RE: He was born in Calgary, Alberta Canada, he cannot run, but he is a fine senator.

Is it your contention that someone born overseas even with American parents is not a natural born citizen?

Let’s just solve this problem right now and annex Alberta. What’s Canada going to do about it?

Cruz was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, where his parents, Eleanor Darragh and Rafael Cruz, were working in the oil business.[8][9] His father was a Cuban immigrant to the United States during the Cuban Revolution.[10] His mother was born and reared in Delaware, in a family of Irish and Italian descent.[9][11] Cruz’s family returned to the U.S. when he was four years old./

His mother is from Delaware, his father is a cuban immigrant.

My reading on this is that only one of his parents was a US Citizen at the time of his birth. And he was born outside the U.S.

If there is evidence of his father having US citizenship at the time of Ted’s birth, then this might be a grey area.

I am a strong supporter of Ted Cruz, but have seen nothing that indicates he meets the Constitutional qualifications for President.

The Presidency is the only office that has that requirement. The law is what it is.
