Cruz, Rubio Presidential Eligibility Challenged In FL, VT, and MD!

Well, so far complaints involving the ineligibility for Cruz, Rubio and Jindal to run for president have been filed in three states. Florida, Vermont, and MD. It appears all these people have to do is show proof of the eligibility requirements to run for president as stated in the constitution. So far none have, however Jindal has dropped out so it is moot for him. (Citizenship is not the same as the naturalization requirements for citizenship to run for President as stated in the constitution.)

 For some odd reason, Cruz has had his birth records sealed. He’ll have to answer the reason why himself. Heaven forbid if we speculate on that one. It does appear very strange especially if he has nothing to hide? He did show his Canadian Birth Certificate and his paper denouncing his Canadian citizenship, but he has not shown any consulate papers. That must be what he has sealed. So if Cruz will just show proof of the proper papers there should be no problem. But, so far he has not and avoids the subject when asked. See Link: http://www.birtherreport.com/2015/04/revealed-request-for-senator-ted-cruzs.html

Rubio, will be very difficult to prove as neither of his parents were citizens until five years after he was born.

Meanwhile the GOP is bolstering its commitment to make any new republican voters in Virginia sign loyalty pledges? Even though Virginia allows any voter the privilege to vote for any party in a primary. Is this even legal? Doesn’t this infringe on the state laws and voting rights? Go figure…it gives me a head ache.

    1. If you read the post, the links are all there along with copies of who is doing it and how and why. They are not lies. Sorry the truth is what it is. Calling it a lie does not change it. Although it may help you vent. It still is what it is.

        I gently persuade you to do some research before writing any more articles on “Natural Born Citizen”. There are many good sources out there but you need to be educated. Conflating “Naturalization” with the “Natural Born Citizen” requirement in Article 2 Section 1 of the US Constitution is a gross error. One has nothing to do with the other. A “Naturalized Citizen” (under the 14th Amendment) is a “Citizen” but they are not (nor can they ever be) a “Natural Born Citizen”. and therefore can never (Legally) be President of the United States.

      2. Canada did not allow dual citizenship until 1976. His mother had to denounce her US citizenship in order to be a citizen in Canada. When Cruz was born in 1970 his mother would have not been a legal US citizen. When they came to America in 1974 Canada still held a one nation only citizenship. The parents of Ted did not become US citizens until 2005. That is the information people are trying to find. His mother would have had to reapply for citizenship by denouncing her Canadian citizenship. It just needs cleared up. So far the nations status for not allowing dual citizenship doesn’t look good. By birth Ted was Canadian and his mother had no US citizenship therefore she could not have filled out papers at the consulate to make Ted a citizen any more than I could fill papers out to have my son be a Canadian.

        As far as my trying to interpret the constitutional requirements….read the article again. I announced what the links were saying and gave you the links. I made no effort to interpret anything. Good heavens…when in the past I have put the expert dual opinions out there people still said their own interpretations. So, in all fairness so far their are hundreds of interpretations and ideas….they are not necessary as the law is clear. There are rules for being a citizen and rules for citizenship to be president and they are different sets of requirements.

      Tammy Soulek, What lies is she spreading? If you ask me, she is being too easy regarding Natural Born Citizen. It doesn’t matter what Cruz has sealed because he was born on Canadian Soil and not American Soil. The Natural Born Citizen was made clear by the founders, being a child born on US Soil (or territory if parent served overseas) of Citizen parent(s)! Plural meaning BOTH!

      I realize some people love these politicians, but they KNOW they are not legal! Haven’t we seen enough with Obama already? And one more thing that may be fuel for thought. Stop thinking about YOURSELF for a second and think about your children or grandchildren. Do you realize that If Obama, Cruz, Rubio, Jindal and Santorum can be President, then so could the Fort Hood shooter, the Chattanooga shooter, the Clock Boy and the San Bernadino shooter, once of age. You need to seriously THINK about the DANGERS you can personally be setting your own children up for. I don’t know about you, but that scares the he!! out of me!

