I have “learned” that someone can “study” this issue for seven years, and still be wrong, and will ignore the law.
Citizen by birth IS a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN. Cruz IS a Natural Born Citizen through blood - his mom:
Many Constitutional experts know Cruz is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN. In fact, even Alan Dershowitz says: âHeâs a natural-born, not a naturalized, citizen.â
People become NATURALIZED citizens AFTER their birth, but Cruz did not have to, as he was BORN a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.
Both the citizen parent and the child had to meet the provisions of statute for citizenship to be granted.
Congressional grants of citizenship is naturalization.
Sun - a bit of illumination for you - Cruz would not have been a US citizen if not for filling out a bunch of NATURALIZATION forms. As in; to NATURALIZE.
And there is this - the Constitutional originalists concur that in the strictest sense the founders meant a child born on native soil to citizen parents. Had a law not been passed to “cover” situations like Cruz and his Canadian birth, he would not have been eligible to have his mom apply for his US citizenship. WHICH by the way, we have yet to see proof of having been done.
So, a reference for you is Binney. As in Horace Binney.
So, important for you to accept is that people who have done hundreds of hours of research BEFORE Cruz ever entered the picture are not doing so now just to blow Ted out of the water.
You do not know if you have not learned. You learn by doing your own independent research - SOURCE MATERIAL.
I have put in the time, and you have not. So you think you can school me? No. You cannot.
I will leave you with this, again:
Ted Cruz; “”As you know, I was born in Canada. My mother was a U.S. citizen at the time of my birth. She was a U.S. citizen from birth so, under U.S. law, I’m an American citizen by birth.” “Beyond that,” he added, “I will leave the legal consequences of those facts to others to worry about.”
That would never fly in court. Ever.
