LOL


So, the individual states don't matter in one post and then the individual states do matter in the next.
ALL ELECTIONS MATTER!

LOL! That is worth a second chuckle. You can't have it both ways.

an article from a conservative publication stating cruz is eligible ( altho the author incorrectly attributes the start of birtherism to hillary clinton ):

Ted Cruz and Natural Born Citizenship: A Belated Reply to Mario Apuzzo | Western Free Press

the article debates failed birther attorney mario apuzzo's stance so.... apuzzo show's up in the comments debating that cruz isn't eligible.

and the birther report take an the article/comments:

"How could a man whose father was a non-American and a mother too young to confer natural born citizenship on her son be eligible for the presidency?"

hard to tell if farrar is now favoring the "citizen at birth" definition of "natural born citizen" but expect those leaving comments to be overwhelmingly against cruz's eligibility.
Wow, I did not expect your latest post. Cruz is your in your face politician and some folks do not like on any level. I think he is a breath of Fresh Air and he leaves off where Palin has fallen short.

I would love to see a debate with Cruz vs. Clinton. What a politic event!

Of Course other may differ that OP.

All indications have put Cruze as Eligible. for running for President. If he runs?

i think it should be noted ghostrider that it's the pre-existing birthers, those same ones that are buying into mike zullo and joe arpaio's malarkey, that are claiming that cruz is ineligible.
