Thanks for your research and posts.

Doesn't the following put it to rest, or am I missing something?

:Currently, Title 8 of the U.S. Code fills in the gaps left by the Constitution. Section 1401 defines the following as people who are "citizens of the United States at birth:"

"Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic service included in this time)."

Therefore, no case against Cruz? ?

Which opinion is coming from a constitutional law professor. ?

If you adopt that position, other parts of 8 USC likewise operate to "fill the gaps." 8 USC 1402 through 8 USC 1407, and 8 USC 1409 all define citizens at birth.

Only if you believe the constitution can be amended by a statute, rather than an amendment.

Call me old fashion, but I don't think you can change the meaning of constitutional requirements set in 1787 by laws enacted in 1952.
