Actually this has been addressed. There is an exception for children of American’s born overseas to parents in the service of the country. This was originally meant for diplomats but before McCain ran for President he asked congress to rule on whether his father having been in military service posted overseas at the time was sufficient. Congress ruled that it did and that he was Natural Born and eligible to be President. Cruz should have made a similar petition.
Ruled?
A "sense of the senate" is not a law, and the senate is not congress.
