That's not the case. It's accepted (true or not) that Obama was born in the USA. Also, Obama's mother lived in the USA after Obama's birth; Cruz's mother did not, and she didn't return for some time.
Accepting Cruz's situation is a further step down the slippery slope away from US exceptionalism provided by the Constitution.
I agree with the posters who say if it isn't resolved the elite may find a way to finagle for those convention votes.
Unless the Kenyan BC just happens to appear after it is settled SURPRISE.
Grania,
Being accepted as true doesn’t mean it is.
O posted a fake doc on the white house web site, and hasnt shown a genuine one since; therefore he can’t prove he was born here.
The mom’s residence in the US at the time of the kids birth had to be 5 years after the age of 14.
In 0’s moms case she was only 18.
No way is 0 a US citizen, much less natural born.
Cruz’ mom was well older than 19 when Ted was born; thus he got US citizenship thru his mom. It remains to be seen if he’s natural born though.
