Leading up to 2016 this is going to be one of the best shows, if not the best show.. Is he a US Citizen(which he is) vs. Natural Born Citizen(?? which is what the Constitution states).. It's going to be worth the price of admission.
And I have NO idea if it is true, but I read somewhere Cruz's father was an ILLEGAL immigrant in Canada. LOL..
If true we have Cruz being born in a foreign country(not a military base, US embassy,etc), to an illegal immigrant FROM CUBA, a communist country.... This is priceless.

What's priceless is how the birthers folded like a lawn chair when the candidate in question was a white guy who was in their "party."

Honestly I hope he's allowed to run..
Another extremist from the GOP? Cruz would be destroyed in the general election..

He'll enjoy his two week stretch of being the top-polling candidate during the primaries before he does a Rick Perry and skulks back to Texas (why always Texas, people?! I like that state otherwise!).
Then of course Christie will run away with it. Which should also be interesting, because he's not into boot-licking the cray crays in the TPM as Mitt Romney so embarrassingly tried to do ("Severely conservative!" *facepalm*)

I would vote for anyone that had a logical and workable plan. I really don't even care if they were born on the freakin moon.

Yeah, I don't think Christie is a shoe-in either. Not in the primary he's not..
He's another East Coast moderate. He's not nearly far enough to the right.. On the issues he is almost a pre-2012 primaries Romney Clone.. BUT the big difference is Christie won't bend all the way over for the TP like Romney did.. And the TP is running the GOP right now...
I doubt he'll get half-way through the 2016 GOP primary season before being forced to drop-out...

Obama has set the precedence that would allow foreign born citizens to become US Presidents.
