MISSION — Hours before the president talked about “bad people with bad ideas” entering the country at a rally in Florida, a United States senator strapped on a vest, walked through the thick Rio Grande Valley brush as Friday night turned to Saturday and found what he, President Donald Trump and many discuss in Washington D.C. The senator linked the findings to organized violent crime.
“There were more than one that were large, young men with a significant percentage of tattoos that might suggest gang affiliation,” U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, said Saturday afternoon, recounting an overnight ride along with Border Patrol. “I don’t know that, but those were the individuals that happened to be stopped on the patrol I was participating in.”
All of the people Cruz and the patrol encountered were apprehended, he said. But he did not encounter any families, Cruz added, which make up the majority of illegal apprehensions.

No, you are absolutely wrong.
She needed only his BC to demonstrate his date of birth; nothing else.

You know that you are incorrect. Everyone here who researched it even a little bit knows that you are incorrect.
Ted was in Canada until the age of four. The parents had a business in Canada, and his father certainly did apply for citizenship in Canada. Seems that the family initially planned on remaining in Canada as citizens.
To establish US citizenship rights for a child born in Canada the US parent had to make an appointment, fill out forms, present certain documents and pay fees. It was a process. You don’t show up with a kid and your passport, and a Canadian birth certificate for said kid, and they just had over a passport for the kid. He didn’t get a passport until he was a teen - per Cruz’ own bio. Ted C had to go through a process to renounce his Canadian citizenship also - forms, documents and fees. Fact; his campaign detailed that process he had gone through.
I read the State Dept website also - it seems to be circular and actually gives conflicting information, if you are reading beyond the snippet that supports what you claim. The Canadian housed US Consulate website gives clearer information. Forms must be completed, submitted, fees paid.
people can have fake passport.
And a fake birth certificate, driver’s license, ssn card, crba, etc.
Anything can be faked.
No...I think he becamd a US citizen. A few years back now. Maybe not 7, but it’s been a while.
I could be wrong but I think I read that he got naturalized.
Mark is the author of After America, which was a Top Five bestseller in the United States and a Number One bestseller in Canada; America Alone: The End Of The World As We Know It, a New York Times bestseller in the United States and a Number One bestseller in Canada; and his most recent bestseller, The [Un]documented Mark Steyn.
"A Marshmallow World", his Christmas single with Jessica Martin, reached Number Seven on Amazon's easy listening bestsellers, and Number 41 on their main pop chart. Their subsequent full-length Christmas album, Making Spirits Bright, reached Number Four on the jazz chart. Mark's latest CD is his cat album, dedicated to his own beloved cat Marvin: Feline Groovy: Songs for Swingin' Cats was a Number One jazz bestseller and a Top 30 album on Amazon's pop chart.
Steyn's human rights campaign to restore free speech to Canada led to the repeal by Parliament of the notorious "Section 13" hate-speech law, a battle he recounts in his book Lights Out: Islam, Free Speech And The Twilight Of The West.
Mark is also a popular guest host of America's Number One radio show The Rush Limbaugh Program, as well as the top-rated Fox News TV show Hannity. In Canada, he can be heard on AM640's John Oakley Show in Toronto. In 2017 he began his own Mark Steyn Show.

Notice in the first sentence of the above bio, he was introduced to the US Senate in 2015 by fellow Canadian Ted Cruz.
Cruz is not a Canadian, but wiki says Steyn is. I would have sworn he had naturalized.
The President said he is. And unless and until Ted produces documents that prove otherwise, that's good enough for me.
But since he renounced his Canadian citizenship, I don't know what he is now.
He’s the child of a US citizen, so he’s a US citizen.
Nope....needs more.
See my post #32...this thread.
.
You are wrong on all counts.
Births outside of country are common, and little is required beyond proof that the child is less than 8 years old when parents return.
If Ted had wanted Canadian citizenship, he would have had to request it. Since he didn’t there was nothing to renounce.
US pass[ports are not issued to children less than 6 years old; they always travel on parents’ passports.
There are no fees to pay.
You’re full of nonsense. My son has traveled with his twins to and from his vacation condo in Cabo 5 times and they do not yet have passports. They will have to get passports this year for the first time, as their 6th birthday is in this coming May.
You’re just imagining up stupidity.

>> “The President said he is” <<
How moronic!

Better watch out, Trump doesn't like it when people attack him.
Back from your nap I see.
Research it for oneself, Cruz also defended the Obama stimulus: http://www.thedailysheeple.com/read-ted-cruzs-2009-defense-of-obamas-stimulus-as-an-aid-to-americas-economic-recovery_042015
Also, he’s had to hedge his immigration views quite a bit in the Minority-Majority State of Texas; who knows how it could look in 20 years.
LePage married a Canadian wife, lived in Canada, & his daughters were born there and still live there with their mother who divorced LePage when they were still young after a 9 year marriage. The girls were 4&5 or so at the time of the divorce. It sounds like their mother had custody.
From the N600 application for citizenship certificate
My parents are divorced. Does this affect my ability to apply for a Certificate of Citizenship?
Your parents’ divorce does not affect your ability to apply for a Certificate of Citizenship if you automatically acquired citizenship before your parents’ divorce. If, however, your parents’ divorce occurred before you acquired U.S. citizenship, and you are claiming U.S. citizenship after birth, you will generally need to demonstrate that before 18 years of age you resided in the legal and physical custody of your U.S. citizen parent after a lawful admission for permanent residence. If the parent who is a U.S. citizen is not the parent who has legal and physical custody of you, you may not be able to automatically acquire U.S. citizenship.
Agreed
So, when did all of that happen for Cruz?
Cruz wasn’t living in a foreign country with a foreign custodial parent.
No, but he was a Canadian until 2014.
