The Birthers are showing their true colors. Lily-white.

I'm still trying to figure out why Cruz is supported by these racist pigs.



Return Of The Rubio Birthers

Submitted by Miranda Blue on Tuesday, 4/14/2015 12:27 pm

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio’s announcement yesterday that he will seek the Republican presidential nomination has brought back a strain of far-right birtherism that contends that Rubio is not eligible to be president because his parents were not U.S. citizens at the time of his birth.

In its write-up of Rubio’s announcement, birther outlet WorldNetDaily (which has been a big promoter of Ted Cruz’s candidacy) cites unnamed people who “contend Rubio’s not even a natural-born citizen and therefore, ineligible to seek the presidency”:

1. Irrational even for WND, given

their whole "theory" on Obama's "birth certificate" required interpreting "natural born citizen" to mean "born on U.S. soil," which it doesn't mean, but which would also disqualify Cruz.

2. Amazing that World Nut Daily

Supports Carnival Cruz who was actually BORN in Canada

3. This arguement would stem on when he was born and when his parents became naturalized

citizens of the US. And where he was born. Children of immigrants born in the US are legally citizens. Even if they parents are not if they are born here. I suspect he would know if he could run or not.

4. This is not quite birtherism. But you can smell it from here.

What we're seeing in this "story" is the generic right-wing rage at so-called "anchor babies."

They're calling a Republican US senator an anchor baby.
