Ted Cruz is a Natural Born Citizen of Canada where Jus Soli is clearly defined as the basis of Natural Born Citizenship.

Ted Cruz was born on December 22nd. 1970. At this time, his citizenship was defined by the Canadian Citizenship Act of 1947. This document clearly states that: A person born after the commencement of this act is a Natural Born Citizen: (a)if he is born in Canada or on a Canadian ship.

You can find the information regarding Natural Born Canadian Citizenship on the second and third pages at the link I provided.

It’s in front page. You should have known that any anti-Cruz, birther article would be on the sidebar somewhere.

What galls me is that the Dems are going to get away with having a Kenyan-Indonesian usurper on the throne for 8 years, but Cruz.....probably the United States last hope for honest Constitutional government......will be prevented from taking office.

I am so depressed. Why even bother to vote?

25-30% of voters don’t think Cruz is eligible, that a huge handicap.

If he got a declaratory judgment, like Goldwater or McCain, this wouldn’t be an issue for him.

You and your nonsense again?
Yet another Donald Trump paid shill?
Listen your made up “natural born issue” is going exactly nowhere. The US Supreme Court won’t touch it with a 10 foot barge pole.
You need to worry a it more about Trump’s mother who is a natural born British citizen. At least Ted Cruz’s mother was born here.
Go suck on a lemon paid shill.

Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic service included in this time)

Which qualifies Cruz. See:Constitutional Topic: Citizenship>Natural Born Citizen (scroll down)

Ted Cruz has a bigger problem than that. He didn't qualify for US citizenship at all at birth given US law at the time of his birth.

Public Act 414, Sec 320. Children Born Outside the United States of one Alien and one Citizen Parent.:

(a) A child born outside of the United States, one of whose parents at the time of the child's birth was an alien and the other of whose parents then was and never thereafter ceased to be a citizen of the United States, shall, if such alien parent is naturalized, become a citizen of the United States, when----
(1) such naturalization takes place while such child is under the age of sixteen years; and
(2) such child is residing in the United States pursuant to a lawful admission for permanent residence at the time of the naturalization or thereafter and begins to reside permanently in the United States while under the age of sixteen years.

(b) Subsection (a) of this section shall not apply to an adopted child.

https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/STATUTE-66/pdf"/STATUTE-66-Pg163.pdf

Page 83, Sec 320

Cruz's father didn't naturalize as a US citizen until Ted was 35 years old.

Yawn. NBC. Amateurs.

BTW - Canadian Law is irrelevant as this isn't Canada.
