Canadian Law means nothing. Silly.

Only US Law. Cruz was a US Citizen at birth, no naturalization needed, a natural born citizen.

Exactly, Canadian law means nothing whatsoever. If Costa Rica wants to grant citizenship of any child born in Wichita KS. That has nothing to do with U.S. citizenship.

Do a little research on that. Understand dual citizenship and choice at 18 wasn’t an option at that time.

He was NBC Canadian at the time of his birth at least according to Canadian law at that time. I had to get the CRBA for my kids born in Germany or they would not have been recognized as US citizens and issued US passports. Just saying “I am American” would not have cut it.

Except, you have no proof or US government document recognising Ted Cruz as a US Citizen!

Only if his mother filed a CRBA. His parents had immigrated to Canada and his father took Canadian citizenship—not sure if at the time that would be conveyed to his wife, but there are reports she was registered to vote, i.e., a Canadian citizen.

So you’re saying he’s a NBC of two different countries?

Tend to agree, so where's the Consular Report of Birth to put this to rest then, and why hasn't Cruz provided it?

This whole issue would go away 15 minutes after Cruz produced it, instead it appears we have the Republican equivalent of Obama here.

More and more, so-called "legal scholars" are divided on whether or not Cruz is a natural born citizen. Despite the claims of others on this forum, the USSC has not ruled on cases such as Cruz's either.

This issue isn't going to go away unless either Cruz produces the Consular Report of Birth, or this goes through the Courts.

If this has to go through the courts, I expect Cruz will be toast. No way the Republican Party wants their own "Obama citizenship" issue on their hands. They can't be that stupid, can they?!
