Alan Grayson to Sue if Ted Cruz is the Nominee

[Young Conservative]

HA As a Floridian I'm ashamed that people from our state elected this man! Long known for outrageous comments, some not even politically related but about his ex-wife, Rep. Grayson has sunk to a new level. He threatens to sue if Ted Cruz is the nominee on citizenship grounds. Regardless of his birth place, his parents were citizens, making him automatically a citizen at birth and therefore, a natural born citizen. This is a clear example that the rep is either catering to his base or is confused about the legal basis of natural born citizenship. Which is it? Or is it both?

WTF Grayson......

[Stand With Israel. Crush Hamas]

He'll lose.

I am amused that the left-wing birthers have already emerged, though.

[Young Conservative]

FYI I apologize for saying I was ashamed that he was elected he deserves our respect as a congressman. I understand everyone has their opinions and they are valid... It's still a very strange statement in a very strange senate primary in a very fickle state.

Left wing birthers have existed since 2008, when the campaign of Hillary Clinton release statements criticizing Pres. Obama's birth status and began the birthed movement. The left started it originally, the right just joined the questioning.

I met Grayson in person once, he comes off in a weird way, like he just doesn't like people.

[dudeabides]

At least Ted Cruz isn't a wife beater.

[Ljube]

Cruz was not born in the United States and therefore is a naturalized citizen. His naturalization may be automatic, but he still went through a naturalization procedure.

Only the Supreme Court can answer the question if citizens born outside of the USA can be considered natural born citizens.

[Xing]

Yeah, what an ass. I bet Republicans would never question Obama's citizenship.... right?

[Bull Moose Base]

Obviously, this was an off-the-cuff joke trolling the GOP for its Obama birtherism.

Also, don't feel guilty. There is nothing wrong with a Floridian feeling ashamed of Florida but why not start with the governor?

Yet under his tenure, unemployment has decreased drastically, we have high job growth, no income tax, one of the best states for business....why should we be ashamed? Because we didn't elect Chain Gang Charlie?

I like Governor Scott well enough.

[Landslide Lyndon]

LOL! Grayson is trolling the Republicans and judging by this thread he is hugely successful at it.

Your hatred of Republicans blinds you.

Um, no, that's not what "naturalization" means. According to anybody. You're not even making this dumb argument correctly.

[ProudModerate2]

Maybe it's because Ted Cruz was really born in Kenya, and is truly an Arab.
Oh wait .... that was someone else, and that baloney rubbish was the belief of bonehead tea baggers.

[Orthogonian Society Treasurer]

Alan Grayson has shown his true face as a virulent anti-hispanic racist.

[I support Sanders]

I don't see what the controversy is. Obama's birth certificate proves that he was born in the United States. Cruz's birth certificate proves that he was born in Canada, which is a foreign country.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

Obama, please expel Grayson from the democratic party.

[SteveRogers]

I don't see what the controversy is. Obama's birth certificate proves that he was born in the United States. Cruz's birth certificate proves that he was born in Canada, which is a foreign country.

And federal law says Cruz was still born a U.S. Citizen as long as long as both parents were citizens when he was born.

[Bakersfield Uber Alles]

Makes me happy that Grayson didn't endorse Sanders. Grayson can be a turd.

[Blair]

He'll lose.

Never happened to my knowledge, the Clinton camp did awful things in 08 but they didn't start the birther movement. It's the GOP frontrunner who lead the charge

LOL what?? As you being a Trump supporter that takes balls to say.

You should be ashamed of electing that criminal twice.

No, he doesn't deserve our respect. This authority fetish is dangerous.
