Cruz “character”:
1. Phony summonses mailed out, scaring people to vote for Cruz.
2. Claiming Carson quit, presinc captains told voters “vote for Cruz”
3. Campaigning in the 800 churches, showing video “vote for me” with his preacher/father stomping for him. Rafael Cruz is a 7 Mountain Dominionist and believes his son is the anointed one.
4. “Brilliant” lawyer, did not know he was Canadian citizen and that he is not Natural Born Citizen, not eligible for office of P or VP.
5. Making phony video advertising with lies about opponents.
6. Phony video about Rubio - Obama.
7. 7 Mountain Dominionist Church = Christian???
Just enough to beat Trump in IA, apologize, rinse and repeat?
Liar is the polite term for this Cuban. His father was pro-communist in Cuba, imprisoned by Batista, but now he is refugee?
IRREFUTABLE AUTHORITY HAS SPOKEN
(Oct. 18, 2009) The Post & Email has in several articles mentioned that the Supreme Court of the United States has given the definition of what a “natural born citizen” is. Since being a natural born citizen is an objective qualification and requirement of office for the U.S. President (and VP), it is important for all U.S. Citizens to understand what this term means.

Applies to Cruz and Rubio, both at the time not born to US citizens and on US soil.
None of your “irrefutable authority” is binding legal authority. You have a nice but incomplete collection of judicial musings (dicta) and academic opinions that would NOT compel SCOTUS to find one way or the other for Ted Cruz. In truth, as recent cases have said, naturalization does not apply to those who have their citizenship from birth by natural means, such as right of soil or right of blood. Those are natural born citizens, and under the law as it is today, SCOTUS would almost certainly find in favor of Ted Cruz, and by a vote of 8 to 0, based on binding legal authority.

I’m not sure he is a citizen. We only have Ted’s word that his mother was not in Canada long enough before his birth to become a Canadian citizen. We know his father became a Canadian citizen & it may be his mother became Canadian too. Who knows. He would unseal the records if he didn’t have something to hide.
We’ve never seen his CRBA or his passport.
