Well, then doesn't it warrant a closer look?

No, not really. It seems to me that all speculation in this direction is just a wild goose hunt by people who do not understand this basic aspect of US Citizenship law.

Did she or did she not renounce her US citizenship. That's kind of an important fact.

If she did, it would be in the archives of the State Department, and there would be no way it could be kept secret.

It seems pretty obvious to me that she did not renounce her citizenship. Again, this is not the sort of thing you can do by accident or by neglect. You must make an affirmative statement which is recognized by the US Government that you are renouncing it. If you do not do this, you cannot renounce your citizenship.

Are you implying someone can go traipsing around the world, becoming a citizen here and there, and then just come back to the US, and everything is fine...welcome home citizen, good to have you back?

Pretty Much. Unless you have formerly sworn allegiance to another nation, and then only if it can be proven, you still retain your US Citizenship.

You can't lose your citizenship by accident or by neglect. You have to take some sort of "Affirmative" effort to renounce it. Swearing allegiance to another nation is one example of an affirmative action to renounce it.

Well, what about her character?

What about it? Her "Character" has nothing to do with US Citizenship law, and therefore nothing to do with Cruz's citizenship. She could have been the world's worst man-crazed whore, but it makes no difference as to the law regarding her child's citizenship.

So why should we discuss her character?

"Well, then doesn't it warrant a closer look?" The RATs would already have this information, ready to fire off a lawsuit.

Really? Then how was she able to vote in Canada?

Well, isn't that what happens when you become a citizen of a country? Again, how was she able to vote in Canada?

She could have been the world's worst man-crazed whore, but it makes no difference as to the law regarding her child's citizenship.

It does if she changed nationalities (and husbands) like you change your shorts. If she were a Canadian, or British subject at the time, Baby Ted isn't even a US citizen.

So why should we discuss her character?

Well, we discussed the character of Clinton's mother, Obama's mother, anchor-baby Rubio's parents, Kasich's parents. People get their behavioral traits through training from their parents.

Besides....it's fun!