That includes Cruz who just pushed a bill to increase B-1 Visas by 500 percent. So he doesn’t use names, he uses issues.

      1. Diane, that is a distortion. Before any more H1B Visas should be allowed, Cruz wants a moratorium in their issuance until all the abuses are identified and stopped. Once the abuses are cleaned up, AND requirements are made a LOT stricter, he says we can raise the limit of H1B visas. That doesn’t mean that many will be issued, it just changes the maximum allowed. If anything, he believes that cutting out the corruption and abuses and tightening up the requirements may actually end up with fewer visas being issued.

        Cruz is totally against amnesty. He only voted on that one bill because he knew it wouldn’t pass after taking out the part about making a path toward citizenship. It eorked. It was a strategic move. Everything Cruz does is strategic.

        By the way, you are wrong about his mother. She has NEVER been a Canadian citizen. Cruz was born in 1970. His mother was a U.S. citizen, and his father was an exiled Cuban national who became a Canadian citizen in 1974, years AFTER Ted was born. Later, the father became a U.S. citizen. Ted was born a U.S. citizen–he is naural born. He was NOT naturalized at a later date. His family moved to the U.S. when he was 4 and he grew up and lived his entire life here.

  3. What’s a ‘Natural Born Citizen’ and why a U.S. President Must Be One, with KrisAnne Hall https://youtu.be/hAjznFRo5Vw
    Please, read the complete post before you comment.
    Reason why Barrack Hussein Obama, II, was not eligible to be President and why Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio are not eligible to run for the Presidency. By Fremont V Brown III

    Barack Hussein Obama II is not a Natural Born Citizen because his Father was born 1936 in the British Colony of Kenya and Protectorate of Kenya (1920-1963), and was thus born a subject of the British Crown. If as it appears, Barack Hussein Obama II was also born in the Colony of Kenya, then he too was born a subject of the British Crown. Even if he were born in Hawaii, he still would not be a natural born citizen, because his Father was not a US Citizen. So he is not eligible to be President of the United States.

    Rafael Eduardo “Ted” Cruz, was born in Calgary, Canada. Cruz’s father became a Canadian citizen during his residence in Canada. Once Cruz’s father returned to the US he renounced his Canadian citizenship.

    But, what is very important is that Ted’s Father became a naturalized US citizen in 2005 long AFTER Ted was born. It is not necessary that a person be born within the US to be a Natural Born Citizen. WHAT is necessary is that his parents must already be Citizens of the U.S. at the time he was born. Vattel understood that US citizens might be abroad in the service of their Country and their child might be born in the foreign land. Since children inherit, as a matter of natural right, the status of their parents, the Child is BORN a US citizen. That is why John McCain is an NBC. His father, already a US citizen, was stationed in the Panama Canal Zone. His Mother, already a US Citizen, was living with her husband. So their son, John, was BORN a Natural Born Citizen.

    Marco Rubio is not a Natural Born Citizen. Neither of his parents were U.S. citizens at the time of Rubio’s birth in 1971. His parents applied for U.S. citizenship and were naturalization in 1975, four years AFTER his birth.

    Location of birth is always irrelevant. All that matters is the citizenship status of the parents. Both parents must be U.S. citizens.

    Constitutional provisions:
    Section 1 of Article Two of the United States Constitution sets forth the eligibility requirements for serving as president of the United States, under clause 5:

    No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

    The Twelfth Amendment states, “No person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.”

    Citizen by Birth or Naturalization is not the Same as a NATURAL BORN Citizen!

    Note: The Constitution can be “voided” ONLY if and when it is replaced by another Constitution. Acts do not trump the Constitution. This means the Constitution is the Supreme Law of the Land.

