Breaking: Trump Floats Lawsuit To Determine If Cruz Is Eligible To Be A Natural Born Citizen

[Steve_McGarrett]

And he won't be eligible. Cruz is a statutory Citizen. A statutory Citizen (bestowed by man's pen/positive law) can never be made into a natural born Citizen (bestowed by God/nature/natural law).

Removal Motion: Donald Trump Floats Lawsuit Over Canadian-Born Cruz’s Article II Ineligibility - Birther Report

Cruz is part of the establishment. He has Goldman's on his side.

Expecting a fair review of the facts is like expecting the courts to look at Hillary's nefarious deeds with an impartial balance. Don't look for it to happen.

Cruz's influence will put him above the law.

Steve is not entitled to his own definition of terms.

The courts will not consider such an argument.

It's the patriotic thing to do. The Constitutions Article 2 Section 1 must be upheld, not subverted!

Going to the link in the OP, it seemed Trump's target yesterday was Glenn Beck.

Lofty ideals for a guy who runs around with bogus quotes in his sigline.

[JakeStarkey]

Trump is going to win Iowa, maybe by ten points, and the polls are clear that he should win NH.

Yes but he was grandfathered in as a Citizen president before natural born Citizens were eligible to be president.

i remember someone on radio or television telling us which US presidents were born in england/europe or outside the mainland.......would make for a great argument for Cruz, and he was born on the other side of the border. big deal when u think of where Bambi was born.

Why on earth wasn't that rule changed years ago?? Why does the US have second class citizens who can't even aspire to be President??

The founders were wise to include the natural born Citizen clause.

If she didn't squirt him out on American soil he ain't American.

 

[JakeStarkey]

This is not an issue.

Trump's campaign, if a suit is filed, will be fined massively for instituting a frivolous suit, which will be summarily dismissed.

and what about those kids born in the usa who were in mexico the day before they were born?
