We did the same thing seven years later with our daughter. I assume Ted Cruz's mother did the same thing that my husband did and registered Ted's birth with the American Consulate.
BTW both our son and daughter were born in the same hospital about seven years apart. The midwife that was attending still recognized me.
the hospital btw does not exist anymore, I just found out via search that is closed in 1994.
Marco Rubio was born in Miami, Florida. It was rumored that Bobby Jindal was a presidential candidate in 2012, but he was not.
Ted’s mother being a natural born citizen is totally irrelevant.
Ted is not one, he was born a Canadian.
Natural born citizens are NATURALLY citizens because it is not possible for them to be anything else, born here of citizen parents.
Any other citizenship negates natural born citizen status.
The children of foreigners are PRECISELY who the founders were excluding.
They may be citizens but they are not natural born citizens as they also inherited the citizenship of their foreign parents, same way Ted Cruz has any claim to US citizenship.