    “The Naturalization Act of 1790 states quite clearly: a child born of a U.S.-born mother anywhere in the world is a U.S. citizen by birth and therefore a natural-born citizen,” Rafael Cruz said. – Washington Post, James Hohmann, August 31

    Here is the wording of the Naturalization Act of 1790 – Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, That any Alien being a free white person, who shall have resided within the limits and under the jurisdiction of the United States for the term of two years, may be admitted to become a citizen thereof on application to any common law Court of record in any one of the States wherein he shall have resided for the term of one year at least, and making proof to the satisfaction of such Court that he is a person of good character, and taking the oath or affirmation prescribed by law to support the Constitution of the United States, which Oath or Affirmation such Court shall administer, and the Clerk of such Court shall record such Application, and the proceedings thereon; and thereupon such person shall be considered as a Citizen of the United States. And the children of such person so naturalized, dwelling within the United States, being under the age of twenty one years at the time of such naturalization, shall also be considered as citizens of the United States. And the children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond Sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born Citizens: Provided, that the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose fathers have never been resident in the United States: Provided also, that no person heretofore proscribed by any States, shall be admitted a citizen as aforesaid, except by an Act of the Legislature of the State in which such person was proscribed.

    U.S. Supreme Court, Minor v. Happersett, 88 U.S. 162 (1874)

    “The Constitution does not, in words, say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common-law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners.” Minor v. Happersett, 88 U.S. 162, 168.

    Note: The use of the word “CITIZENS” meaning both parents, not just one parent in the Naturalization Act of 1790 and U.S. Supreme Court, Minor v. Happersett, 88 U.S. 162 (1874) in order to be a natural born citizen.

    Do you think that the reason that LIBERAL Academians that claim Ted Cruz is a Natural Born Citizen do not wish the public to be reminded that Obama’s birth parallels Cruz’s – that is only one parent was a U.S. Citizen? And He, Obama like Cruz is not a Natural Born Citizen.

    For more on Natural Born Citizen see http://tarheelteaparty.org/?page_id=5436 for more from Publius Huldah and others.

    _____________________________

    If it’s important to anyone that we get back to following the US Constitution after Obama’s shredding of it, this is a critical issue. Our Constitution requires that our President and Vice President be Natural Born citizens; not just citizens, not “naturalized” citizens and not “citizens at birth.” Cruz knows the difference but voters don’t so the ruse is on. Obama got away with it so why not Cruz. Below is the perfect example of why our founders demanded Natural Born status for these two elected offices – loyalty to the nation you represent, not some foreign country. Is Obama loyal to the US? Lesson learned!

    Is this guy eligible to be President? Like Ted Cruz, his mother is a US citizen! So, to quote Cruz: “My mother is a citizen therefore I am a citizen at birth and a natural born citizen.” With the Cruz definition, so is Prince Hamzan of Jordan. – – Jeanene Van Zandt

    1. Frank O'Pinion says:

      John McCain is a naturalized U.S. citizen in accordance with the Naturalization Act of 1795 which repealed that of 1790.

      Also, children of naturalized parents are considered as ‘citizens’.

      To wit:
      “SEC. 3. And be it further enacted, that the children of persons duly naturalized, dwelling within the United States, and being under the age of twenty-one years, at the time of such naturalization, and the children of citizens of the United States, born out of the limits and jurisdiction of the United States, shall be considered as citizens of the United States:”

      Picture an insurmountable wall, fence, or other tall structure.
      On one side are natural born citizens. On the other side are naturalized citizens.

      Neither type of citizen can be transformed into the other. Putting it another way: If your citizenship falls under the Naturalization (key word) Act of 1795, you are a naturalized U.S. citizen. If you are born on U.S. soil to U.S. citizen parents, you are a natural born U.S. citizen.

      My contention is – I believe that the Founding Fathers screwed up the act of 1790, based on the principles of the law of nature. Even though Congress has the power to enact laws of naturalization, they do not have the authority or power to create a natural born citizen. That only comes from the law of nature, no statute.

      Naturalization laws are positive law where ‘citizens’ are created.

      Law of nature creates ‘natural born citizens’.

