So either he is an illegal alien or a natural born citizen.

Non sequitur. He could also be a naturalized citizen.

Once you've made such an obvious mistake, any credibility you might have had evaporates.

You must have skipped around while reading that. The writer made a few salient points that, when log is is applied, bring him to the conclusion he made.

I’ve seen no evidence that Cruz was naturalized. Yes, I know what that means, as I had to go through the naturalization process for my adopted son. If Cruz HAS been naturalized, then the point is moot.

If he has NOT been naturalized, then there are only two possibilities - 1. He is considered, by law, a natural-born citizen or 2. He is an illegal alien.

The writer’s point is correct on this.

Any child born outside the limits of the U.S. derives their US citizenship through “derivative naturalization”.

Ted Cruz is a naturalized citizen.

Ted Cruz relies on 8USC1401(g) for US citizenship to run for US President, but 8USC1452(a) says that makes him a derived naturalized citizen, and thus he is Article 2 ineligible for the US Presidency. Arguments relying on statute lose, because only amendments change the US Constitution.

SCOTUS opinion in Rogers vs Bellei 1971 overruled District Court and will deny Cruz the Presidency, while Luria vs US 1913 will guarantee him all 14A rights, privileges and immunities, except serving in the Presidency.
