WestVirginiaRebel Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Daily Caller: Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is a “natural born citizen,” according to the Illinois Board of Elections. The state’s BOE ruled that Cruz met the citizenship criteria to appear on the state’s primary ballot. Two state residents, William Graham and Lawrence Joyce, challenged Cruz’s eligibility with the board, claiming his name should not appear on the March 15 primary ballot because his candidacy did not comply with Article II of the U.S. Constitution. “No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President,” the Constitution reads. “Either shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been Fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.” ________ Sorry, Donald...
