US Senator Ted Cruz, from Texas, has been under fire in his bid for the White House due to his Canadian citizenship records which make it quite clear that he does not meet the Constitutional "natural born Citizen" requirement for the Oval Office, despite the opinion letter from his Harvard friends.
Following a total lack of vetting on Barack Hussein Obama in 2008 and 2012, many insist that no one ever enter the Oval Office again without proper vetting, including proof of meeting all Constitutional requirements for office. Obama's massive destruction of our Constitutional Republic has placed the issue of Constitutional eligibility on the front burner for many Americans, and partisanship has nothing to do with it.
In the effort to vet every 2016 presidential candidate, Cruz, who had once stated that both he and Barack Obama were ineligible for the Oval Office, found himself under tight scrutiny from the same people who tried to stop Obama from taking the Oval Office via fraud. Ted placed himself in the crosshairs of constitutionalists who do not care about partisan politics, by seeking an office he is not eligible to seek.
In investigating Cruz eligibility for the Oval Office, his eligibility for the US Senate came into question...
The Constitutional requirements for the US Senate are as follows;
"No Person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty Years, and been nine Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State for which he shall be chosen."

Birther joke:
“Edward had a problem, he called up a doctor, “My wife is pregnant and her contractions are only 5 minutes apart!”
The doctor asked, “Is this her first child?”
Edward was enraged, “No! This is her husband!”
According to Article 1,S8 of the US Constitution, Congress was given the authority to establish uniform rules of naturalization. Naturalization is the process by which one who is born a citizen of another country becomes a citizen of the United States. Congress was given no authority to declare as citizens, children born to US citizen parents because that would have been redundant and bad law.
Therefore, since Cruz is a citizen via the rules of naturalization established by Congress since 1940, how does that entitle him to be a natural born citizen where there would have been no authority for Congress to act on his behalf so to make him a citizen?
Nevertheless, Congress has continuously passed laws, since 1790, with provisions for citizenship at birth to those who are born to US citizens and who, depending on the era, meet different other requirements.
They would cite the provision in the Constitution that permits them to pass necessary law that enables them to put into action those powers they’ve been granted by the constitution.
All I can say on this issue is that it seems more than a little odd that Cruz has not handled this in a forthright manner and put it to rest.
That adds lots of credence to the argument that he is not NBC qualified to be POTUS.
Provide the proof and be done with it Ted. Please.
If you can.
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution
Those who were citizens at the time of the adoption of the Constitution were ALL born as subjects/citizens of another country, therefore, ALL citizens at the time of the adoption of the Constitution were for all intents and purposes of the law, ‘naturalized’ citizens as they all had to swear an oath to cause of the revolution.
And since Cruz was not born before the Constitution was adopted, Cruz, therefore, is not eligible. It's not complicated and it sure shows how far conservatism has changed to adopt liberalism so to suit their political desires.
Disagreements aside, I couldn't help myself, it was too good of an opportunity to pass up & we all need a good laugh through all of this.
Ted Cruz is claiming to be a constitutional conservative, yet he refuses to release the documentation that he is eligible to become president, or even eligible to hold his current US Senate seat.
He could have cleared this up, and it wouldn't be an issue. It is an issue, and it is not going away. Until proven otherwise, Ted Cruz is a fraud.
Like I said. Insanity has infected this forum.
A natural born US citizen is “born in the USA” of two citizen parents. Cruz is a natural born Canadian at best.
A natural born US citizen is “born in the USA” of two citizen parents. Cruz is a natural born Canadian at best.
Cruz is a natural born Canadian at best.
“He has the same citizenship documentation as almost every other natural born citizen.”
How do you know that?
Personally, I don’t believe that Ted Cruz did not know that he had Canadian citizenship. That just seems unlikely to me given that he’s a super lawyer, a senator, and was contemplating a run for the presidency.
However, I’m fairly certain that according to current law he is eligible to run for the presidency.
If the Scotus were ever to decide the meaning of NBC, then I think they might decide he is not.
Personally, I don’t think that will ever happen. I’d prefer to pass a new amendment that (1) ends anchor baby citizenship, and (2) limits the presidency to 3rd generation American citizens on both paternal and maternal sides, and (3) requires them to have spent 80% of their years before 21 in the USA, parental military assignments excepted. I want the president to be loyal to the US and irrefutably a part of the country.
And like I said, the issue is not going away. Watch and see if the fraud gets more or less vote percentage as the primary moves forward.
For A2,S1,C4 we must look to the laws AT THE TIME the Constitution was adopted and those laws stated that women & children were of the nationality of their husband/father respectively. One family, one nationality as God created it to be.
Those are very good ideas, and would make much more sense than the current system. Whatever that really is.
Natural born citizens have a US birth certificate.
To suggest that Cruz is not even a US citizen is jumping the shark.
That simply isn’t supported by the facts.
I’m outa here.
