If she was a fully qualified US citizen when he was born, she can transfer her citizenship to him at birth. If you wish to contest her claim to citizenship, that’s fair game. However, when such a challenge is raised, the burden would fall on you to provide evidence her claim of citizenship was invalid. You would have the right to do extensive discovery, and if you knew where to look, maybe you could find something. But the burden, legally, is on you, not her, to make out a case against her claim to US citizenship. What have you got?

That IF is the 64 million dollar question now isn't it? You are taking it on faith that she could give US citizenship without any shred of evidence.

How did Cruz get a US passport? No way he got it with a Canadian birth certificate. He has to have some kind of documentation he is a US citizen. Where is that documentation?

Cruz is the one making the claim he is 'natural born', why should I or anyone else be required to disprove his claim? He wants to be president, lawyer Cruz has not provided anything to prove he is what he claims to be.

Because that's kinda how that whole innocent until proven guilty thing works.

He wants to be president, lawyer Cruz has not provided anything to prove he is what he claims to be.

He's provided more than enough to provide a prima fascia case that he is exactly what he claims to be. In court, he'd bury you (that's a metaphor). For example, you're "concerned" about his mother being a citizen. Fine. Your job is to prove this is fake:

Maybe you can.  Maybe you can't. Give it your best shot. Good luck.

Peace,
