“My son was born overseas in 1972, to two American citizens.”

Your case is exactly like McCains. That is not an issue. However Cruz’s father was not an American citizen. May be an issue and might not be an issue. Plus he was born in Canada and had from what I heard Canadian citizenship. Again I don’t know if that matters or not.

Doesn’t matter- His mother was- and as a sovereign citizen her child is a natural born citizen- IF the non citizen father living abroad wanted to take the child away to become a citizen of another nation, he would not be allowed to under the law because the child is a US citizen regardless of where hte4 child is born- as long as them other met the requirement for citizenship- and she did- the child is a US citizen

Legally no it doesn’t matter- Dual citizenship is allowed under certain circumstances and with dual citizenship compliant countries-

I cannot conceive of being eligible to run for President with a dual citizenship. My son had dual US/German and had to renounce his German citizenship when he registered for Selective Service.

As much as I adore my son, I would never argue that he was natural born. Apparently, being military changes that but I’m not sure on that.
