Do you know when Cruz's father became an American citizen? The answer is in 2005 !

Do you know when Cruz's mother became an American citizen? The answer is when she was born!

American law says that Cruz is NOT eligible and the more you and other say that, the stupider you all look!

Actually American law says Cruz is eligible. 8 U.S. Code § 1401: The following shall be nationals and citizens of the United States at birth; (g) a person born outside the geographical limits of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents one of whom is an alien, and the other a citizen of the United States who, prior to the birth of such person, was physically present in the United States or its outlying possessions for a period or periods totaling not less than five years, at least two of which were after attaining the age of fourteen years...

...and the more you and other say that, the stupider you all look!

We're so stupid we actually take the time to research the issue and find the applicable laws. What's your excuse?

I know the "what's your excuse" wasn't aimed at me, but for purposes of finding Cruz eligible under the US constitution, you should be able to do so from the text of the constitution. Some parts of the constitution can be evaluated without a statute. 35 years old? Check, 14 years of residence? Check, NBC, well, what does the constitution say about citizenship, first.

If you can't make a person a citizen using the constitution, then you sure can't make them a natural born citizen.

Or is the constitution not applicable?

Or is a statute superior to the constitution?
