Really? Eligible, even if most of their parents' and childhood lives are live out of country? Wrong, from what I've been reading. That is taken into consideration. Cruz very clearly was raised in America as an American by parents who also embraced American citizenship.

The sole purpose of the NBC requirements is to prevent a foreigner from becoming president. Why are you torturing it such as to prevent a patriotic authentic conservative citizen from becoming president?

What the hell is wrong with you?

Cruz very clearly was raised in America as an American by parents who also embraced American citizenship.

Cruz's father didn't become naturalized until 2005, and until 2014 Cruz was a dual citizen of Canada, and, according to a friend of his, knew he was a dual citizen long before the media broke the news to him in 2014.

Whatever the case, the amount of time you live in the US doesn't determine if you are a "natural born citizen."

The sole purpose of the NBC requirements is to prevent a foreigner from becoming president.

Which the founding fathers would have recognized him as being.
