Cruz can run for president but should he? #tellusatoday
We asked for thoughts about a Ted Cruz run for president after two lawyers stated in a "Harvard Law Review" article that the Canadian-born Texas senator is eligible for the office. Comments from Twitter are edited for clarity and grammar:
The logic used by lawyers Neal Katyal and Paul Clement is persuasive and not new. See Barry Goldwater.

He's eligible. Question is: Will extremist Obama birthers be anti-Cruz, or will they choose hypocrisy?
— @Combs_JDavid
Birthers made a big deal about Obama while lying about his citizenship.
— @screwthechew
There will be a Democrat in the White House for four more years if he runs. Please, nominate him.
— @Malaguena915
He may be eligible for the presidency, but he's still unfit for it.
— @JMcDow1
This is a #tellusatoday question to ask Donald Trump.

If it's true that Cruz can run, then we need to change the law.
— @BarbaraDarlin
I think you should be born in this country or on a U.S. military base abroad to be eligible to run for president.
