-- What he won't address is the fact that his FATHER also conferred citizenship to him: CUBAN citizenship. --

Yep - of exactly the same type, validity and force that his US "blood half" has.

-- Cruz can't possibly, by anyone's definition, be a Natural Born Citizen of the USA. --

Rhetorical cheat. citizen-at-birth, no naturalization ceremony, viola (violin, cello). It's a cheap trick, but the illusion works amazingly well. Add in the sauce that "it is settled law" (but don't show any authority), and all these smart lawyers agree, and it's a slam dunk, 90-95% of the public is duped.

-- I am still waiting to see his paperwork on when his MOTHER officially filed his `supposed' American citizenship with the Canadian authorities. --

As a matter of law, it doesn't matter if she did or didn't. He's a citizen by operation of statute. If the issue was adjudicated, the court would look for the same evidence that should have been (maybe was) presented to the Consular Office. The court could find him to be a citizen, and that would be conclusive of citizenship.

Ted’s campaign staff has maintained from the beginning of this fiasco, that they have a copy of his CRBA. The question is, why is he hiding it?
