Ted Cruz to run for POTUS
-
He wasn't not born here and one of his parents was not a US citizen at the time of his birth.
So how is he allowed to be President?
Also, I really have very little idea about his politics, but from what I have seen, he's pro-life, pro-gun and anti gay marraige. If he runs on those points, he probably has little chance of winning. IMO
All good points with me.

Well, Woody,
if a person is born outside the USA and he isn't born on a military establishment, or a piece of land "OWNED" by the USA, and 1 of his parents is NOT a US citizen.........................should he be allowed to be President?
According to the CONSTITUTION...................................NO
Rules are rules.

What? Me?
Ummm... I'd imagine if he wasn't able to run for president, he wouldn't. It would be very easy for someone (an expert) to prove he isn't eligible. No reason to waste his money if that's true.
Yes, all of the "birther" shit as ridiculous. Any attack on this guy down the road will be too. This is under the assumption that legitimate, legal alleys would be taken for the opposition to prove he's ineligible.

He should not allowed to be president IMO. He was born in Canada. Period.
The GOP has awful leadership.
I like Rick Perry WAY more than Ted Cruz
-
For some reason the republicans think they cannot win the general election with a conservative candidate. I would argue where did running not so conservatives like Dole, McCain and Romney get us? I heard the same thing with Reagan he was too conservative and he was the best president in my lifetime. I would be happy with Cruz or Rick Perry.
-
Obama wasn't born here either so why does it matter?
if you believe some bullcrap photoshopped picture of a birth certificate you are pretty stupid also.
-
WELL, I will not vote for Jeb the modpansy Bush. And, about Gov Perry? Good guy, but a very conservitve friend
of my Father-in-law told me, that he was a good gov., but he was not a smart man. Wouldn't make a good president.
I admire THune, but he isn't running... I like Cruz, but I like him better in the Congress.
Walker and Carson are the guys I want to vote for.
Hear that, republican party? A Walker-Carson ticket would make me happy. And would win.

How about Condoleezza Rice/Carson?

So 32 years before I was born until now... Sounds like something my generation is not solely responsible for.

Deny it if you want... But you can't change the inevitable
Go talk to those people that are pro slavery, against women voting, and against interracial marriage in America....

I never said YOU were. READ. I'm saying these views used to exist, in much larger numbers, and have been phased out over the generations.
I never said I speak for my generation either. But I can find public opinion polls that agree with what I'm saying

It means that progress, moving forward, change etc is not in and of itself positive.

Never said it always was. At one point Germany "progressed" to Nazism.
As a whole though, I'd imagine it is a net positive change. On many fronts (technology, human rights, etc).

Martin Van Buren was the first Natural Born U.S. President...... All before him were British subjects or born to British subjects prior to the constitution.
If you took an "originalist" view of "Natural Born Citizen" then neither Obama nor Ted Cruz would qualify - both parents would have needed to have been citizens.
I don't want Cruz to be the next U.S. president, but I can't see how the Supreme Court could grant standing to hear a case on his citizenship after not granting standing for people (Initially democrats from Hillary's campaign) to have Obama stricken from the ballot.
Section 1 of Article Two of the United States Constitution sets forth the eligibility requirements for serving as president of the United States:
“ No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
