birther leader Joseph Farah has no qualms about a Canadian-born presidential candidate Ted Cruz

"In another round of birthers embracing Ted Cruz, WorldNetDaily editor Joseph Farah — one of the leading voices of the birther movement — writes today that he has no problem with the Texas senator running for president even though he was born in Canada.

Farah explains that because the "media elite" quashed his conspiracy theory that President Obama is ineligible to be president because he was born in Kenya to an American mother and a Kenyan father, it doesn't matter that Cruz was born abroad.

Of course, the main difference is that Cruz was actually born in Canada — to an American mother and Cuban father — while Obama was born in the United States.

While Farah has made a career out of insisting that the Constitution requires the president to be born on U.S. soil regardless of the citizenship of his or her parents, apparently this rule doesn't apply to Tea Party heroes like Ted Cruz…and it's all the media's fault.

With all this heavy-duty investigative journalism and newfound faux enthusiasm for the Constitution suddenly on display, it's obvious the No. 1 fear among the elite media is that Ted Cruz might actually run for president.

They fear him not because he was born in Canada. They fear him not because of any concern for the U.S. Constitution. I will even be more generous to the Cruz smear machine than it was to me when I questioned Obama's eligibility by rejecting the notion it is because the senator from Texas is Hispanic. They fear him because he is a bold, eloquent, charismatic, principled, committed defender of American liberty.

I have been labeled by the Big Media as "the birther king."



So if anyone has the right and the duty to weigh in on Ted Cruz's eligibility, it's me – even though no one is asking.

My answer is, "I don't care.""
