The “US Code” is only evidence of the “Statutes At Large” that govern. You have to go to the “Statutes At Large” and read and study them with an understanding that the terms in those statutes, if they are given a specific meaning within the statute, the common meaning no longer applies. These are called “terms of art” and unless one is learned in these terms & understands how to apply them, one will misinterpret the Statutes, therefore, they will also misinterpret the UC Code that is but a condensed outline of the actual “Statutes At Large” that make up the law.

The 2 major citizenship statutes that governed when Cruz was born in Canada are the 1952 & the 1965 Immigration & Naturalization Acts of Congress.

Look, you are so very smart, so freaking worldly and wise and my ignorance is on full display before you. I just told you that I went all through that and I didn’t see that definition. I’m not going all through it again. Just give me the exact place where it says what you have stated. I don’t see it. Tell me the in which line it’s located.
