...anyone with subnormal intelligence knows that Hannity is a witless fool who will say whatever appeals to his audience of mouthbreathers. The little twerp has no credibility with anyone outside of the Fox family.
You should expect this kind of hyperpartisan hypocrisy from Fox because that's what they do. Incessantly.
I agree with your post. Hannity doesn't know what he is talking about pertaining to Cruz.
Don Nickles, former Oaklahoma Senator, tried to help his friend John McCain with a Constitutional amendment in 2004, to make the overseas-born children of citizens natural born citizens. It failed to pass.
Actually, it died in committee. Like 90% of all bills do.

No it's not. It's just a bill that died in committee. Like 90% of all bills do.
No it's not Obama's case. Obama was born in the United States, Ted Cruz wasn't.
Spoiler
To make it even worse the birthers themselves admit Obama's mother was a citizen, but that's not enough they say because he wasn't born here.
And you don't have to be a natural born citizen to be elected to Congress
This is the part I enjoy...
So many people regard the country as AMERICA, referring to America 'this', America 'that', America America America... but... BUT... now that someone wouldn't want a citizen to be qualified to be President it suddenly becomes The United States.
Ted Cruz was born in Canada. His mother was a U.S. citizen. Not only is Cruz an AMERICAN, he was born a U.S. citizen as his mother was a citizen - the same criteria I use to justify Obama's qualification. Like, he wasn't even born in AMERICA, just an island in the Pacific but to a U.S. citizen.
Good post. These anti-American Obama lovers who want Article 2 Section 1 subverted are hell bent on obfuscating the true facts of what a true natural born Citizen is.
nothing in his post was "good". The only ones that are perverting the definition of Citizenship here are birthers. True facts? You've been caught posting lies from birthers. So you wouldn't know a true fact if it hit you upside the head.
It is Soetoro. The issue is not whether these people are citizens or not, the issue is Natural Born Citizenship, as a requirement for President of the United States. That is a very special category, which requires, born on US soil, to TWO citizen parents. Dual citizenship is a disqualification for Natural Born Citizenship because it suggest dual allegiance. It's really very simple, I don't know why so many can't get it right, including dopes like Hannity.
I don't buy that, if being born on US soil was what they meant, then why not just say "US born citizen?"
