Cruz' Canadian birth is the least of his achillies heels. Canadian Cruz will be well covered in the GOP primaries.

Remember it was "Republican opperatives" outing Herman Cain.

But that was still different than proving a person is legally by the terms of the constitution, able to run. I am not really questioning either, I am simply saying there is a difference. One can be proved, the other can not. And BTW, drop the racial comments please. There were many that doubted the BC and not because of his skin color except wondering if he was born in Kenya or not. This isn't the same as being a racist nut.

Wrecking Ball: you are totally missing my point or taking it out of context: First of all, I never was part of and didn't like anyone who questioned Obama's birth. That is why I don't want to see it happen again. Many tried to do the same with McCain, just not as many. I am simply saying one is easy to prove, the other was not. You sounds like you are one of those who will question Cruz's right to run. We all know where he was born, do you think anyone is questioning that? What is the question is: because of the circumstances surrounding his Canadian birth is he legally eligible to run. That is the only issue. I have said over and over I am not a Cruz supporter.

IMO the question as to the whereabouts and legalization of his birth certificate came strictly from deluded RWNJs/read poor losers who to this day still think there is a coverup or conspiracy on the issue with absolutely not a shred of evidence to back up their allegations which they've been obsessing over for 5-6 years now,, people like birthers will go to their graves hating Obama and thinking he was born in Kenya.

and I agree with you 100%, but there was still a difference, as I have said.

Oh please, the idea that is was not about skin color is asinine. Seriously, how much more proof can there possibly be then issuing a state certified legal birth certificate that was verified by state officials. What other reason can exist to still question anything at that point??

There is no difference whatsoever.

Highly unlikely that Democrats would go to such ignorant lengths. Cruz's policies will do enough to destroy his credibility. The only reason Obama's birth was brought into question was because hes black and his middle name is "Hussein".

these statements are in contradiction of each other.

there is less evidence/official verification to the facts of cruz's birth than there is to obama's. please explain to me exactly how cruz's birth is "easy to prove" and obama's "was not".

No. They are not as petty. And most of them don't keep knawing on the bone after the meat is gone.

This is what I remember, also.

I have a lot to question about Cruz. His place of birth is the least of these.

nope.

i've always maintained that cruz is eligible to run for POTUS and have cited the congressional research service's report on the subject to support my claim:
