The dems will be more than happy to declare Cruz a citizen. I cannot think of another candidate the dems would rather have as the republican candidate. His biggest barrier to the nomination will be Rove & co--not dems or birthers. Other candidates would have a field day showing clips of Cruz wasting taxpayer money reading Dr. Seuss and imitating Star Wars characters all night in the Capitol building prior to shutting down the government and wasting even more taxpayer money. It's three years to the election and he's already campaigning. Gotta wonder when he has time to do any actual work. Being a demagog is a full-time job.
nearly all the claims that cruz is ineligible have come from existing obama birthers, the vast majority of which are on the right side of the political spectrum.
Thx for pointing out the obvious. Why would any dems, in their right mind, be birthers.

But like I said. This isn't a Tea Party policy. The Tea Party is for smaller government especially at the Federal level. Because someone wrote Tea Party leaders from ONE state in an article? Why would that lead one to believe that is a policy of the Tea Party?
There are a number of birther clowns in Congress and surprise surprise, they are Tea Party:
Steve King, Bachmann, Mike Coffman, Markwayne Mullin, Jeff Duncan, Stockman, Cliff Stearns, Vicky Hartzler, etc.
Plus Trump, Huckabee, Jindal.
Could you point out the policies that makes these people for a smaller federal government? Trump Huckabee nope maybe they support the Tea Party? but they aren't for smaller federal government imo
Jindahl didn't he get some support from the Tea Party but he doesn't have much impact at the Federal level.
Good Morning America interview 4/20/2011 Stephanopoulos: Well, but so does the president. According to the bill ‘a candidate for president or vice president shall attach to and file with the affidavit a copy of the candidate’s birth certificate certified by the appropriate official in the candidate’s state of birth.’ Bachmann: That’s right. Stephanopoulos: Well I have the president’s certificate right here. It’s certified, it’s got a certification number. It’s got the registrar of the state signed. It’s got a seal on it. And it says ‘this copy serves as prima facie evidence of the fact of birth in any court proceeding.’ Bachmann: Well, then that should settle it.
Cruz and Paul are big time Tea Party. You mentioned neither btw. Any rhetoric from them?
actually it has. the senate unanimously and without debate voted that mccain met the criteria for "natural born citizen" even tho he was born outside the US.
