If Ted Cruz Was Born in Canada, He Cannot Be President: PERIOD

If it's true that Cruz was born in Canada, then he can't be President.

  • Yes, that's what the Constitution says.

  • No, we can make yet another exception to US Law and it won't set a dangerous precedent.


Results are only viewable after voting.
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).

Cool. Now if only the Constitution agreed with you.

The stone wall you're up against is that the founding fathers made a point of differentiating and specifically insisting on "natural born" only for POTUS. You can't say "well they were speaking generally so we can interpret it any number of ways". No, you can't. They made a fuss about natural born for POTUS only. And that's that. A Canadian birth certificate means Ted Cruz can't run. I wanted to vote for him, so it's a bummer.

Any challenge to SCOTUS (and yes, the dems will bring one) about what the FF meant when they said "natural born" when it comes to POTUS only will find without a shadow of a doubt that anyone born with a foreign birth certificate does not qualify at all. It will be a cut and dried decision. 8-1 And 1 only dissenting because he's been paid off politically.

You are sorely mistaken. Cruz IS eligible and IS running. You can still vote for him.

The weight of legal and historical authority indicates that the term “natural born” citizen would mean a person who is entitled to U.S. citizenship “by birth” or “at birth,” either by being born “in” the United States and under its jurisdiction, even those born to alien parents; by being born abroad to U.S. citizen-parents; or by being born in other situations meeting legal requirements for U.S. citizenship “at birth.” Such term, however, would not include a person who was not a U.S. citizen by birth or at birth, and who was thus born an “alien” required to go through the legal process of “naturalization” to become a U.S. citizen.

No, I can't. The founding fathers made the differentiation when it came to POTUS and no man or woman born with a foreign birth certificate qualifies. You're familiar with how Obergefell came out with the five (the majority) pocket Justices of the far left? Who do you suppose it will be who will sue if Cruz gets the nomination (after they wait until the 11th hour to push the issue so there's no time for the RNC to recover their blunder)? That's right; the same people the GOP pissed off about the Obama birther drumbeat: the far left. You think that rainbow freakshow drunk with power already (and owning the majority of the Justices in SCOTUS), are going to waste a nanosecond suing and getting an edge on the election this Fall?

They can fast track a case like that you know, because of the dire implications and pending election. They could cause the SCOTUS to convene in an emergency on a case like that. You're either foolhardy or actually a democrat posing as a republican Cruz supporter so the RNC thinks "there's still a way to get Cruz in"....until the hammer falls...
 
The "natural born citizen" clause was an exclusionary clause apparently inserted at he "last minute" at the suggestion of George Washington who in turn received the suggestion by John Jay;
On July 25, 1787, John Jay wrote to George Washington, presiding officer of the Convention: From Wiki...
"Permit me to hint, whether it would not be wise and seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration of our national Government, and to declare expressly that the Command in chief of the American army shall not be given to, nor devolve on, any but a natural born Citizen.[28]
While the Committee of Detail originally proposed that the President must be merely a citizen as well as a resident for 21 years, the Committee of Eleven changed "citizen" to "natural born citizen" without recorded explanation after receiving Jay's letter. The Convention accepted the change without further recorded debate.[29]"

So the framers included the phrase without defining it. Some say it's because the meaning was obvious through Vattel who most of them seem to be very familiar with. Whatever the case the clause was meant as an extra layer of protection against foreign influence on the executive. It's ironic that the strict constitutionalists (a la Cruz) are the ones trying to diminish the import of this clause. The definitions they are coming up with are so broad and wide just about any American citizen is eligible to be Prez. Now I'm not, as a foreign observer, a strict constructionist, I lean towards the living interpretation of its format. Those who claim to be strict constructionists and argue that a person born in a foreign country to a cuban father attains "natural born citizen" status solely on the reasoning that his mother was an American citizen are watering down the exclusionary intent of the framers to the point where it becomes almost meaningless. This is the kind of thing we "living constitutionalists" are accused of all the time.

Have fun arguing that to the Rainbow-Reicht's Five in SCOTUS when (and not "if") they bring this matter before them... A Canadian (or Iranian or N. Korean or Russian or Chinese) birth certificate disqualifies a person from running for POTUS. Period.

It will never reach the SCOTUS. It is perfectly clear that a child of a US citizen is a natural born citizen at the time of birth no matter what country they're in.

You made the claim. What is there to argue? It's not there.

The funny thing about that is the ones most likely to raise the claim are GOP candidates.

Meanwhile- as with every 'legal' claim you make- you do not have a clue regarding the law and the Constitution.

Cruz is eligible- not qualified- but eligible.

Says you? Who cares what you say.

Obergefell has nothing to do with the Presidential race, no matter how much you have gay on the brain.

As with every post you make- there is not a bit of evidence to support your claim.

There were no 'birth certificates' in the age of the founders. So they had nothing to say on the matter. You're citing imaginary history, just like you're citing imaginary law.

The Far Left is going to enable Ted Cruz?

Sigh.......now you're citing imaginary reality.

So you now claim a Supreme Court judge has been paid off 'politically'. Dear God you really are delusional! So tell us how this Supreme Court judge...........for life, has been "paid off politically". What is this Supreme Court judge going to do to better his life? Quit the Supreme Court and run to be a fucking State Governor?
You're the fucking dumbest poster that's ever been on this forum!

Oh, Sil's genuinely mentally ill. She's claimed that Gallup has been 'infiltrated by homosexuals', that Justice Kennedy is gay. .;...or that Justice Kennedy is being blackmailed by gays. The conspiracies all run together.
 
Rafael Eduardo Cruz was a Canadian citizen until he decided he could usurp the Presidency and renounced a couple years ago. He spent the majority of his life as a Canadian citizen. And his father was a close ally of Fidel Castro.

Where's the birth certificate Mr. Cruz? What are you hiding?
Please oh please tell me you're all kidding.
I demand a long form birth certificate!!!! :mad:
