Can we drop the birther BS on Cruz for now?

11. I'm not sure I see an analogy to birthers

"Birthers" make false claims about the President having been born in a foreign country. Ted Cruz WAS born in a foreign country. There is no conspiracy theory or dispute about that. Because that is not in dispute, the only question to be answered is whether he meets the Constitutional requirement to become President, i.e. that he is a "natural born citizen". Most agree that Cruz's situation meets the requirement, although there is no precedent that I know of directly on point to definitively resolve the question. I don't see it as unworthy of exploration, even if, in my opinion Cruz meets the requirement. If he wasn't born in a foreign country (if he had been born in say, Hawaii and not Canada) those seeking clarification would be "birthers".
