According to the 14th Amendment, all citizens have equal rights and immunities.

Regardless of the circumstances of their birth or origin.

“According to the 14th Amendment, all citizens have equal rights and immunities.”

That is a demonstrably false statement. The 14th Amendment is what is described as a general clause, whereas the natural born citizen clause and a number of other clauses in the Constitution proper are specific clauses. The code of Statutory Construction does not allow the general clause of the 14th Amendment to negate the specific clauses of the Constitution proper which do provide for unequal rights.

Ted Cruz isn’t a 14th Amendment citizen.
