The whole Canadian citizenship deal is a non-issue. The US doesn’t recognize dual citizenship as a status. Under the laws in effect at the time of his birth, Cruz was a citizen of the United States. There was no naturalization process to go through to become a US citizen.

Perhaps you might need to inform ol Mitch.

Mitch McConnell: Why no, the Senate won’t pass a resolution affirming Cruz’s eligibility like it did for McCain

Other than submitting a claim and having it adjudicated.

CITIZEN is NOT the same thing as NATURAL BORN CITIZEN in the Constitution. A DISTINCTION WAS MADE BY THE FRAMERS. A president and Vice President MUST BE a Natural Born Citizen which is BOTH PARENTS CITIZENS at the time of his birth AND Born in the USA.

Painfully, for many in denial, the issue is not just “citizenship”. It is eligibility under Article II section one to be president. You cannot be a foreign born US citizen and be president. Pretty simple really.

Slick. Wery, wery slick.

Unfortunately, if you were right, there would have been no need for him to be registered as a Canadian citizen. He could simply have stood on his so-called natural born American citizenship if any Canadian issues arose.

But he couldn't do that, because he wasn't natural born, and his parents knew it, and Canada knew it.

And he knows it.

He's naturalized, not natural born - if he's got naturalization papers. Without them, he's not even an American citizen at all, since he renounced his Canadian citizenship.

Also, Cruz won't show his parent's marriage certificate. If they weren't married when he was born, his mother would not meet the requirements of the relevent naturalization statute (https://www.uscis.gov/policymanual/HTML/PolicyManual-Volume12-PartH-Chapter3.html) since his mother didn’t live in the United States for the year before he was born.

Cruz is a huckster. He's playing for the GOPe, which means he's playing for Hillary.

Which means he's lying.
