  1. They probably want a president who was born in the United States and who doesn't have loyalty to any foreign state cough cough, Netanyahu cough

  3. Natural born and naturalized aren't the same thing Nazareth.

  4. Yes, I think he is ineligible, since he was born in a foreign nation and held dual citizenship well into adulthood. As such this is the exact situation that the founders wished to prevent; the possibility however remote that someone with loyalty to any foreign state could command in battle. Cruz has a 0% chance of being nominated but if he was you can be damn sure there would be a supreme court showdown.

  5. I keep hearing that but that's not actually the case. First, the de facto definition of natural born as used has never been weighed in on by the supreme court. Second, nobody appears to want to discuss the other part of the issue- Cruz was a dual citizen until fairly recently. The fact that he was apparently unawares of his status means absolutely nothing.

  7. One source does not proof make unless the source is a supreme court decision. But I can tell you already with 100% certainty that anyone born outside of the US and not immediately naturalized to sole US citizenship would never be considered natural born by the supreme court.
