Cruz is not a natural born American and is not eligible for the Presidency.
He was a Canadian citizen until recently. He was born in Canada to a
Cuban father and American mother but was a Canadian citizen at birth.
Cruz cannot be President. Not natural-born.
NaturalIZED is not natural born.

Cruz was an American Citizen at Birth.
Based on the Legislative History of Naturalization. It seems clear enough that the language of the 1790 Act was exactly what was intended and that as the Act was "amended" and ultimately replaced by later acts, the issue (at least in the minds of the legislators) was settled.
Interesting reading for people actually interested in the Legislative history of the Naturalization Act. It includes sections from the notes of the members of the first Congress and by reading it, one can clearly see that Cruz is a natural born citizen as was intended by the first Congress of the US.

Exactly. Naturalized is not the same thing as natural-born. After warring with England for independence, why is there any doubt that the Founding Fathers wanted to ensure the president would only have loyalty to, and be subject to the jurisdiction of, America?
cruz wasn't naturalized. he had both US and canadian citizenships at birth.
The country of birth may, at its discretion, have dominion over you for life. They issued your birth certificate. In a way, they brought you into this world. They gave you your identity. You can renounce them all you want but they may not let go of you. What are you gonna do?
One more thing. During the Obama's birth certificate circus the defense was that he was born in Hawaii and the other side tried to say he was not. Nobody defended Obama based on his parentage. Nobody said if even he was not born here he was born to an American parent. With Cruz his place of birth is not supposed to matter.

Are these quotes from this thread or from 8 years ago? 8 years ago people were trying to prove he was not born here. There is no way we are going to elect an American president who was born in Canada.
