“NATURAL BORN (Anyone who obtains citizenship by birthright)
Naturalized (Anyone who was not a citizen at birth but becomes a citizen through a formal Naturalization application and process)’
I’m willing to believe you if the facts are on your side, but how is Cruz eligible to be “natural born,” obtained via “birth right,” when he is born in a different country and has only one parent who is actually from the U.S.? Does the law make room for someone not born in this country, with only one U.S. citizen parent, to yet be considered a natural born citizen?
Again, go to the US Department of State Website, and look at the passport application. You will see questions about where you were born. Those born abroad are linked to information that describes the laws on Birthright Citizenship at various times in our history.
There are age requirements for the parents, or PARENT, and residency requirements.
Cruz is qualified.
Please read Title 8 section 1401 in it’s entirety but pay particular attention to subsection G which is the section that qualifies Mr. Cruz as a citizen at birth.
You will get talking head, "herd mentality" out of that one. Might as well ask a parrot.
