Did you miss the Obama birther wars entirely?
I disagree with every part of what you say. Their is no definitive law, or we would not be having the discussion. The proponents of blood and soil citizenship have put up many pieces of evidence, as the author of the article does, and even anb eminent law professor from Harvard says it’s undecided.
You know better than Lawrence Tribe? You say it’s so decided, show your evidence.
re: the claim there is no definitive law:
Behold the law: [please review (g) below. As you can see, it fits Cruz perfectly]
U.S. Code Title 8, Chapter 12, Sub-chapter III, Part 1401
Nationals and Citizens of United States at birth
The following shall be nationals and citizens of the United States at birth:
(a) a person born in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof;
(b) a person born in the United States to a member of an Indian, Eskimo, Aleutian, or other aboriginal tribe:
Provided, That the granting of citizenship under this subsection shall not in any manner impair or otherwise affect the right of such person to tribal or other property;
(c) a person born outside of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents both of whom are citizens of the United States and one of whom has had a residence in the United States or one of its outlying possessions, prior to the birth of such person;
(d) a person born outside of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents one of whom is a citizen of the United States who has been physically present in the United States or one of its outlying possessions for a continuous period of one year prior to the birth of such person, and the other of whom is a national, but not a citizen of the United States;
(e) a person born in an outlying possession of the United States of parents one of whom is a citizen of the United States who has been physically present in the United States or one of its outlying possessions for a continuous period of one year at any time prior to the birth of such person;

End of law
Also the Harvardian Law Professor who now claims Cruz is ineligible was the lawyer for Gore in Bush v. Gore in 2000.. and he lost that case too... and he is a big time far-left Hillary supporter.
