Yes. He is Obama's half brother and attended Obama;s birth in Kenya.

You don't have to born within the parameters of the United States to be become president. Remember John McCain? He was born on a military base in Panama.



Ted Cruz's mother was a United States citizen at the time of his birth; he, therefore, meets the specifications outlined within the constitution to be elected to the highest political office in our land.



Interestingly, though, the same thing wouldn't apply to Obama. His mother was only 18 years old when he was born; in 1961, she needed to be 21 for him to be automatically granted citizenship.

The bigger question which is clearly asked by this question is - "Do Yahoo users understand sarcasm and irony"



Obviously from most of the answers that would be "No".



I will explain in plain English the actual question root. You see, we have a President at current who was actually born in Hawaii but was held to task for years and declared unfit to serve office because of a rumor, a legend or some reason that he was born in Kenya.



The people (called 'birthers') we for the most part, the exact same people who would vote in a heartbeat for Cruz.



The reality is that IF the Kenya story were true (which it is not) but - if it were true, then Obama and Ted would be in exactly the same situation.



Born in another country to a ciitzen of the United States who was married to a citizen of another country.



So the question really is - "Why would Ted Cruz NOT be subject to the same insane scrutiny that Obama has battled and wasted so much time with". And the answer is one and only one thing - blatant hypocrisy and perhaps it's not a far leap to call out anti-black racism although the hypocrisy is simply a fact by definition - the anti-black racism idea is simply an extraction that when you look at the two situations they are identical with the only difference being one man is black.



Hope you get it now.

no, but people need to be reminded of how stupid is was to attack Obama that way when Obama had a parent who was a United States Citizen like Cruz did, but unlike Cruz, Obama was actually born in the USA in the state of Hawaii.

Ted Cruz is a Cuban sleeper agent.

He claims he was born in Canada but nobody serious believes that. He was born in Cuba and sent to the US to infiltrate US political circles - and now his TP supporters are trying to help him do that by putting him at the very top of US politics.

Ted Cruz (if that is his real name) is threat to America and a communist spy.

Short answer: no

Long answer: He was born in CANADA to American parents, satisfying the natural-born clause. Every country issues birth certificates. As a side note, Cruz is a surname from Spanish speaking countries and the North American hodgepodge of names. It's unlikely that a Cruz would be from Kenya. Honestly, (not saying I believe this) it's easier to believe this about Obama than Cruz because Obama is a last name from that region. Hawaii just failed at birth certificates until the nineties.

So. Ted Cruz is running for president.

And now Americans' political ignorance will rear its ugly head again.

Millions will start whining that he can't be president because he wasn't born in the US. They are wrong.

I don't like Cruz any more than anyone else, but I must counter that ignorance.





The US Constitution does NOT say that the president must be born in the US. It sys that the president must be a "natural born citizen".

(Article II, Section 1, Clause 5)

No. It is not the same thing.



Article I, Section 8, Clause 4 gives Congress the power "To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization ... "

Congress did that through the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952.

Section 301, Paragraph e.



A child born outside the US IS A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN if AT LEAST ONE PARENT WAS A US CITIZEN at the time of that birth.



Just as it doesn't matter where Barack Obama was born, it doesn't matter where Ted Cruz was born.

Both of their mothers were citizens.

They are both natural born citizens.



Get over it, folks.

Stop Ted Cruz because he's a dangerous jackass, not because of where his parents were when his mother went into labor.

The founding fathers were not born in the United States. Maybe, if we start to look at it like this; when someone is born again while in the United States he and/or she is a Citizen of the United States. Just some thoughts.



As to provide you will some insight into the question you asked. Ted Cruz was born in Canada and renounced his Canadian Citizenship to become a United States Citizen. Ted Cruz s mother was born and raised in Wilmington, Delaware and Ted Cruz s father became naturalized citizen in Dallas, Texas.



The thing that is important to your question is how can a person who is not born in the United States of America including any of it s territories. The Nationality Act of 1940 (H.R. 9980; Pub.L. 76-853; 54 Stat. 1137) supports that Ted Cruz meets the United States Citizenship requirement under U.S. Federal law due to his mother meeting the 10 year requirement.



I do not support Ted Cruz as he is associated with the Tea Party movement, which in part enjoys shutting down the United States Government among other things which in my view suggest one does not love his or her country.



The personal issue as to why I would not vote or suggest anyone to vote for Ted Cruz is due to his Dad working in a foreign military that seized American Citizen s oil wells during the Cuba Revolution. Cuban s lost assets as well as American Citizen s such as my grandfather lost oil rigs.



All in all, Bush/Rubio sounds great to me.

Probably not.



"and has no long-form birth certificate?"

Also probably not true.

May that make any difference in addition when compared with the way great of a us president he or she could possibly be? If there seemed to be someone who had been a lot more qualified to function the united states and perform your individuals essentially the most justice, might all of us somewhat opt for the a lesser amount of skilled, a lesser amount of encountered, and a lesser amount of accomplished prospect since his or her moms and dads were being delivered here? Precisely how silly will that seem. In fact the item appears like unaware elegance. Right now I'm definitely not expressing Jones is actually skilled, I'm simply just asking should he or she become disqualified as a consequence of his or her birth spot?

2015-03-23 23:05:12 UTC
Does that matter more so than how good of a president he could be? If there was a person who was more capable to run the country and do our citizens the most justice, would we rather choose the less qualified, less experienced, and less talented candidate because their parents were born here? How ridiculous does that sound. In fact it sounds like ignorant discrimination. Now Im not saying Cruz is qualified, Im just asking should he be disqualified because of his birth place?

I personally think that needs to change for elected U.S. officials. There's some twisted minded people running our country who have been brought up in other country's with their customs shoving them down Americas throat. Teddy's dad was a illegal from Cuba and married a US citizen wife, who had Teddy in Canada who moved here.

A long form birth certificate is a form of ID that has not been asked for for 30 years. It's the whole birth certificate and not the little card. Some of these out of touch idiots don't know that no one has asked for a long for birth certificate in 30 years. They just remember them from their youth so they said let's ask him for one.

It's sad that we will be going down this path again this election cycle. Fortunately though, Ted Cruz has a snowball's chance in hell of winning a national election (even his own party has called him radical). He may be able to talk up the Texans, but the filth he spews won't fly with the rest of the nation.



His ideas may be disturbing, but like Santorum, he will get shredded in the primaries.

appearances can often depict ones intelligence and psychological disorders without you having to actually get to know them first. do you have to walk up to someone and get to know them first before you can conclude they have downsyndrom? most likely no. in this case you can clearly see he isn't a normal human specimen. it's possible many things went wrong in the womb resulting in his odd shaped head, feminine attributes, phychotic disorders. most polititians are psychopaths and a large number of conservatives ani-gay republicans have been caught in gay scandals.
