Cruz’s Canadian birth certificate is too controversial and will be a major distraction. It will be like Romney’s mormonism in the previous election.
As much as we would like to think that most people will get past it, the fact is that many never will. The discussion will never end and nobody will change their minds.
Cruz, Rand Paul and Mike Lee have an almost identical voting record. The smart play here is for Rand Paul to run for president and for the other two to stay in the sidelines so as not to divide the vote. Then Cruz can be appointed attorney general and Mike Lee treasury secretary. Just my opinion.

It appears to me the only way this is going to be resolved in case such as Cruz and Rubio and Jindal is for the SCOTUS to accept a case. The only way SCOTUS is going to accept a case is if the test presented in Jones v Bush is applied.
I am not trying to argue the merits of any case, but I think the courts would pretty cite the 14th amendment in its decision. I can count at least 6 votes now.
