Didn't he ever need his birth certificate for anything?

Don't you realize that most countries in the world do NOT have birthright citizenship? So a birth certificate from another country does not automatically imply citizenship in that country if you are born to US citizen parents.

“Don’t you realize that most countries in the world do NOT have birthright citizenship?”

Don’t you realize that we’re talking about a HIGHLY educated legal authority from America’s most elite colleges . . who has filed more than 80 briefs in the Supreme Court and has argued 9 cases before the Supreme Court Justices (more than any other member of Congress)?
Are you not the slightest bit appalled that he only found out mere MONTHS ago that he was a Citizen of Canada???
We’re not talking about a third-world nation from across the planet, where little might be known about their legal system as it pertains to birthright citizenship, or the lack thereof.
We’re talking about our nearest NEIGHBOR . . Canada!
For Ted Cruz to not have been aware that he held dual citizenship is unbelieveable to me.
