Take note, RedWulf:
Presidents who were not citizens at the time they were born:
George Washington
John Adams
Thomas Jefferson
John Quincy Adams
James Madison (key author of the US Constitution)
James Monroe
Andrew Jackson
William Harrison
All born citizens of Britain.
Just sayin’
I’m a Cruz supporter, but that isn’t the best argument as those guys were accounted for in the wording of the Constitution.
However, none of them were ever voted on to be a nominee! All were nominated in smokey back-room meetings!!

And the guy not on that list is Alexander Hamilton because he was born in the British West Indies. And a good thing to. Hamilton while brilliant was not fundamentally an American in temperament and would have made a disastrous president, just like Ted Cruz.
That’s why they were Grandfathered in at the time of the adoption of the Constitution. There were no 35 year old natural born citizens until 35 years after the adoption of the Constitution.
They were not citizens but subjects of the King of England.
