A law can’t change the constitution or what the original constitutional meaning of the term Natural Born Citizen is. Note that the new law did not include any definition for a natural born citizen - the term has simply been abandoned. So, the only time it has been defined in U.S. law Ted Cruz clearly would have qualified since his mother was U.S. citizen and his father had been a legal U.S. resident.
Ted Cruz’s father wasn’t a legal US resident at the time of Ted’s birth and the Naturalization Act of 1795 which is still law stipulates two citizen parents, not a legal resident.
Please provide the exact words in the Constitution that defines nature born citizen.
This is exactly correct. Only a constitutional amendment can change the constitution.
Both of these were laws. Natural born citizen is not defined in the Constitution. The first version assigned a meaning to a persons status based upon a set of circumstances. The second version, which repealed the first version, changed the meaning using those same circumstances. The first meaning no longer applies.
