it is extremely difficult to achieve “standing” in order to bring such a suit, at least for a Republican. Maybe if you are a Democrat the rules change?

I think they would have noticed that his parents were citizens.
since he was born to them— he would be a natural born citizen.
They would also have written language stating that individuals must be born within the borders of the United States.

There could be 40 frivolous lawsuits... and that just Trump and his various bands of supporters this week. Please nobody boo them, or that number may double.

No, cruz was a Canadian at birth. You cannot be both a NBC American and a Canadian citizen at the same time. You may be so jaded that you cannot grasp that, bit that does not change the fact the cruz is not a NBC. And if he were to get the nomination you would see just how fast that would be proven. Fortunately, cruz getting the nomination is just not a real possibility at this point.

Cruz would still need 270 electoral votes regardless of what the courts decided.
To: mike70
It is up to congress to determine if Cruz is eligible. If they deem that he is not eligible, then the VP becomes president. The courts do not have jurisdiction.

You have to admit the frothing of the mouth might make it worth it.

Really, you do not even know that that statement is not correct, and yet your posting like you know the difference between naturalized and NBC? LIV?
