And dishonest.
No documentation has suggested that the parents had to be natural born citizens for the child to be an NBC; just that both parents had to be citizens, and that the child was born in the USA. No legislation or act of congress can affect such a child's citizenship. They cannot be citizens of any other nation; neither by inheritance, nor by geography.
Cruz is a fraud, and every American who supports his bid for the presidency is a traitor to the USA and its constitution.
Well he writes for Mark Levins' Cruz super PAC so yes he is an idiot, just like his boss. And Ted Cruz was naturalized by the 1934 Naturalization act and follow on legislation. If an act of Congress makes you a citizen you are a naturalized citizen.
