(As a reminder... he is only 45, and yet he has still: authored 80 SCOTUS briefs, made 40 Oral Arguments to SCOTUS, was Solicitor General of Texas for five years (the longest tenure in Texas history), was a partner at the law firm, served as a law clerk to Chief Justice William Rehnquist, assembled the coalition of 31 states in defense of the principle that the 2nd Amendment guarantees an individual right to keep and bear arms, successfully defended the Ten Commandments monument on the Texas State Capitol grounds, the recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance in public schools and the majority of the 2003 Texas redistricting plan, successfully defended (Medellin v. Texas) an attempt by the International Court of Justice to re-open the criminal convictions of 51 murderers on death row throughout the United States. He was also Director of the Office of Policy Planning at the Federal Trade Commission, Domestic Policy Advisor to U.S. President George W. Bush on the 2000 Bush-Cheney campaign, was an Adjunct Professor of Law at the University of Texas School of Law in Austin, and is currently junior US Senator from Texas. On November 14, 2012, Cruz was appointed vice-chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. He is now spearheading efforts in the Senate to have Obamacare repealed root-and-branch... In his younger years, he won the National Debate Championship for Princeton, and came in second in the World Debate Championships for Harvard. There are also plenty of "youngest-ever" and "first-ever-Hispanic to" titles that he has claimed, but I'll leave those out of this substantive list.)
Naturalization accomplishes that. A naturalized person can't be a dual citizen, a native-born American can.
The REAL political fight in America today is between those who want to continue to move us further away from the laws of nature and nature’s God and the requirements of the U.S. Constitution and those who are trying to move us back to the laws of nature and nature’s God and the requirements of the U.S. Constitution.
This is why the Cruz constitutional qualifications controversy is so vitally important.
It your citizenship derives from the provisions of the immigration and naturalization statutes, it doesn’t derive from nature. You can be a citizen naturalized by statute or you can be natural born. You cannot be both.
And the Cruz candidacy now has millions of people who say they are moral conservatives and constitutionalists trying to talk us into moving further away from natural law and the Constitution.
This is one of the horrible first fruits, the terrible tragedies, of the 2016 election campaign.
