All natural born citizens as Ted Cruz is granted by his American mother. Of course you can’t drive without first getting a license, or practice law or a great many other requirements... such as be a certain age and time in country to be President. That goes without saying.

That doesn’t change John Tyler (1841-1845) was the First undisputed US born president.

If you want to continue your rant against the birthright of a fellow American go ahead. I’ll take my advice from noted expert on the matter Mark Levin.

Again, the status of the first Presidents up to Tyler is irrelevant to the discussion at hand, as the elegibility of all prior Presidents was explicitly provided for by a claus in article II that clearly doesn’t apply to Ted Cruz’s situation. So, the John Tyler point is completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand. Let’s at least be honest about that.

My “rant” as you call it has never been about Cruz, but your introduction of irrelevant points to the debate. We can have a debate about Cruz if you like. I’m game. But if you’d paid attention to my posts, you’d notice that I haven’t made an argument either way about whether Cruz is eligible or not. I only challenged you on two points. Point 1, that the John Tyler scenario has any relevance to the debate about Cruz’s elegibility. Point 2, that the Constitution grants equal rights to all citizens. Clearly it doesn’t.
