My reading on this is that only one of his parents was a US Citizen at the time of his birth. And he was born outside the U.S.

If there is evidence of his father having US citizenship at the time of Ted’s birth, then this might be a grey area.

I am a strong supporter of Ted Cruz, but have seen nothing that indicates he meets the Constitutional qualifications for President.

The Presidency is the only office that has that requirement. The law is what it is.

This is a good ruse to get the SRM talking about him, making him a public figure.

But in the meantime, he’s trying to stop and hopefully help roll back all the crap POSHITUS had dumped on us. He will inspire our ‘14 candidates and get the momentum rolling again.

GO CRUZ!

**************

Everything I’ve seen indicates Cruz’s father became a citizen in 2005.

snip
Cruz brags about how his Cuban father fought with rebels supporting Fidel Castro against dictator Fulgencio Batista in the 1950s, before Castro announced that he was a communist. Rafael Cruz fled the country and graduated from the University of Texas at Austin, then moved to Canada to work in the oil fields near Alberta, where Ted Cruz was born. The family eventually moved to Houston, and his father became a U.S. citizen in 2005.
