Donald Trump: Highly Respected Constitutional Lawyer Has Just Stated Ted Cruz Is Not Eligible

[Slade3200]

Trump is a genus at diverting real talk to insignificant issues and firebuzz ideas. My prediction... After the buzz from deporting 16 million Mexicans, banning all Muslims from the USA, and Cruz's birth status dies down I think he will propose public executions via firing squad for all criminals guilty of gun violence to fire up the NRA base... Can't wait to see what the next act will be! #PoliticalCircus

When was Cruz naturalized then?

At birth.

I thought he wasn't natural born?

There's no provision for 'naturalized at birth' in US law....save for Puerto Ricans. Which Cruz isn't. Per our law, Cruz is a 'citizen at birth', which is distinct from a 'naturalized' citizen.

Try again.

Nope Mr. Obfuscator. Ted Cruz is a Citizen by statute. A statutory Citizen (bestowed by mans pen/positive law) can never be made into a natural born Citizen ( bestowed by God/nature/natural law). Our white founders were wise.

Wrong.

One is either a natural born citizen or naturalized citizen.

If a citizen did not go through the naturalization process to become a citizen, such as Cruz, then he is a natural born citizen.

Or, wouldn't that mean he could also not be a citizen? Don't you have to be a citizen to be a Senator?

Why not just ask Obama if Cruz is eligible?

Highly Respected Constitutional Lawyer Has Just Stated Ted Cruz Is Not Eligible


The same lawyer that said 2nd amendment only protects guns in the National Guard?

 

[Luddly Neddite]

White, and Christian.

With blond hair - even if it's dyed, like Drumpf's.

BTW, Drumpf said he had proof that Prez Barry wasn't born in the US and would sharing it soon. That was several years ago. Maybe the idiot OP would like to tell us when that proof will be made publicly....

Same with Joe The Hoe Arpaio in AZ.

Do they also have "proof" about Cruz The Cuban Canadian?

Just curious

Yep. He stays with the push button non-issues so no one notices his screwy plans include raising taxes on the working class and cutting taxes for his 1% cronies.

Exactly what Obama has stopped the Rs from doing.

Drumpf is a scam artist and, with the help of the most ignorant among us, he's going after his biggest scam.

Cruz does not look American like the rest of us

 

[Slade3200]

It's all a BIG distraction people... And we are all taking the bait. Yoda would say, "suckers we are". NOBODY gives a shit about the Cruz birth issue, Trump, the puppet master is playing us like the pawns we are.

8 Code 1401

Here's Title 8, Code 1401:

8 U.S. Code § 1401 - Nationals and citizens of United States at birth

Just highlight the portion that says that someone born to a US citizen is 'naturalized at birth'. There's no such citation.

As paragraph (g) of Title 8, Code 1401 makes ludicriously clear, the term you're looking for is 'citizen at birth'.

The following shall be nationals and citizens of the United States at birth:

(g) a person born outside the geographical limits of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents one of whom is an alien, and the other a citizen of the United States who, prior to the birth of such person, was physically present in the United States or its outlying possessions for a period or periods totaling not less than five years, at least two of which were after attaining the age of fourteen years:
Provided

Nowhere in the code will you find 'natural born Citizen'. Nowhere. Ted Cruz is a statutory Citizen. He is not a natural born Citizen.

The law makes no mention of 'statutory citizens'. Nor 'natural born citizens'. Making your advance of it as defining either meaningless gibberish.

Worse, even by your own logic, your claims break. As the very first criteria for citizenship under this law is:

(a) a person born in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof;

8 U.S. Code § 1401 - Nationals and citizens of United States at birth

By your psuedo-legal gibberish, wouldn't that make anyone born in the US a 'statutory citizen'? After all, they're mentioned in the exact same law you're citing. The exact same title. The exact same code. The exact same page. The exact same list.
