“Obama was born in the USA (Hawaii) Cruz was born in Canada, see the difference? Both only had one American parent (mother).”
Obama’s mother was 18 when he was born. To meet the qualification I believe that she would have had to have been in US territory for 4 years after her 16th birthday. She was too young to meet the qualification since she had been out of the country
Five years after the age of 14.
See post #116.
0’s mom was too young to convey us citizenship to 0.
0’s birth cert is fake, therefore he can’t prove he was born in the US (otherwise he would have shown a real one).

What are the rules for people born between December 23, 1952 and November 13, 1986?
Again, children born abroad to two US citizen parents were US citizens at birth, as long as one of the parents resided in the US at some point before the birth of the child.
When one parent was a US citizen and the other a foreign national, the US citizen parent must have resided in the US for a total of 10 years prior to the birth of the child, with five of the years after the age of 14.
An exception for people serving in the military was created by considering time spent outside the US on military duty as time spent in the US.
While there were initially rules regarding what the child must do to retain citizenship, amendments since 1952 have eliminated these requirements.
Children born out of wedlock to a US citizen mother were US citizens if the mother was resident in the US for a period of one year prior to the birth of the child.
Children born out of wedlock to a US citizen father acquired US citizenship only if legitimated before turning 21.
