Summing it up by facts:

Cruz Sr is not a Canadian citizen.
Cruz Sr is not a Cuban citizen.
Cruz Sr is an American citizen.

I believe that my original reply was a much clearer summary of the facts:

lj wrote, "Rafael Sr became a US citizen a few years ago. Up until that time, he was, from what I’ve read, a Cuban citizen."

and I replied, "Rafael Bienvenido Cruz came to the US from Cuba in May of 1956 when he was 18 years old to attend the University of Texas. He moved to Calgary, Canada in the 1960s and while living there for eight years, he became a Canadian citizen. He was not naturalized in the US until 2005.

So he was a Cuban citizen for about 30 years, a Canadian citizen for another 35 years and a US citizen for only the past 8 years, although he moved here over 57 years ago. "

I wonder how that could be considered a "transparant, snide, snarky little campaign against Rafael."

Cuban citizen for 30 years.

You seem also to be assuming he dropped his Cuban citizenship.

Too much detail...can't refute the facts, attack the messenger?
