The animosity is mutual. You’ll never hear from me again.

Rest in peace, J. Scalia.
Roy Moore for Supreme Court justice.
The contradiction is Cruz wasn’t naturalized until high school.
Cruz is naturalized. Numerous cases support this.
I’m not sure. I couldn’t/wouldn’t watch Cruz that night. I heard from my sister how horrible, offensive, and uncomfortable it was, though.
Nothin but a cheap shot arguer who cant admit when he’s wrong.
No, it doesn't make him qualified, it makes him ELIGIBLE.
Most of them are "qualified".
When the CRBA was applied for and when it was issued is not the issue here. What matters are the who, what, when, and where at the time of birth, not when documents were created.
hahaha OMG contradiction
What part of that statements indicates that he was naturalized?
Under the common law, according to the court, "it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also.
Cruz is, of course, a U.S. citizen. As he was born in Canada, he is not natural-born. His mother, however, is an American, and Congress has provided by statute for the naturalization of children born abroad to citizens. Because of the senator’s parentage, he did not have to follow the lengthy naturalization process that aliens without American parents must undergo. Instead, Cruz was naturalized at birth. This provision has not always been available. For example, there were several decades in the 19th century when children of Americans born abroad were not given automatic naturalization.
[Opinion: Yes, Ted Cruz is a “natural-born citizenâ€]
Here’s why Republicans are fighting over Ted Cruz’s birthplace
Play Video1:45
Some of the Republican presidential candidates are going after Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.), saying his birthplace could count against him in a presidential election. Here are the facts. (Sarah Parnass/The Washington Post)
Article I of the Constitution grants Congress the power to naturalize an alien — that is, Congress may remove an alien’s legal disabilities, such as not being allowed to vote. But Article II of the Constitution expressly adopts the legal status of the natural-born citizen and requires that a president possess that status. However we feel about allowing naturalized immigrants to reach for the stars, the Constitution must be amended before one of them can attain the office of president. Congress simply does not have the power to convert someone born outside the United States into a natural-born citizen.
Shut up you dont know what you are talking about.
“The US Supreme Court has never held or ruled that native-birth on US soil was sufficient to make a natural born citizen of the US.”
WAITE, C.J., Opinion of the Court
SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
[[The form N-600 is an application for U.S. citizenship. The form we are discussing on this thread is proof that you are already a U.S. citizen. BIG DIFFERENCE.]]
Yes I realize that- This form shows who does NOT need to file for this form- that was the intent of posting about it- someone mentioned that a person needs to provide a CRBA and that that act constitutes naturalization- and this is NOT true- in order to get a CRBA one I believe must apply for a N-600 first, but this N-600 is NOT necessary for being a citizen- the whole point of my post about it was to show it is nothing ore than further proof that a person is a citizen but it is NOT necessary