    2. Not true…there are only two types of citizens…those who are born citizen and those that are naturalized at a later date. There is no third designation as you imply. Vattel was not a Founder. While his ideas were used for much of the framing of the Constitution , one cannot assume the Framers chose a specific idea and perhaps not another. Knowing how important this issue is, the Founders would have specified what “natural born” meant if they had intended it to be such a narrow definition. Since they didn’t, one may want to think about why they didn’t. Being such forward-thinking men of vision, the Founders most likely knew the country’s needs and demographics would change over time. We all know that requirements for citizenship have changed, but the fact that there are two types of citizens has not. There are those who are born citizens and those who are naturalized later. The intent of the Framers was to ensure undivided loyalty to the country…hence the “natural born” requirement.

  4. Has nothing to do with his birth certificate being sealed.. It has to do with his parents..We know that his father was a Canadian citizen, but we need to know if his mother was a Canadian citizen as well. We have heard from Canadians that she was indeed a Canadian citizen. Time to demand that Raphael/Ted shows his documents showing all information including his mothers citizenship in Canada.Someone needs to bring this up and demand it be shown..

    1. He has shown his Canadian Birth Cert. But he has not shown any papers showing he was also American citizen which his mother would have had to fill out at the Consulate. He also doesn’t speak of his father Rafael’s first marriage and his two daughters from that marriage which would have had to happen between his college years and the time he left to go to Canada in ’64. Rafael graduated in 1961/62 (that’s how the bio reads??) and worked odd jobs. (this is what Cruz bio has said) Now in 1961/1962 there were not that many college grads with 4 year degrees. Rafael would have been able to get a very good paying job. Why the floundering years of odd jobs on the bio? However Cruz does not mention what his dad Rafael said, he said in a video that he started his own business in oil and gas exploration in Kansas and then times got bad and he had to close his business. Then he left to Canada in 1964. So? When did he meet Ted’s mom? He had been married with two daughters – Miriam was one of the names of them who had a son that now works at a chocolate factory. The question I have is since the state of Delaware has no birth record of Ted’s mother….was she even born there? If Rafael left the US after a divorce and fathering two daughters, when did he meet Teds mother? Here or in Canada? Did Rafael become a Canadian citizen through Ted’s mom? Was she already a Canadian citizen? Just asking. Ted has sealed these records. All we are left with is a bio that is very skewed and the pieces come out in discussions in videos that don’t coincide with the bio we were given. Just saying this is what Cruz needs to clear up. He and his father need to get their stories straight. Rafael worked for oil in Canada and when Rafael returned to the US he worked for oil in Texas. So follow the oil. It smells questionable to me…CiA questionable. Especially since Rafael was in the revolution and somehow miraculously got a visa to go to college in the USA. All fishy.

      1. And all during the time period that the government had the college visa program going on…the same program that Obama’s father supposedly was in Hawaii getting educated on. During the same years. Supposedly Obama’s mother worked in Kansas with oil companies then, and supposedly that is where Rafael worked with his oil and gas exploration…Kansas. It is just too similar.

  5. I find each bio on Rafael is a bit different. Here is an example where he leaves his Canadian citizenship totally out of the picture. Even though he did not become a citizen until 2005.

    Rafael Cruz
    Pastor, Professor, Father of US Senator Ted Cruz

    Rafael Cruz is the father of US Senator Ted Cruz. Rafael embodies the American Dream. Born in Cuba, he suffered under a cruel, oppressive dictator. He began fighting Batista’s regime as a teenager and was imprisoned and tortured – beaten nearly to death – simply to be free.

    Rafael arrived in Texas in 1957 with nothing but the clothes on his back and one hundred dollars sewn into his underwear.

    He got a job as a dishwasher, making 50 cents an hour, and worked his way through the University of Texas, while learning English.

    Ted Cruz’s father then built a small business in further pursuit of the American Dream.

    Rafael Cruz became active in conservative politics during the 1980 Presidential Campaign of Ronald Reagan. He also joined the State Board of The Religious Roundtable, a grassroots Judeo-Christian organization that had an important impact on the future of political dialogue.

