Therefore, both Marco Rubio (born a US citizen by virtue of birth in the US to non-citizen parents) and Ted Cruz (born a US citizen by virtue of birth abroad to a citizen parent) are natural born citizens, and eligible to the Presidency.

Cruz is a citizen by virtue of naturalization statute.

A statute addressing the very specific circumstance would not have been created if it were not needed.

Yet here you are claiming that a naturalized citizen is a natural born citizen.

Such foolishness. Such incredible foolishness.

Yet here you are claiming that a naturalized citizen is a natural born citizen.

Such foolishness. Such incredible foolishness.

Well, obviously the Signers of the Constitution believed that Congress, under its power to "create a uniform rule of naturalization," had the power to specify which foreign-born persons were to be counted as "natural born citizens" and have the ability to be elected President, because 40% OF THEM, INCLUDING PRESIDENT GEORGE WASHINGTON WHO PRESIDED OVER THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION, PROMPTLY PASSED A LAW DOING EXACTLY THAT.

So when you describe this belief as "foolishness," you are calling the Framers of the Constitution fools.

Once again, you illustrate that there's no length of bat****ery birthers won't go to.

If the Framers themselves disagree with you, then their ideas are "foolishness."
