The States Determine Qualifications for Voting and Procedures for Registration, and only Citizens may Vote

PoliticalBoxesThe fact that certain states are attempting to allow illegal aliens certain rights afforded only to citizens is an example of the progressive degradation of our society.

    Art. I, Sec.3, cl. 3, US Constitution, requires that US Senators have been a US citizen for at least 9 years. But apparently, Ted Cruz didn’t renounce his Canadian citizenship until May 14, 2014

    Pursuant to Art. I, Sec. 5, cl. 5, it is the responsibility of the Senate to judge Ted Cruz’ qualifications to hold office. But of course, everyone in Congress ignores the Constitution….

    Yet we keep re-electing them!
