Sure. I’ll explain it. Ted Cruz is a statutory citizen-at-birth. He is not a citizen under the 14th Amendment. The courts have never ruled explicitly on whether or not a statutory citizen-at-birth is the legal equivalent of a natural-born citizen under the Constitution, which is required for eligibility to the presidency.
I believe the courts would rule in his favor, but the issue is not “settled law” as some conservative pundits claim.
Anyone deemed to be a natural born citizen by Congressional statute is Constitutionally a NBC. The Constitution gave Congress sole authority to define citizenship in the Citizenship Clause.
Redo your research. The SCOTUS has already ruled on this.
We have had numerous candidates who have not been born in the US. e.g. Geo. Romney born in Mexico.
“Ted Cruz is a statutory citizen-at-birth. He is not a citizen under the 14th Amendment. ... “
Sounds like that’s good insight into the vagueness. Thanks!

All of your explanations are made out of pure Donkey excrement.
The confering of citizenship by an adult parent pre-dates the Declaration of Independence.
There is no statutory element to Cruz’ citizenship.
