NBC be defined as a person born on the soil to two citizen parents. Minor correction, at the time of the founding citizenship came from the father. The mother could not confer citizenship since she automatically assumed the citizenship of her husband once she said "I do". So in the eyes of the founders Cruz is a Cuban. The naturalization laws of the early 1900 allowed him to be a naturalized US citizen but as best I can tell neither he nor his mom ever filled out the paper work. (Consular Report of Birth Abroad). So technically, sans a CRBA, Cruz is not even a US citizen.
