Trump's supporters file lawsuit challenging Ted Cruz's US citizenship

http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2016/2/12/1484261/-Donald-Trump-files-lawsuit-challenging-Ted-Cruz-s-US-citizenship

By Bradford Richardson

The lawsuit, filed Feb. 3 at a district court in Alabama, seeks a judgment “declaring that Rafael Edward Cruz is ineligible to qualify/run/seek and be elected to the Office of the President of the United States of America” due to his Canadian birth.
