Even as a serviceman in Europe 1975 when I was born, I got a Consular Report of Birth certificate for my son - whose mother was a Czech.
Yup. Been saying this since the start of this. If he’s a U.S. citizen, then produce the document saying so.
bkmk
PING
Canadian Law means nothing. Silly.
Only US Law. Cruz was a US Citizen at birth, no naturalization needed, a natural born citizen.
I don’t understand these candidates. If you can shut people up, just produce the documentation required and all the talk goes away....unless you do not have it.
Ohmygosh. Cruzer heads are gonna’ explode.
In 1975 I could not hold dual citizenship..
before I was naturalized as an American citizen I had to denounce my allegiance to my birth country, New Zealand, another British country...
I’ve been saying this for a year. There should be a paper trail in both the states and in Canada.
Birthers!!
what is canada, but an extension of the US... so who cares...
GO CRUZ. eh!
Isn’t there an issue of Trump’s mother being a UK citizen?
This is one of the big things that scares me about Cruz. I can’t imagine that the founders intended ‘natural born’ to be so loosely defined. Two parents, one American, one cuban, move to canada and live there not working for the US military or embassy. Then they have a baby. They stay there for four more years and then move back to America. He maintains canadian dual citizenship for decades and then renounces it right before runnng for president.
Does this not bother you hard core Cruz supporters, who like me, believe in the constitution and our laws????????
I guess the real question is “what was the US law at the time of Cruz’s out of country birth”?
Canada’s law would apply to his Canadian status.
The mom and pop have had children in various countries. Mom had one in England and one in
Canada while pop had one in Canada and two in the USA.
Can a baby lose US citizenship because his parents renounce it? I didn’t think so.
And Canadian law of course is immaterial from a US legal perspective.
He ought to have a CRBA, but that would be entirely immaterial as to whether or not Canada would or would not consider him a citizen. Canada is a foreign country with it own laws. No law or procedure of the United States could prevent Canada from claimig him as a citizen if that were their will. The need for renunciation of Canadian citizenship is not something required by our laws, but it is by theirs. That’s the reson the renunciation had to be made to the Canadian authorities, not the US.
The CRBA is useful, but it is not a requirement..
In before the multi-thousand word copy’n’paste replies, replete with giant fonts and cap-locking.
I’ve been asking to see the CRBA for a month.
You are correct to point out how important it is.
This is getting to sound like the mysterious Zero birth certificate with a slightly different twist,
