It's interesting that Ted Cruz was born a tri-Citizen. People need to realize that Mr. Cruz obtained his Cuban citizen from his father who had not yet naturalized at the time Ted was born. That is a fact. It is being reported that he officially renounced his Canadian Citizenship today but what about his Cuban Citizenship inherited from his father Rafael? Why is this being ignored by the media as well as his supporters? Don't get me wrong, I like Ted Cruz but this issue needs to be addressed.

Frankly when anyone that can come over gets treated like a citizen what’s the big deal about Cruz?
Not all countries do. Some require such children to be naturalized.
The thread seems ripe for an undead thread takeover. The former occupant is still trying to control autonomic functions after the zot.

Don’t you need to post some evidence, besides just making up something?
Interesting!. In 1967, the Democrats were preparing to challenge George Romney’s “natural born citizen” status, in court, if he had won the GOP primaries. Here is a rough draft of one of the Democrat’s legal briefs, explaining why a foreign-born person, even if a US citizen at birth, is not a natural born citizen: http://natural-borncitizens.com/nbcfiles/nbc_McElwee.pdf
According to literature published by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS), a person must be, at minimum, “native-born” (born in the United States) in order to be eligible to serve as President.
QUOTE: “Another right of all citizens is running for federal office. Many naturalized citizens are elected to federal office. However, to be president or vice president, you must be born in the United States. (Your Government and You, p.3)http://www.uscis.gov/system/files_force/USCIS/fil...
Don't expect flowers or take out, though...
But thanks.

Give my best to Hillary, Sammy. Toodles !
I think that may be true. It seems to me George Romney’s father defected to Mexico and George never had U.S. citizenship.
Your claim is that Ted Cruz is a Cuban citizen, didn’t you think someone would ask you for your evidence?
What is it?
I’m a staunch Palin supporter! Anything wrong with that? She is a natural born Citizen born to two U.S. citizen parents which gives her sole allegiance to the United States.
LOL!
George Romney was born to American parents and was an American citizen.
You don’t think his Cuban father passed his citizenship to Ted at his birth in Canada? If not why?
yeah. My thought too. Immediately.
Wasn’t that explained in post #6?
He’s still here, though...
No idiot, you are the one required to post proof of this claim you made in your zot vanity.
Why was my original title altered? It was ‘Intersting: Ted Cruz Gives Up His Canadian Citizenship But Why Not His Cuban Citizenship?
