You said: “The most recent law of all does not apply. The Constitution cannot be changed on the whim of a few politicians temporarily in the majority in congress. There is a very long, drawn out affair which is required called an Article V Convention.”
...............

So, according to you, the recent law does not apply, NOR does the oldest law, which has been posted many times on this forum.

Geroge Washington SIGNED this bill and he was a Founding Father. The First Congress CONSISTED of our Founding Fathers.

Cruz IS a Natural Born Citizen through blood - his mom:

“United States Congress, “An act to establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization” (March 26, 1790).
snip

And 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: Provided also, that no person heretofore proscribed by any States, shall be admitted a citizen as aforesaid, except by an Act of the Legislature of the State in which such person was proscribed.”

It doesn’t say that the Father has to be a citizen; it says the father only has to be a resident.

Sen. Cruz’s mother, of course, was born in the U.S.A., so was a Natural Born Citizen which makes Ted Cruz a Natural Born Citizen.

Again, this is what George Washington signed.

So do you think George Washington, et al, would have changed their minds so soon?

It seems you don’t like the old law, and you don’t like the newest law either:

“The bottom line in the case of Cruz, who was born in Canada in 1970, is that his father was an immigrant from Cuba and not a U.S. citizen at the time of young Cruz’s birth, but his mother was born and raised in the United States. The law in effect then, and now, made Ted Cruz a U.S. citizen at birth.

Please check out the law: “8 U.S. Code 1401, that spells out in detail who is a citizen. (snip) And then there are the people who are born outside the United States to one parent who is a U.S. citizen and the other who is an alien, provided the citizen parent lived in the United States or its possessions for at least five years, at least two of them after age 14. ..”
