Cruz should not be president because;
He was frickin' born in Canada, eh?
Why do you think that would stop him becoming president?
"Natural born citizen" comes to mind. . . .

So what are you going to do about it?
(g) a person born outside the geographical limits of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents one of whom is an alien, and the other a citizen of the United States who, prior to the birth of such person, was physically present in the United States or its outlying possessions for a period or periods totaling not less than five years, at least two of which were after attaining the age of fourteen years

The courts have been pretty clear that if you have birthright citizenship you have natural born citizenship. Birthright citizenship is defined in 8 USC § 1401 which includes this section:
(g) a person born outside the geographical limits of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents one of whom is an alien, and the other a citizen of the United States who, prior to the birth of such person, was physically present in the United States or its outlying possessions for a period or periods totaling not less than five years, at least two of which were after attaining the age of fourteen years

As far as I know the question hasn't come up in the courts. However, based on the wording in the law I'd say that the child is still a natural born citizen. A naturalized citizen is still a citizen. Since the law doesn't exclude naturalized citizens nor does it only specify natural born/birthright citizens I see no reason why their child would not be granted US citizenship upon birth.

His Mom was unquestionably an American, so even if he was born in Kenya he is still eligible to be President.
To all the right-wingers who hate Obama so much but love Ted Cruz: Mr. Cruz was born in Calgary, Canada and nobody seems to be saying anything about how he can't be President.
I wonder why this is. Oh wait, Obama is black...

Barack Obama looks just like his maternal grandfather... he isn't adopted.

Because Cruz's mother is a US citizen he qualifies as a natural born citizen. Natural born citizenship is equivalent to birthright citizenship. In order to have birthright citizenship one must either be born on US soil or to at least one parent who is a US citizen. It's for this reason that even if Obama were born in Kenya he would still be a natural born citizen.

Who cares, he is the president.
An incompetent Marxist hack of a president, but still the president.
Get over it!!!
I care! As do countless other Americans. If he is sitting illegally, that he should not be president. That is the point. Very plain and simple. I have always been a skeptic of this whole birth thing, but if it is proven, then he needs to be removed. Then, only then, can we get over it.
With his trying to indirectly " modify" our constitution to spying on Americans and heads of government allies, why not pursue this and many other angles to oust this phony?edit on 10/28/2013 by GNOarmy because: (no reason given)

I saw the birth certificate released as a photoshop file.
Fake all the way - I counted over a dozen changes to the original files.
That doesn't happen when they simply "scan" a document as they claim to have done.
His mother's citizenship doesn't matter.

Well somebody had to play the race card. It took a while. I was suprised.
The issue is you MUST RENOUNCE your dual citizenship to be president. I am not advocating Cruz for president, but he never tried to hide it and he did offer to renounce it should it be neccessary. So NO, not that he is black. silly, just possibly illegal. Nice try on race-baiting though. You give it your best.

They're saying President Obama's is a forgery. Entirely different issue.

The ones claiming Obama's birth certificate is a forgery have not even seen Obama's birth certificate.... no real expert would claim a document that they have never seen a forgery.

They had it for download for people to look at so people have seen it, just not the hard copy. This is normal when checking for forgery you'll get a picture or a scan of the document first and if you still have trouble telling, you go and see it in person and look at it there. Thing is the scan they sent was at the forgery level of trying to pay for a pack of gum at a 7-11 with a black and white photocopy dollar bill, it was just that bad.
It's like looking at fake ID's from kids trying to get in to bar or work visas. Some look really good and hard to tell and need to be looked at in person the paper felt and weighed, other you wonder why the person even bothered paying for the fake ID it so bad.

Do you really believe that?
There's actually no evidence to suggest that Obama is adopted.
No *Public* evidence, but there is an ongoing investigation...not public either (yet).
The evidence is in the Hawaiian court records that remain sealed by law.

Maybe his COLB is fake, but the only people that care are the ones upset that their "team" didn't win.
