Since US law applies to those US born on US soil wouldn’t Canadian law apply to those born on Canadian soil?
Under English common law, yes he would be. However it is irrelevant. However, since his mother was a US citizens who owed her allegiance to the US, Ted Cruz is Jus Solis.
US law governs US citizenship. Canadian law governs Canadian citizenship. Every Jew, regardless of place of birth, is eligible for Israeli citizenship under that country's Law of Return. Anyone with an Irish grandparent is eligible for Irish citizenship. Do those laws affect the US citizenship of the people to whom they apply?
Newsflash: Plenty of American citizens have been born not on US soil. They were born to an American citizen who happened to be in another place the day of the baby’s birth. You’re just wrong about the soil ruling the day. But in America our nation has made the stupid mistake of recognizing anchor babies born here to non-citizen mothers. That is a choice that we made, to do, that doesn’t make sense to go along with our other citizenship laws. It’s in conflict with them.
I don’t take YOU seriously. My posts are meant for others to read and take in, not meant necessarily for you.
I can’t take anyone seriously who believes that Ted Cruz has no idea what country he’s a citizen of and has spent his brilliant life not knowing he’s Canadian and here you pop up to tell him about it.
If it weren’t so bizarre, and troublingly sad, it would be rolling-on-the-floor hilarious.
Post #25, for anyone reading this who wants to know Ted Cruz’s position on his own citizenship.
