You’re right. I owe you. I’m doing this on my cell phone so it’s a pain. It was planned parenthood wasn’t it? I will get back with you.
After reviewing what I wrote in reply, I see I missed a logic sequence. It's not the Dallas Morning News I would need to consult as primary source for Cruz's initial comments in response to a DMN article about ramifications of his being born in Canada (in regards to the consequence of that leading to Cruz having qualified for Canadian citizenship).
You had related that Ted Cruz had somewhere (you didn't say where, it may take some effort to track down a primary source which other news outlets and commentators afterwards re-told) was reported to have said that he wasn't aware that he (technically?) held Canadian citizenship, in addition to U.S. citizenship, and had been quoted as having allegedly become aware of that fact when coming across an article in the Dallas Morning News.
Which means that it doesn't matter that the DMN is a lousy source. What I'd need to find (and may look around for myself, later, you don't really need to feel entirely obliged) is what was THE primary source for what Cruz had gone on record as saying in reply, after the DMN published the first article.
To restate the point; what we need is Cruz's initial reply, or replies (revised and extended comments, lol).
It would be interesting to review to see if he was "lying" or if in more limited way just thought by some people to be lying (which is a little different, but can be overlapping subsets, whatever the actual truth of the matter is).
What doesn't make any sense to me would be that the guy would have been going along all his life -- if knowing that he was technically a Canadian citizen in addition to being a full-fledged United States citizen (not "naturalized", but by birth) and have not told anyone, or gone to Canada and investigated the laws there and had gotten official documentation in recognition of the fact, etc., if he had anything like lifelong awareness of the fact, in spite of knowing he was born in Canada and had a Canadian birth certificate.
Most nations do not share with the United States identical citizenship and naturalization laws. As for providing recognition of citizenship for reasons of jur soli considerations alone, my own thinking has always been along lines that the USA was about the only nation on earth which did so.
If Cruz was similarly less-than perfectly well informed of what Canadian laws there were about this, I'm willing to extend to him at least some measure of what's commonly referred to benefit of the doubt.
