In reply to the discussion: TED CRUZ MUST SHOW NATURALIZATION PAPERS TO KEEP HIS U.S. SENATE SEAT [View all]Nay
(12,051 posts)legal in the US and/or Canada, and those rules (if needed) would be the ones applied to the Cruzes at the time of their residence in Canada. I made no birther claims; I believe Mrs. Cruz stayed a US citizen; I was just addressing the lack of depth and pertinence in the actual birther article.
However, the fact that nutty birthers cannot seem to home in on relevant points in the Cruz citizenship question does not mean there are no issues. It would seem to be an easy thing to reveal to your constituents what documents you presented to the US government to acquire a US passport, for example. It is a mystery why he has not come forward with the relevant documents, other then his well-known belief that It's OK If You Are A Republican. It is especially relevant in Cruz's case because of his birther nonsense directed at other presidential candidates who are very clearly natural-born citizens.
