Not true. Birth tourism, parents here legally with the expressed purpose of having a child on US soil.

Rubio might be. Cruz is not. Cruz is a citizen, just not the natural born variety.

Tourists aren’t residents and I agree their children should not be given citizenship and are anchor babies, you’re right there.

Children of LEGAL RESIDENT aliens like Rubio and Jindal are not “anchor babies” and are perfectly entitled to citizenship at birth.

Doesn’t pertain to Cruz.

As to CRUZ If you are born a citizen as he was by virtue of his mother being a US Citizen over the age of 21, the place of his birth and nationality of his father BEING COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT under the citizenship law at the time, you are NATURAL BORN. Natural born and naturalized, two categories of citizen, that is all. All these other stupid theories were made up on the Internet recently and have no basis in the text of the constitution or reality but only in a desire to disqualify someone they don’t want to win even those he oozes Americanism in contrasts to the original birther target, B Obama, to whom this garbage should have been confined.

If you don’t agree then your quarrel is with LOGIC and the dictionary.

Enough of this GD NONSENSE.
