But I am not "conversant" on the relevant case law for that issue, and the case law is more complex for child born in the US than it is for a child born abroad.
And while the "anchor baby" (parents here illegally), and children born of foreigners here legally, are important issues, they are completely irrelevant in Cruz's case.
I will say, those babies have citizenship of their parents, so no matter what the US does, the babies are not born without a country.
The answer to my question is “yes”.
It’s well settled that those born on U.S. soil are “natural born citizens” by birth.
And if illegal aliens can give birth to the President, don’t you think two U.S. citizens temporarily abroad can give birth to the President, too?
It would be pretty bizarre to have it any other way, wouldn’t it?
