George Washington - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaThe Constitution allowed people born elsewhere before some certain date to be president. Washington fell into that category.Where does the Constitution define "natural born citizen"? Yeah, nowhere. You pulled that out of your ass.The HUUUGE irony here is that Cruz claims to be a "constitutional conservative" presumably one that follows original intent....and the original intent is clear.....born in one of the United States.LOL! A blog post by Grayson himself, confirmed liar, on HuffPo. No wonder you're such a big fucking fail, Hairboy.
Even if you go back to British law at the time the Constitution was written (we were rejecting British law weren't we?) it was the citizenship of the FATHER that mattered, not the mother........
so Cruz doesnt really have a leg to stand on....he is ineligible for office and I praise Grayson for being willing to go to court over this.
If you want to be technical George Washington wasn't a natural born citizen of the united states
George Washington was born in Virginia.
Which was part of Great Britain
