What is illiterate, ignorant, and stupid is the intentional and willful disregard of Article 1 Section 8 of the Constitution specifically enumerating Congress with the exclusive authority to establish all rules for naturalization, INCLUDING who does not need to be naturalized and is a citizen from birth, i.e. natural born citizen.
“What is illiterate, ignorant, and stupid is the intentional and willful disregard of Article 1 Section 8 of the Constitution specifically enumerating Congress with the exclusive authority to establish all rules for naturalization, INCLUDING who does not need to be naturalized and is a citizen from birth, i.e. natural born citizen.”
No, what is illiterate, ignorant, and stupid is your failure to recognize that you are citing the wrong statute, which did not exist when Ted Cruz was born on 22 December 1970. You cited: “title 8 section 1401 Citizen at birth - subsection G qualifies Sen Cruz as a natural born citizen.” The statute applicable to Ted Cruz when he was born was:
66 Stat. Public Law 414 - June 27, 1952. TITLE III - NATIONALITY AND NATURALIZATION. Chapter 1 - Nationality at Birth and by Collective Naturalization. NATIONALS AND CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES AT BIRTH. Sec. 301. (a) The following shall be nationals and citizens of the United States at birth; . . . (7) a person born outside the geographical limits of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents one of whom is an alien, and the other a citizen of the United States who, prior to the birth of such person, was physically present in the United States or its outlying possessions for a period or periods totaling not less than ten years, at lest five of which were after attaining the age of fourteen years: Provided, That any periods of honorable service in the Armed Forces of the United States by such citizen parent may be included in computing the physical presence requirements of this paragraph.
After pulling the stupid stunt of citing a statute that did not even exist when Ted Cruz was born, you then stupidly proceeded to once again make the absurd claim that the Constitution granted Congress the enumerated power “To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization” “INCLUDING who does not need to be naturalized and is a citizen from birth, i.e. natural born citizen.” In fact, the Constitution did the exact opposite by granting the Congress ONLY the power to naturalize persons who are not natural born citizens, including the children born abroad with one or two U.S. citizen parents who must be naturalized at birth or naturalized after birth to acquire naturalized U.S. citizenship. Neither the Congress or the Constitution have the power to change Natural Law or the facts of a natural birth, both of which existed thousands of years before the Constitution or the United States. This fundamental fact of Nature is confirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court statement:
United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649, 18 S.Ct. 456, 42 L.Ed. said “A person born out of the jurisdiction of the United States can only become a citizen by being naturalized....”
The U.S. Supreme Court statement recognized the fact that a statutory law can only make, authorize, or legislate naturalized U.S. citizens and not natural born citizens of the U.S. This fact is also reflected in the current U.S. Department of State Foreign Affairs Manual, since the former document is not readily available, see:
U.S. Department of State Foreign Affairs Manual Volume 7
Consular Affairs. 7 FAM 1151 INTRODUCTION... b. 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(23); INA 101(a)(23)) defines naturalization as the conferring of nationality of a state upon a person after birth by any means whatsoever. . . For the purposes of this subchapter naturalization includes:... (5) “Automatic” acquisition of U.S. citizenship after birth, a form of naturalization by certain children born abroad to U.S. citizen parents or children adopted abroad by U.S. citizen parents.
Note how the Foreign Affairs Manual says “8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(23); INA 101(a)(23)) defines naturalization as the conferring of nationality of a state upon a person after birth by any means whatsoever. . . For the purposes of this subchapter naturalization includes:... (5) “Automatic” acquisition of U.S. citizenship after birth, a form of naturalization by certain children born abroad to U.S. citizen parents....”
66 STAT. PUBLIC LAW 414 -— JUNE 27, 1952 POWERS AND DUTIES OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE; BUREAU OF SECURITY AND CONSULAR AFFAIRS The Secretary of State shall be charged with the administration and enforcement of the provisions of this Act and all other immigration and nationality laws relating to . . . (3) the determination of nationality of a person not in the United States. . . .
It must also be observed how the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Acts are explicit in stating the citizenship is being GRANTED to all of the persons who “shall be nationals and citizens of the United States at birth,” and such citizenship can only be granted to naturalized citizens and never to natural born citizens, because natural born citizens are citizens by birth before any statutory law could redundantly make them a citizen a second time over again. See:
The following shall be nationals and citizens of the United States at birth:
(a) a person born in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof;
(b) a person born in the United States to a member of an Indian, Eskimo, Aleutian, or other aboriginal tribe:
Provided
, That the granting of citizenship under this subsection shall not in any manner impair or otherwise affect the right of such person to tribal or other property;. . . .
Bottomline, the efforts to claim a natural born citizen is defined by the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Acts is utterly and totally fraudulent, because naturalization law is statutory law, and statutory law cannot define the Natural Law that determines who is a natural born citizen. The U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Acts grant citizenship, and U.S. citizenship can only be granted to persons who are being naturalized, whether they are children born abroad with U.S. citizen parents being naturalized at birth or after birth or they are alien citizens being naturalized as U.S. citizens after birth. Ted Cruz acquired U.S. citizenship by the authority of the Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1952 granting him U.S. citizenship by naturalization at birth. Ted Cruz is not and cannot be a natural born citizen, because he was born abroad with only one U.S. citizen parent, his mother, born outside the jurisdiction of the United States, and cannot acquire natural born citizenship in the U.S. by a grant of citizenship from a naturalization law. Attempts to do so constitute the subversion of the Constitution and the U.S. Government.
