Cruz name keeps getting centered in this discussion but do you leave out Rubio?
He was born in 1971 to two Cuban immigrants who came to America in 1956 and
were naturalized in 1976.
Or is Rubio a natural born citizen regardless of parentage citizenship because he
was born on US soil?
How about all the children left behind by American servicemen in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan etc?
Are they all also Natural Born Citizens?
No, Rubio is not eligible either. Neither was odinga. Neither is Cruz. Neither is Jindal.
Neither are the ever-how-many sub-human spawn born to American women who go to rut with the sub-human muslims, whether born here or in their Middle East cess-pools.
The founders were rightly concerned about foreign influence at the presidential level. This crop of globalist seem determined to end the USA, and they keep pushing candidates that are not eligible, who will further chip away at the US constitution.
Aside from being factually wrong, Cruz Mother was in no way a Cuban nor an migrant what is your point ?
Exactomundo-—Rubio is definitely NOT a natural born citizen. At the time of his birth— his parents were, neither one— were NOT US citizens. It cannot be ascribed after the fact.
Chester A. Arthur was President. His mother was an American born (in Vermont) citizen. His father an Irish to Canada immigrant who applied for citizenship in the US and was granted it 15 years after Chester was born. Then there is the remarkably similar effort by Democrats to say Arthur was born in Canada— which, at that time if he had been (instead of, as it was said, in Vermont) would have meant foreign born. Not today. Back then they hired a Democrat operative attorney, one Arthur Hinman, to prove he was NOT— and botched this first by saying Arthur was born in Ireland.

And fwiw— which, to the elitist Lefties, should be A LOT:

Under our modern definition— which was seriously obfuscated by obamaumao and his wayward crackpot mom and WHOEVER was his dad... with multiple birthplaces (Kenya, or HI take your pick and ask the families— and which HAD to be HI and we still don’t know this without fabrication). In short, intentionally obfuscated.
Not Mr. Cruz. His Mom was/is an American citizen at the time of his birth. As was Chester A. Arthur’s mom.
“Or is Rubio a natural born citizen regardless of parentage citizenship because he

Defines “Anchor baby to the T”. Not a “natural born citizen”.
I think Rubio is not an NBC. That flies directly in the face of the importance of American citizenship and keeping out people who might very well grow up with loyalty to countries other than the U.S. because of their foreign parents.
