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

IIRC, Title 8, Section 1401 of the US Code includes as a natural-born citizen someone who was born outside the USA, but for whom both parents were US citizens, so long as one parent has lived inside the USA.

On that basis, Cruz would not be a natural born citizen, and thus ineligible.

HOWEVER.

The Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1952 (as amended by Congress in 2001) also stipulates that someone born outside the USA can be a natural-born citizen if all of the following requirements are met:

1) They were born between December 24, 1952 and November 14, 1986
2) The person’s parents were married at the time of birth
3) One of the person’s parents was a U.S. citizen when the person was born
4) The citizen parent lived at least ten years in the United States before the child’s birth
5) A minimum of 5 of these 10 years in the United States were after the citizen parent’s 14th birthday.

On this basis, Cruz would appear to be eligible. I suppose it all eventually comes down to the issue of which set of seemingly conflicting laws end up being controlling.

This I did not know about.

Since this occurred the most recent in our history, it would seem to put the issue to rest.

I do doubt, however, that it will not for those who want "Natural Born" to mean two US Citizen parents at birth because they believe this definition invalidates Obama.
