Title: Who is Ted Cruz and what kind of president would he be?
Post by: Globalcitizen12 on March 25, 2016, 01:57:01 PM

he called out trump for Trolling his wife a Sniveling coward. The man looks like a bad case of an educated mshamba with an axe to grind against liberals and corporatists. I have not followed this guy because to me he is a man who is using religion as the only attribute that leadership requires. Can he win a GE? Can he governor better than Bush or Obama?

If Ted Cruz wins (extremely unlikely) the Republican nominations the problem is going to be whether he is even eligible to run for presidency. It is going to be based on the interpretation of the law on what a native born citizen is. There is one place it is mentioned that there is an exception that allows someone born abroad to U.S. Parents to be a naturally born citizen. The key here though is that it says US Parents, parents plural.

Ted Cruz's father was a Cuban exile that at first helped out Castro and his mother is a US Citizen. They were in Canada for work and gave birth to Cruz there. His mom filled out the paperwork that made him a Canadian Citizen. According to the law on wedlock births with a US Woman and Alien Father, as long as they were married he gets a US Citizenship at birth. They would have to look at the marriage records though.
