Breaking Report: Ted Cruz Entered The U.S. Illegally In 1974

What law?

What law says that Cruz cannot be President if he has a Canadian birth Certificate?

*******

In the 2008 election both major parties nominated candidates whose eligibility is dubious. For Barack Obama the question was whether he was born in Hawaii, which is U.S. soil. For John McCain the question was whether the Panama Canal Zone, where he was born, was U.S. soil. It is not, and being born of parents both of whom were U.S. citizens did not make him a "natural-born" citizen, although a statute was later adopted naturalizing such persons at birth...

..
The U.S. Constitution provides as follows:Article II Section 1 Clause 5:
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States...

.
The U.S. Constitution provides as follows:Article II Section 1 Clause 5:
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

The main authority for the original meaning of "natural born" is William Blackstone, in his Commentaries on the Laws of England, Volume II, edited by St. George Tucker, a Founder, published in 1803, especially Chapter 10:

As to the qualifications of members to sit at this board: any natural born subject of England is capable of being a member of the privy council; taking the proper oaths for security of the government, and the test for security of the church. But, in order to prevent any persons under foreign attachments from insinuating themselves into this important trust, as happened in the reign of king William in many instances, it is enacted by the act of settlement,l that no person born out of the dominions of the crown of England, unless born of English parents, even though naturalized by parliament, shall be capable of being of the privy council..
Presidential Eligibility

1. There was only one exception made for not natural born citizen and it was those people who could not have been born in the United States because of the date the people who made the Constitution all were foreign born. Their intent was that THEREAFTER all presidents of age 35 or greater must be natural born. At such time when there were sufficient 35 year olds born on US soil. Clearly we are beyond and well within that time.

2. The intent most obviously is that for the special and uniquely powerful office of POTUS, our Union's security is best preserved by having a president who has zero ties to a foreign country.....not a little, or a few....ZERO ties. ZERO influence.

3. Cruz's dad was not a US citizen. The word was "parentS", plural. Because as I said before, a US man on shore leave could sire a child with a Russian, Iranian or N. Korean woman and there would be no way to legally prevent that child born & formatively raised in any of those countries from becoming president also.. The 14th Amendment does not allow discrimination based on gender (father or mother in either scenario) or country or origin..

Cruz's dad was not a US citizen. The word was "parentS", plural.

That word is not in the US Constitution.
Are you ever going to explain your previous support for Cruz?
Or continue to run from the question?

If tested at the SCOTUS level, the Court will find that if exceptions can be made for Cruz having a Canadian birth certificate, then exceptions have to be made for any child of split-parentage being born with a birth certificate from ANY country, including Russia, China, N. Korea or Iran. The 14th as you well know, does not allow discrimination based on country of origin or gender (who begat or sired a child). Once the precedent is set with Cruz, all nationalities will be eligible to become president who have a foreign birth certificate.

Rafael Edward "Ted" Cruz (born December 22, 1970) came to the US in 1973. He was born in Alberta Canada of a mother who was born in Delaware. His father (who was a Cuban refugee in the US for some time), born in Cuba, earned Canadian citizenship in 1973; whereupon he showed his allegiance to that country by leaving it (and his family in Canada) promptly in 1974 and moving to Texas. Quickly Cruz's mother reunited with his father in Texas whereupon they all more or less became assimilated Americans. In other words, a case could even be made that Cruz is an illegal immigrant to the US, via his father and expatriate mother. Source of info: Ted Cruz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

That is most certainly not what the Founding fathers had in mind for POTUS.

He's a US citizen at birth, no exception needed.

No, he cannot simultaneously be "natural born US Citizen and natural born Canadian citizen with a Canadian birth certificate". A person cannot be born in two places at once. So, by your logic, anyone born anywhere in the world who has one expatriate parent or even a parent on shore leave that claims original US citizenship, is "citizen at birth" of the US. Which is of course legally-preposterous....especially when discerning law for such a vitally-important patriotic Office such as POTUS...

No...this will be tested and the Decision will come down either 9-0 or 8-1 against Cruz. 7-2 against Cruz is a long shot, but the result will be the same.

One is based on location, the other on parentage.
You can do both, as you can see, he did.
So did John McCain, for that matter.
Thousands do it every year.

If they meet the requirements of the law at the time of their birth, yes.
My logic has nothing to do with it, simply US law.

If you need a statute to make you a U.S. citizen then you are not a natural born citizen. Cruz fails that test.
 
South Park might have something to say about that. If they run an episode about Cruz (the temptation to do that must be beyond their threshold even), Cruz is in big trouble come Fall if he gets the nomination..It will be hilarious of course...but not for the RNC..




What a fiasco.
If Hillary and Cruz win.
If he gets it he may not be eligible and if the FBI gets Hillary on her Foundation. :uhoh3:

Did you read that in the US Constitution?
 
Have a nephew that always has a hard time on a background check.

He, and his sister, were born in the Philippines when my brother was stationed there.

But, he's never been denied purchase.

and they are as 'natural born' as their stateside born cousins
 
Born in Canada with a Canadian birth certificate, long or short form = deal killer. He can't be POTUS. He can't be above the law. That would be a terrible precedent to set because if the POTUS models lawbreaking for everyone else...well...surely you can see the problem there..

What law?

What law says that Cruz cannot be President if he has a Canadian birth Certificate?

There is no law that says that.

If Ted Cruz Was Born in Canada, He Cannot Be President: PERIOD

Why do you run from my question?
Learn the law smokey. That is why the whole BS with Obama born in Kenya didn't matter either. It was just a demented infowars BS topic!

If you are born with at least one of your parent being a US citizen, then you are a naturally born US citizen. You could be born in Iranian for that matter.
