It seems the Cruz natural born citizenship thing has some strange history for sure.
Edward Cruz’s mother married Alan Wilson of Fort Worth Tx back in the day. They went to England where at some point they divorced. Eleanor remained in England and later on had a child that had a crib death and is buried in England. She used the last name Wilson for that child even though she was divorced and Alan Wilson says the child wasn’t his.
She later on came back to the US, hooked up with Rafael Cruz, moved to New Orleans and later Canada. Rafael filed with the Selective Service on July 26, 1967 while in New Orleans.
Their son Edward was born in Canada, Dec. 22, 1970. Later on they moved back to the US, divorced and Rafael got US Citizenship in 2005.

Well that’s all the proof we need. Mothers birthplace Delaware. Thanks for the link to his birth certificate. Now can the loons please stop saying he’s not a natural born citizen? Clearly he got his US citizenship through birth via his mother. Anyone saying otherwise is just trying to misdirect and confuse people (or they are idiots).
As of Monday my name was placed by the California Secretary of State on the June 7th presidential primary ballot line of the AIP.
Which means that at this point in time I almost certainly have legal standing to challenge the natural born citizen status of both Cruz and Rubio.
I’m not saying that I will do so. But it’s certainly very tempting, I will admit, because I don’t believe either of them to be constitutionally-qualified.
Still weighing the pros and cons. And there are most certainly some of both.
But whether I do or not, if Cruz advances, Trump is right, he is going to be hit by a flurry of suits regardless.
