My number one political goal this year is to get Donald J Trump elected President of the United States of America. Once that is done my next number one goal is to take care of this illegal alien posing as a US citizen:
Why has no one in the national media, national conservative talk show hosts or anyone else investigated, probed or asked questions about Rafael Edward (Ted) Cruzs birth right?
1 RAFAEL EDWARD (TED) CRUZ: Was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada in 1970.
2 Is Rafael Cruz a Natural Born Citizen of the United States of America?
3 Is Rafael Cruz a US citizen?
4 You decide:
a. Rafaels father had dual citizenship, as a Canadian/Cuban citizen at the time of Rafaels birth, which made Rafael a Canadian/Cuban citizen?
b. Rafaels mother was, maybe, an American citizen, would that make him a US citizen?
c. Rafael was born in Canada did that make him a Canadian citizen at birth?
d. Would Rafael Cruzs birth in Canada make him a dual citizen of Canada and Cuba?
e. If Rafaels mother was a US citizen at the time of his birth she had a duty to her son, if she wanted him to be a US citizen, to do the following: 1) Register Rafaels birth with the US Embassy or Consulate on a Consular Report of Birth Abroad (CRBA) 2) Once the CRBA was approved the US State Department would issue form FS-240 establishing Rafaels US citizenship.
f. Was this process ever completed for Rafael?
g. Can Rafael produce a CRBA issued in his name and the form FS-240 issued by the US State Department?
h. Can Rafael produce the CRBA or FS-240 with the US State Department signature, date and time stamped?
i. We know that Rafael does not have US birth certificate.
j. We know Rafael does have a Canadian birth certificate.
k. So the next question is, how did Rafael enter the United States from Canada? l. Was Rafael listed on his fathers or mothers Passport?
m. What passports did Rafaels parents travel on between the US and Canada?
n. Did Rafael travel on his own Passport or Visa, if so what was the origin of the documents?
o. When Rafael turned 18 years of age did he register with Selective Service?
p. If Rafael registered with Selective Service what identification did he use to establish his citizenship and does he have a draft card?
q. Did Rafael ever have a Green Card issued by the United States?
r. Was Rafael ever naturalized through the US Immigration process?
s. Since Rafael renounced his Canadian citizenship in 2014, and given the fact he probably is not a US citizen he would be a Cuban citizen living in the United States America as an illegal alien?
t. Why is Rafael using Ted as his first name?
u. Why does he never refer to himself as Rafael?
v. Is Rafael trying to hide his true identity?
w. Is Rafael trying to hiding through the use of an alias?
x. Do people who are hiding use fake names?
y. Is Rafael a fake person?
z. People who use aliases are usually hiding something, what is Rafael hiding?
aa. What is Rafael trying to hide? In my opinion, Rafael "Ted" Cruz talks about being a constitutional conservative, and espouses constitutional values, but only when it does not apply to him. Jim Buzzell.
Ok. Let’s see your proof. You can’t just say things without backing it up. And obviously, there will be a rebuttal by this woman, to any “proof” you show me.
And while you’re coming up with that “proof” I offer you this:
http://northamericanlawcenter.org/ted-cruz-not-legal-u-s-citizen-at-all/#.VscM-HNOkwj
The HIGHEST law of the US is the US Constitution.
There is no higher legal authority. Not UN laws, not the laws of Canada not the laws of any other nation. If you want to make your point, do it within the confines of the US Constitution. You might want to start with Article 1 Section 8 clause 4 and ask yourself, which branches of government has the specific authority to define ALL the rules with regards to naturalization.
Sure thing, but there is no proof one way or the other. The original video does not offer any proof and neither do I. We both offer our opinions.
First error occurs at about 3:00 into the video. The video states that Congress could pass a law that changes the definition and calls that supposition ridiculous. Yet the fact is, Article 1 Section 8 clause four specifically enumerated Congress with the power to do just that. Congress has unrestricted authority over all rules of naturalization. Under the rules of naturalization Congress gets to define who is and who is not a Citizen. Who needs to be naturalized and who is a citizen at birth, Further, the first acts of Congress, the founders specifically stated that: the children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond Sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born Citizens: provided, That the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose fathers have never been resident in the United States. This clearly shows the founders intent to not follow jus soli as justification for NBC status.
Second error occurs when the video attempts to hold Vattel as an authority higher than the Constitution in that she is attempting to ignore the above authority granted to Congress. Further, the very first Congress who had many of the same drafters and signers wrote the very first naturalization act of 1790 which was signed by George Washington. In that act, Congress SPECIFICALLY states that those born outside of the boundaries to US parents are US citizen and are natural born citizens. In other words, the framers of the constitution DID NOT REQUIRE being born on US soil to be born a citizen. So rather than rely on what the framers MAY have had access to, read or considered, it is a much clearer indicator of intent by observing what the framers actually passed into law.
[agreement 5:40] Ramsey said ... as a natural right, belongs to none, but those that have been born of citizens.... And this is the exact state of Sen Cruz. He inherited his citizenship from his mother at the time of his birth. Further when quoting Ramsey, be aware that Ramsey did not require the location or jus soli in his definition. This puts him in direct contradiction to Vattel
Third error is at 6:20 where the speaker states that no act of congress makes the NBC a citizen. This is incorrect. All nations have the organic right as a sovereign nation to define their borders and their citizens. All nations exercise this right via acts of their legislators. The founders knew this and specifically enumerated Congress with the authority over all rules of naturalization. This includes those who are aliens and those who are citizens at birth. Starting in the very first acts of Congress, this authority has been exercised. Those first acts have been repealed and replaced along with subsequent acts till one gets to the current code as expressed in USC Title 8 section 1401 - Nationals and Citizens of United States at birth.
The first general error of this video is the belief that jus sanguinis (right of blood) as the ONLY means of NBC conference. That is NOT the current law. The current law incorporates the 14th amendment which is now part of the Constitution and there is no higher legal authority. And before anyone starts with the intent of the founders I will remind you that the founders intent allowed slave owners and denied women the right to vote. Our laws have changed since the founders because the founders specifically allowed means to change the Constitution and laws of this nation.
Fourth error is at 9:30 that Marco Rubio has been naturalized. Rubio was a citizen at birth and has never been naturalized.
Fifth error is at 10:20 is with regards to Sen Cruzs mothers citizenship. Sen Cruzs mother was a US Citizen at the time of Sen Cruzs birth. This is a known fact.
Sixth error is at 10:25 in the assertion that only the fathers status counts towards inheritance of citizenship or NBC. In the very first naturalization act of 1790, the status of the father only requires prior residence within the US as part of the criteria for NBC. Further, this was met by Sen Cruzs father though the current law does not require it for citizenship at birth.
Seventh error at 10:40 the assertion that common law exceeds the Constitution. The Constitution is the supreme law of the land. Neither Common Law, nor English common law, nor Roman law, nor dictionary, book, script or written opinion exceeds the Constitution with regards to authority.
Eight error at 11:25 is the assertion that one must renounce citizenship in some other country to be a US citizen. Laws of other nations have no weight on US laws and as such are irrelevant. My citizenship would not change just because some other country asserts that I am a citizen. Some other nation could assert that I am a citizen of that country because of the amount of time that I spent in that country. My status as a citizen and NBC comes from the conditions of my birth and does not come from any other nations laws. Again, those laws are irrelevant to US law. The video is representing how they would like the laws of the US TO BE, not how they are. The genius of the founders is that they made a way for those who want to change this to be able to do so. If you dont like what the 14th amendment says, get enough of your like-minded individuals together to change it. Same with the laws of this nation.
