There is no legal precedent, for we have not had a President born outside the US.

Therefore to claim it is “settled” is not accurate.

There is precedent on what to call a person (citizen-at-birth, no Naturalization Certificate) born abroad to a citizen mother and alien father. Mr. Bellei was naturalized US citizen. So is Cruz.

You want to bet money SCOTUS will reverse about 200 years of rock-solid consistent precedent to rescue Cruz? Or are you planning to fool the public and hope SCOTUS never takes it up, once the people have spoken?

The “proof” the current _res__ent posted on the white house web site is fake, he can’t prove he —was— born in the US.

Therefore he was born outside the US.

That’s what’s messing this whole thing up, nobody back then challenged the _res__ent in the right venue, at the right time.

Now we have a similar case; the only differences are the ages of the moms and the US statuses of the dads.

One mom too young to convey US citizenship, the other mom old enough.
One dad just “passing through” and never a US resident, the other dad a resident/green card holder/asylee.
