UF just being a citizen is all that is required, then “why” did the Founding Fathers add the grandfather clause since they were citizens upon the adoption of the Constitution.
AND I will not support a Cuban, Canadian, American for President. I took an oath to defend and support the Constitution too many times and refuse to dishonor my oath.
Last comment on this subject .. two American citizen parents and be born in this country is required in order to be a Natural Born Citizen!!!!!
I just told you he IS a natural born citizen! Period!
“United States Congress, An act to establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization (March 26, 1790).
snip
And the children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond Sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born Citizens:
Provided, that the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose fathers have never been resident in the United States: Provided also, that no person heretofore proscribed by any States, shall be admitted a citizen as aforesaid, except by an Act of the Legislature of the State in which such person was proscribed.”
It doesn’t say that the Father has to be a citizen; it says the father only has to be a resident.
Also, please read the entire article from OP link.
Cruz is considered one of the best minds on law in this country already. His entry into the race should pretty much answer the citizenship issue.
