Coulter... Cruz ineligable....

Ron Aldof Thu, 01/14/2016 - 05:08
I know I know I know..... Ann Coulter!?!?!?!
But, she does bring up a good argument.
 
 
 
 
"If Ted Cruz is a "natural born citizen," eligible to be president, what was all the fuss about Obama being born in Kenya? No one disputed that Obama's mother was a U.S. Citizen.
Cruz was born in Canada to an American citizen mother and an alien father. If he's eligible to be president, then so was Obama -- even if he'd been born in Kenya. "
 

"As with most constitutional arguments, whether or not Cruz is a "natural born citizen" under the Constitution apparently comes down to whether you support Cruz for president. (Or, for liberals, whether you think U.S. citizenship is a worthless thing that ought to be extended to every person on the planet.)     

Forgetting how corrupt constitutional analysis had become, I briefly believed lawyers who assured me that Cruz was a “natural born citizen,” eligible to run for president, and “corrected” myself in a single tweet three years ago. That tweet’s made quite a stir!"

But the Constitution is the Constitution, and Cruz is not a "natural born citizen." (Never let the kids at Kinko's do your legal research.)

Did I hear Coulter correctly? That it only depends on where you are born? SOunds like she's for Rubio.

I really don't understand why NBC is so difficult to understand - born on United States soil to two parents who are US citizens. The founders would be shocked by either how brain-dead we have become to be unable to understand such a simple concept or just how nefarious politicos have become - hehe unless you spoke to an Anti-Nationalist.

Laugh. It makes you feel good.

Coulter is flat out racist.

"Jack of all Trades...Master of None" But forever learning more!

I thought she was supporting Cruz.  Not sure where I read that.  She is rather repulsive especially when it comes to the issue of immigration.  I could agree with here 80% of the time but the tone she implements is undesirable.

Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

Unless you cringe at the possibility of Hillary running against  "The Donald"., who'd definitively "schlong" her.

NO...I don't believe you ARE a "Fan"...nor a Hillary- supporter, However:

It's unfortunate that two (2) of the "A Team" candidates, namely Cruz and Rubio, are gonna be in the prime-time debate instead of Rand Paul....Rand is "natural-born", unlike those two phonies, and should be onstage instead of them.

Inasmuch as Cruz is supposedly an "excellent debater" by past reputation, and recent examples, his ties to GOLDMAN SACHS via his wife present an "Achilles Heel" that Hillary would undoubtedly exploit and embellish at Mr. Cruz's expense......Unless it's all part of a "fix" to have him bow- out at the 11th hour and abdicate to Jeb Bush, who is the "intended" and "pre-planned" GOP candidate.....

To support Cruz would be tantamount to the "Lesser of Two Evils" scenario that so many Libertarians rail against so zealously. AND; although Cruz has "crusaded" as a "Libertarian-Republican", he is a "plastic-Libertarian", a phony who "attached" himself to the past examples of the Pauls, stealing their rhetoric for his own nefarious purposes. Cruz is bought and paid-for....Something that Trump cannot be accused of.

A Cruz fan?

LOLOLOL!!!

Just showing an argument saying Cruz is not a natural born citizen.

There was a post on here the day before with the same argument by the Washington Post.

We don't yet have a way for you to check on here on my posts and comments. But, if you know me, I have been accused of sabotaging the PL and the DP with my pro Rand Paul rhetoric. Thank you for the chuckle I so needed today. :)
