By law passed by Congress, and Congress has the constitutional authority to decide these things under Art I, Sect 8, Ted Cruz is a citizen at birth.

The use of the term “natural born citizen” at the time of the Constitution included those born overseas to US citizens.

Ted Cruz is a citizen at birth.

Correct

I dont think anyone in these threads have refuted that fact...

but Ted is NOT an NBC

as FReepers said about Obama “He could have been born in the Lincoln bedrtoom, he would still not be NBC”

Why ???

Bercause his father was not an American when he was born..

We have the same situation with both men

First scenerio

Obama born overseas, American mother, foreign father..

Ted Cruz born overseas American mother foreign father..

If we say Obama was born in Hawaii on US soil there he is more eligible than Ted Cruz..

Second scenerio

Obama born on US soil American mother foreign father
Ted Cruz born overseas American mother foreign father

but then there is that 19+ thingy

Third scenerio

Obama born overseas underage American mother foreign father
Ted Cruz born overseas age OK American mother foreign father

some FReeper tried to interject the marital status OK let’s do that

Fourth scenerio

Obama born overseas unmarried underaged American mother no father recognized thus totally American
Ted Cruz born overseas married age OK American mother foreign father passing on his nationality also due to legal marriage to mother

Fifth scenerio

Obama born on US soil unmarried age no important American mother no father recognized thus totally American and in his own right
Ted Cruz born overseas married age OK American mother foreign father passing on his nationality also due to legal marriage to mother

Notes:
1. Either we continue to insist on NBC and thus Ted Cruz is disqualifed...

2. or we make room for Ted Cruz thus making Obama a legitimate POTUS

3. If we open that door then any illegal alien anchor baby who just happens to be born here on US soil to illegal aliens with no under the jurisdiction of or loyalty or love for our country can be POTUS

and THAT dear FReepers is something I will not accept..

Right now any illegal alien has more eligibility to be your president than Ted Cruz who was born of an NBC mother if thats what you want..
