Cruz may not be legally a Senator, much less a Pres. candidate.

81. Missing the point.

When Cruz was born, IN Canada, the Canada law at the time said you could only have ONE citizenship.
You were automatically deemed to be a Canadian
or
you could be another countries' citizen
IF
your parents filed a form choosing some other citizenship for you.

So, IF Cruz's mother was a US citizen and filed a form for HIM to be counted as a US citizen,( which is the normal process for out of country births) then that is what he was.
He could not be BOTH.in Canada, since Canada did not allow that at the time, and he could not be both in the USA if she had filed the form which told the USA to count him as an American citizen.
When he was 4, the family moved to USA..
So he is USA Citizen as far as both Canada and USA are concerned, when they move to USA.
Fine and dandy.

So WHY did Cruz make a big deal, after the press confronted him, of RENOUNCING his Canadian citizenship, in 2012,
AFTER he became a US Senator, if he was not Canadian?
And if he was NOT Canadian when they moved in 1974, why and when would he have become one while living in the states,
since he had to ties to Canada?
