It's the parents US Citizenship at time of birth that determines the child's Natural Born status.

Both parents were not US citizens, a Kenyan is not a US citizen!

Both parents ARE NOT required by the US Constitution, it's Amendments, US Law or SCOTUS Ruling to be citizens at the birth of a child in order for that child to be "Natural Born"

Please provide the relevant sections of the U.S. Constitution that clearly and unambiguously define "Natural Born" as requiring two U.S. Citizens at birth.

Lacking that, Please provide the relevant sections of U.S. Federal Law that clearly and unambiguously define "Natural Born" as requiring two U.S. Citizens at birth.

Lacking that, Please provide the relevant rulings of the U.S. Supreme Court that clearly and unambiguously define "Natural Born" as requiring two U.S. Citizens at birth.

You won't because you can't because they don't exist anywhere except in your mind and in sources that are not legal or constitutional in nature.


CRUZ or LOSE!

Here's the law: (g) a person born outside the geographical limits of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents one of whom is an alien, and the other a citizen of the United States who, prior to the birth of such person, was physically present in the United States or its outlying possessions for a period or periods totaling not less than five years, at least two of which were after attaining the age of fourteen years

Cruz was a citizen at birth by law. This is not significantly different than the 1790 Naturalization Act, the very first law about birth citizenship after the Constitution was written. That law was not vetoed by George Washington who presided over the writing of the Constitution. He agreed that the child of at least one US citizen was a citizen at birth.
