If Cruz's mother was American, then he is American by birth right. WE have children born overseas all the time by military families. Are you going to suggest that they are NOT Americans?

Cruz's mother and father were registered to vote in Canada making Canada their chosen country. Kruz was then born. making him a Canadian by birth. He is a US citizen, but not by birth. Birth of children out of the country are okay because their military family's are US citizens. There is even more to this.

Very interesting. Thank you!

This is not relevant, because Cruz is done. There is no way the republican establishment will let him win. One way or another they will torpedo him.

Oh but it is relevant now with the facts underscoring his US citizenship, without a doubt are understood.....

And I do believe you are overlooking the voting public.

I am not saying I am for Cruz or that he should win but jst not wanting him is not sufficient argument.

Despite the happenstance of a birth across the border, there is no question that Senator Cruz has been a citizen from birth and is thus a “natural born Citizen” within the meaning of the Constitution. Harvard

Do you? Other than word of mouth, Obie's mother, is there any proof who his father is? Does it matter? I think it is hilarious that he may not even know himself, and he may have perpetrated the greatest joke in history. But, I don't care now. I was just using him as an example of the need for vetting Cruz and all the other candidates. Make them all take polygraph tests and drug test too. I had to have periodic polygraph and drug tests when I had a security clearance. The top position in the world should require the best security, right?
But, I realize that liberals don't care about national security, and think it's a joke.

If you received a security clearance, we should take a long look at what the requirements are after your hate speech !

Perhaps you might want to re-educate yourself on vocabulary meanings. Or, maybe you should not misuse the word "hate" just because you heard someone else use it before.

You obviously have no qualms with Hillary having a top secret clearance and then mishandling of 2300 classified documents. Your idea of "secure" might need to be reevaluated, and adjusted.

It already has been by Clinton....if it is inconvenient just put it on plain paper and send it in the mail!!!

What did the original writers of the Constitution have in mind when they wrote that you must be native born to hold the office of President. Be mindful of that period of time and of what they were fearful of and what they wanted to prevent.

Basically, they wanted to prevent foreign influence, period.

Even though, I won't be voting for Cruz unless he someone wins the nomination, I believe that he has more loyalty to country than Obama. I doubt Cruz would apologize for this country, or lead from behind (meaning: following). I have no doubt of Cruz's loyalty. I do doubt his ability to get along with his peers, let alone with the Democrats. But, then again that is pretty much an Obama trait also.

Donald Trump and John McCain have both brought up the fact that Rafael Cruz, Jr. was born in Canada and not on USA soil. Although Rafael has been up front about this, it may be a drawn out court case to determine if he is eligible to be President.

The fact that Rafael Cruz Sr fought along side Fidel Castro, a Communist, may be a bigger problem for the younger Rafael.

Cruz' campaign is getting legal advice on both issues but it looks like an uphill battle for the son of the insurgent.

All smoke. Cruz is a citizen. That's more than can be said for the current dictator.

Cruz doesn't have to get along with his peers. That's been the trouble. We have slipped so far that getting along is tantamount to sharing the sleeze and business as usual. Cruz has argued before the Supreme Court. He is brilliant and has a prodigious memory. No one owns him. I would never consider anyone who wants to "get along. Business as usual."
