They decide what they will and will not look into.
As long as Cruz isn't in 1st place they feel no urgency to look at this issue because if he doesn't get the nomination there is no chance of him getting elected.
So they will just wait it out for now.

What is dual citizenship?

Someone better take a look at Sanders.
Early life
Sanders was born in the New York City borough of Brooklyn.
His father, Eli Sanders, was born on September 19, 1904, in Słopnice, Poland,[20][21] to a Jewish family, and emigrated to the United States in 1921,[22] at the age of seventeen.[20 [23]
His mother, Dorothy Sanders (née Glassberg), was born in New York City on October 2, 1912,[24][25] to Jewish immigrant parents from Poland and Russia.[26][27]
Many of Eli's relatives who remained in Poland were killed in the Holocaust.[6][23][25][28]

As long as both of Sanders' parents were US citizens when he was born, then he is eligible for the presidency.Quote:

It doesn't say anything about IF or WHEN either of his parents ever became citizens. That's why I said someone better check him out.Quote:

Yes, only 1 US parent makes a citizen (just ask my kids as I'm married to a foreigner0. That however does not make them a US Citizen.Quote:

Its right there between English Grammar, the 1st Congress, and the SCOTUS. Put the simple 3 piece puzzle together and its beyond a doubt to anyone but liberal progressives who want to sell our country out to foreigners.
Any time you have to cite a statute, law, act or the 14th Amendment to confirm someone's citizenship, they are not natural born citizens. Natural born citizen means born of nature through blood and soil, not statutes, laws, acts or the 14th Amendment. Those are citizens by law, not nature. Natural born citizen is born in the US (soil) to 2 US citizens (blood). Very simple.
Our justice system DISMISSED all O birther cases because "they did not show HARM/INJURY". The fix was in! Plenty of harm to show now.
Serving in the military outside of the US is an exception if both parents are US citizens. They are following orders to live elsewhere - Romney does not fit into that category but both parents were US citizens.Quote:
