That old clip of Trump on the morning show talking politics, was he running for office or something? I didn't really think people cared about his politics back then.

Cruz could've easily deflected the New York Values thing when it was brought up at the debate by just saying "I was saying he's liberal". Instead he hemmed and hawed about "We all know what New York Values means..." while smirking for like a minute before getting to his point. Uh no we don't dude and that response just sounds like you're telling people from New York to gently caress off. If you're running for president you really shouldn't tell your future constituents to gently caress off even if you don't think they'll vote for you (see Romney, Mitt).

Your 2nd amendment right is your constitutional right that guarantees all others. If Americans can elect unnatural citizens like Cruz to President, what's there to say that anything else in the constitution is valid and that the 2nd amendment won't be re-interpreted to apply to militias only?

So what you’re saying is that she definitely wasn’t an American citizen at the time of his conception.

Gotta leave the race before you get trounced in your home state. It's one of the greatest reasons why sitting electeds should run for higher offices.

Question is, will Bush leave before he gets trounced in Florida, or is Veto Corleonne's ego too big to care?

Dumb question for people who know about constitutional law than me: what would be required to settle the Natural Born Citizen issue? Wouldn't it require a Constitutional amendment? The lawyer in Texas is making it sound like he wants to bring his lawsuit to the Supreme Court to settle the issue once and for all, but is it in the Supreme Court's purview to review vague Constitutional language*, and what exactly could they do to that effect?

*that is to say, in and of itself, rather than how it relates to federal law
