Cruz’ birth cert is also avsilable; its been posted on FR
So both are available..
Beandog, good points!
And the law about us citizens who marry foreign born, lose their citizenship was not in effect when she got married to either Mr Wilson or ted’s dad.
Teds mom was a citizen when he was born and had been in the US long enough to be able to convey citizenship to Ted.
Even if the crba may have been filled out later on for Ted’s passport, all the crba did was show what already was, that he was a US citizen.
So both he and his mom were and are us citizens.
The wrangle is over the ‘natural born’ part...
In your sisters case, she was over 18 when the paperwork had to be done.
In teds case he was under 18; his mom did it for him, and thus he had his proof of being us citizen at birth established.
Another point, beandog’s post below, about teds moms last name on his birth cert....

Looks like she didn’t take her maiden name back after divorcing Mr Wilson, then she married Ted’s dad, taking the married name Cruz.
So when it came to the line about ‘name before marriage’ , she put down ‘wilson’.
I would thought old man Rafael would want to go back to Cuba to pal around with his old friend Fidel, who he fought with in the jungles against the US backed Batista. Strange how no one brings up Teddy’s communist father.
I probably won’t be around to worry about it, but this country needs to wake up and try to save what is left of the greatest nation that ever existed. The Constitution did pretty well in keeping us a strong country until the liberals started chipping away and destroying it. Now, the only thing that seems to matter is “feelings” and not “Facts.” You of course will make your own decision, but my grandchildren will have to pay the price of failure now to defend the Constitution from the “Living” Constitution enthusiasts.
You most certainly did dismiss out of hand the Law of Nations and Vattel when you stated “There are other antiquated notions, etc, etc,” Show some respect for the work of a brilliant Swiss expert on Law which was the absolute reference for our Constitution. It is neither “antiquated,” nor a “notion.”
The requirement that the president command in chief be natural born is a dictum which cannot be changed without an Article 5 Constitutional Convention and resulting referendum of the states. That’s just the way it is. Ignore it at your peril. Realize what it got us the last time it was ignored.
He’s lacking showing his Naturalization Form. N550 !!!
Unless otherwise stipulated, U.S. laws were more directly founded upon English common law rather than, as you previously asserted, having been founded upon Vattel's views, definitions and discussion of English common law among laws of other nations also.
Yet if we are to be held figuratively captive by Vattel (and to some extent I think that we should) then I ask you now, rather than to aim lecture towards me, try reading what else I said to another here in reply to that individual having posted a jpg image of portion of legal argumentation which was allegedly Vattel's own words.
See reply number; #582 that was in response to #566 wherein what is alleged to be from Vattel is in view.
Soak it all up -- and where would that leave us but that Senator Cruz is a citizen by birth -- unless you would prefer it that suffrage laws (in regards to women having equal citizenship rights, fairly well all across the board) be rolled back.
You sure you want to go there?
I’ll stand exactly where i am. Cruz is not eligible. Period!
Did you think about and understand what I've been saying here (could you see what I've been driving at)?
“It’s not those that resisted Romney that gave us Obama. It’s those that supported him.”
Half-witted statement that ignores the fact that those who couldn’t hold their nose and vote, don’t want to accept their responsibility in giving us Obama for 8 years.
Even with Scalia gone, you rock-heads can’t see your own ignorance.
Idiot. We *did* hold our nose and vote. It got us nowhere. Now you want us to do the same thing again?
What’s that saying about insanity? Do the same thing and expecting different results? It’s sheer stupidity to believe someone as unpalatable as Trump can win in the general. At least this time, I’ll vote with clear conscience by writing in a candidate in which I actually believe.
Given AMNESTY in 1986 by President Reagan? His parents failed to file a CRBA form which is required by US law.
Ted’s parents did not fill out the required form until 1986.Did Cruz’s parents ever file a CRBAform. or apply for amnesty per President Reagans Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986?
