that’s obviously not the case

Actually, it's obvious to me that it is the case.

But, no matter. I really don't care.

Ted Cruz was born "Rafael Edward Cruz" December 22, 1970 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

His mother is US citizen Eleanor Darragh.

His father is Cuban citizen Rafael B. Cruz. (naturalized as a U.S. citizen in 2005)

Eleanor Darragh and Rafael B. Cruz were residents of Canada for years (at least four). They conducted business there as Rafael B. Cruz and Associates, Ltd.

Where they "permanent residents"?

Is Ted Cruz a "natural born citizen" of Canada?

Revised Statutes of Canada 1970:

You said>>>> “”””In 1790 there was no such thing as a “Dual citizen”. If a Woman married an American, she was automatically naturalized by marriage. (American Common Law) Congress even codified this back in the later half of the 19th Century.””””

Ok, But in the case of Obummer, his mother married a Kenyan.
Did this Kenyan Father become a naturalized US citizen by virtue of the marriage?... I don’t think so.

AND In the case of Cruz, his mother Married a Cuban man.
Did he stop being Cuban because of he married Cruz’s mother?

My Original question to Mr. Winston was.... How does this apply to Obummer or Cruz... assuming for the moment that Mr Winston’s facts were correct when he posted that

“””” ..... children born abroad to US citizen parents were to be legally counted as natural born citizens.”””

When both Cruz and Obummer were each born to ONLY ONE CITIZEN PARENT..... The MOTHER.... In Cruzes case Canada and in Obummer’s case ..... We don’t know.

Still waiting for an answer...

To clarify:

Eleanor Darragh and Rafael B. Cruz were residents of Canada from at least 1970, possibly earlier, until 1974.

People are so hungry for a conservative president. Yes Cruz would be a great one but I believe him to be ineligible. The dems will smile and keep their mouths shut about this while people push Cruz to run. Remember they tried to say McCain was not eligible because he was born in Panama?? Both his parents were citizens and he was born at an army base hospital - considered American soil. McCain was indeed eligible while sad to say Cruz is not. The dems will say nothing until it is too late to come up with a better candidate.

Are you a libtard pretending to be a conservative? You show all the signs...

Failing to explain your position while claiming others are wrong is a HUGE red flag.

You know, I’m getting pretty tired of jerks like you accusing me of being a “liberal” just because you’re a moron and I’m not.

I expressed my honest opinion and belief. If you don’t like it, well... I just don’t care. Because the emotional state of jerks is not my concern.

You calling someone “emotional” is the height of hilarity.

Obama naturalized as a U.S. citizen in 1983 is a statement of fact. You choose to ignore an eyewitness account of the fact because the custodians of the records have remained silent on Obama’s immigration status from 1971 to 1983.

Obot continually refer to Obama’s birth record because an examination of his immigration record proves he’s ineligible for POTUS.

I’ll tell you something interesting about me and then you post something interesting about yourself.

I used to work for the IRS in Cininnati. I personally know many of the actors involved in the targeting of tax exempt filings of conservative groups currently in the news.


phishing for the IRS?

What a relief that we have not opened the dangerous precedent of allowing a foreign-born person to become President of the United States of America!
