•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)

Military and diplomatic service outside of the U.S. is counted as time in the U.S. You appear to be reading this as a requirement. That would be incorrect. Is that your whole argument?

Ted Cruz’s mother was NOT in the military or working with the U.S. embassy.
