Donald Trump and Ted Cruz Clash at the Fox Business GOP Debate

I'll start with you senator crew now you are poor sister constitutionalism would doubt that and as you know the US constitution says only natural born citizen are

eligible for the office of president states stop me if you've heard this before you were born you were born in Canada what

American mother so you were and are considered an American citizen but that fellow next to Donald Trump and others hazard

to being born in Canada means you are not natural born and that is raise questions about your eligibility do

you want to try to close this topic once and for all tonight well they'll I'm glad we are focusing on the important topics of the Hardenbergh

%HESITATION my friend Donald said that he had had his lawyers look at this from every which way and there was no issue there there was nothing to this further issue now

that Donald is dismayed that his poll numbers are falling and I but the facts and the law here are really quite clear under longstanding U. S. law the

child of a U. S. citizen born abroad is a natural born citizen if a soldier has a child abroad that

a child abroad that child is a natural born citizen that's why George Romney mit staff was eligible to run for president even though he was born in Mexico the

end of the day the legal issue is quite straightforward but I would note that the bursar theories that Donald

had to parents board on U. S. soil under that theory not only would I be disqualified Marco Rubio would be disqualified Bobby

Jindal would be disqualified interestingly enough Donald J. trump would be disqualified dnmt

because Donna's mother was born in she was naturalized now Donald's but I wish over here on

the issue of citizenship Donald difference on the issue of citizenship Donald I'm not going to use your mother's birth against

you because it wouldn't work you're an American as is everybody else on this stage and I would suggest we focus on

nbsp let me just NBC wallstreet journal just came out with a poll and

the line way up crews going down I mean so don't say you can't do you can't the wallstreet journal again like

beating you so you know you shouldn't misrepresent how well you're doing with the polls you know I have to say that in fact I was all for you until you started doing that because that's a misrepresentation number

one number two this isn't me saying I don't care I think I'm going to win fair and square and I have to win this one thank

you Laurence tribe and numerous from Harvard of Harvard said that there is a serious question as

to whether or not can't convince okay there are other attorneys that feel and very very fine to

use military that feel that because he was not born on the land he cannot run for office his the we're

running we're running he does great I would I choose him as my vice presidential candidate and

the Democrats who because we can't take him along for the some say they don't like they don't like no they don't like that he beats the rest of the field because they want me and

big lawsuit over your head while you're running become the nominee who the hell knows if you could even serve an office so
