Apropos the silly non-story of the day…
that Ted Cruz was born in Canada:
I will never stop being slightly surprised and slightly fascinated that the Framers of the US Constitution wrote in a “native-born citizen” requirement without elaborating what it meant or apparently even thinking that it needed any explanation, even though none of them (and, ultimately, none of the first seven Presidents) had been citizens of the United States when they were born.
