Thanks for the ping.

DL, what would stop all the speculation would be for Cruz to unseal his Consular File. While he’s at it, he could unseal his college records as well. If people were allowed to examine the facts, speculation would necessarily cease.

If everything in Cruz’ Consular File is in order, why not show it? The rumors do Cruz no good. Straightforwardness, openness and transparency would not only be a welcome change of pace, but if they concomitantly verified Cruz’ citizenship claims, it would be win-win-win.

I don't know anything about his "Consular file." What I do know is that his mother can't give up her citizenship without an "affirmative act" to do so.

Had she committed an "affirmative act" of renouncement, it would be no secret. It would be registered with the State Department somewhere, and I assure you Trump's opposition research would have found it.

Therefore, speculation regarding the citizenship status of Cruz's mother is not only a waste of time, it is deceitful rumor spreading.
