Winston Churchill had an American mother, he is just as eligible as Ted Cruz.
Why then would Congress have bestowed honorary citizenship to him if he was a natural born citizen?
Tens of thousands of AmeriAsian children ( now adults) were born as the result of American GIs and foreign women. THEY DO NOT HAVE AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP. Some have appealed for residency in America.
Ted Cruz was born in Canada and resided there for at least seven years.
Rafael Cruz gave up his Cuban citizenship for Canadian citizenship prior to Ted’s birth. He admits this and refuses to comment regarding Ted’s mother’s status. Ted’s father finally became an American citizen about ten years ago., when Ted jumped into politics. Rafael has been a Canadian most of his life (35+ years) and a Cuban national for the first 30+ years. How is his son, born on foreign soil, considered natural born?
Eleanor Cruz declared and was verified a Canadian citizen which placed her and her husband on the voting rolls in Alberta, Canada. Prior to their time in Canada, she had British residency status for a decade. While campaign officials declared that Eleanor couldn’t have been a Canadian citizen, she has never actually denied her Canadian citizenship. The evidence indicates that she chose Canadian citizenship over the country of her birth.
It’s hard to understand how he could be considered an American citizen without a naturalization process. He is definitely not natural born to our soil.
