Ted Cruz was born with full citizenship of both countries. He ditched his Canadian citizenship and is good to go.
The end.
If only the parties and media been so curious about the background of the current occupant of the White House.
All Cruzers should be aware and prepared that if Cruz is on the ticket whether as Pres or VP, the Dems and Hillary are coming after him in the courts about his eligibility, and there are plenty of liberal judges out there, a given, who don’t like Cruz.
When does the challenge for Marco Rubio come?
Oh I see the check from Bush/Kasich must have cleared....
Don’t spend it all in one place Dallas Morning News.
Cruz’s mommy was old enough to pass her American citizenship through the blood stream.
Bammy’s mommy was too young, but no one in the media ever points that out.
This is the part that worries me.
None of this is at all surprising in a country in which political expedience and self-interest always seems to trump the Constitution’s requirements.
Here’s the honesty test:
What would your response be if Hillary Clinton had been born in another country of a father from a communist country?
If you can honestly say that you would publicly sign off on her eligibility for the presidency under those circumstances, fine.
I am of the opinion that the President of the United States should be born on American soil to two American citizens.
Obviously, I am in a minority.
I think it is a very sad commentary on our country and our citizens that we actively support by legal arguments and the meaning of what “is” is, someone who was born in a foreign country (yes, Canada is a foreign country) of only one American citizen, and who was a citizen of said foreign country until a couple of years ago.
Using the argument of Obama is really stretching. I don’t think he was/is eligible by virtue of the fact that his father was not an American no matter where he was born.
I also don’t think Jindal and Rubio are eligible by virtue of the fact that they are anchor babies.
Of course, we could continue this road until we end up with a president who is the son of the Chinese president, born here on vacation.
I am horrified that “conservatives” think this is all okay because it’s their guy. Same logic the Democrats used when it was their guy.