    Today, he is a pastor based in North Texas serving as the Director of Purifying Fire Ministries, ministering in the U.S., Mexico and Central America. He is also a professor of Bible and Theology, and the president of Kingdom Translation Services.http://www.truethevotesummit.com/Home/Speaker/10

    My Note: The religious or Religion Roundtable is a product of the UN to bring all religions under one umbrella toward world peace. It is an arm of one world religion disguised as a Christian group to bring Christian values into government. When you look at the radical views and foreign policies of W. Bush – which the group helped elect, you will see the ones behind it are radicals pushing new world order. The sheep are led to believe what ever this group tells them. Today, this has changed as many have woken up to the deception in the far right and their radical views. Well meaning Christians believe they are voting for those who are of Godly purpose vetted by the leaders of the Christian coalition when in fact the leaders behind it have political motives to push an agenda.

It would be nice for Ted to clear all this up by showing us how he is a citizen by showing us his mother did have dual citizen ship in 1970 – especially when Canada did not allow dual citizenship until 1976. That would be nice to see how that took place.

His mother would have had to reapply for citizenship by denouncing her Canadian citizenship. It just needs cleared up. So far the nations status for not allowing dual citizenship doesn’t look good. By birth Ted was Canadian and his mother had no US citizenship therefore she could not have filled out papers at the consulate to make Ted a citizen any more than I could fill papers out to have my son be a Canadian.

      3. Yes Brenda, read the article above again, I specifically stated, “It does appear very strange especially if he has nothing to hide? He did show his Canadian Birth Certificate and his paper denouncing his Canadian citizenship, but he has not shown any consulate papers.” So please before you tell others to work on their “reading comprehension issues” work on your own. http://www.thepostemail.com/2015/04/11/exclusive-uscis-denies-foia-request-for-ted-cruzs-naturalization-papers-if-they-exist/

    Dianne, we understood what you were saying. Megyn Kelly who I do not listen to. She takes one sentence from what a person says, that everyone except her and her cheerleading squad, knew what the person meant and runs with it splitting hairs. I understood perfectly. I don’t like when Megyn Kelly acts like everyone is like her. Blond and brainless. Thanks for your hard work helping us vett the Canadates. The most important thing is to get the right man this time. I liked Ted Cruz in the biginning. I started getting phony before you really started vetting him hard. What you have done is conferm to me I was getting it right. If they start out lying well… We are watching the end results. Nobody would of dreamed in 7 yrs. America would be in such a mess. Why wouldn’t we dream that? B/c we have Senate and Congress right? If we don’t want the TRUTH we can exit. There has never been a time that I can remember, and I’m retired that we needed the truth about Canadates like now. Thanks again for the hard work. You are not getting paid and if we never come back to The Marshall Report who would ever know?

    1. When you get to a real truth, you rattle the cage of those who don’t want to hear it. I am like Trump in the respect that I don’t lie. If I am wrong I will admit it, but you will never get me to say I said something I did not say. I hate to be called a liar by those who are either lying or truly don’t know. I hate to tell these people but Cruz is deceptive and he knows he is being so. How many Cruz supporters have really dug into his past? I could have cared less to. At first I thought he would have done better in the poles and other than thinking his speeches were so Shakespeare…I had nothing against the guy and thought Trump could use him as a good V.P. Then he got snaky. More things came out and then I dug around. The more he lied and back tracked the more I searched. Then I found disturbing things the news doesn’t tell you. Like the freedom of information act being denied access to his birth records….not his birth certificates the records that prove he is a citizen not the ones that prove he isn’t a Canadian. See this link: And share it. http://www.birtherreport.com/2015/04/revealed-request-for-senator-ted-cruzs.html
      Then there is this link: http://www.thepostemail.com/2015/04/11/exclusive-uscis-denies-foia-request-for-ted-cruzs-naturalization-papers-if-they-exist/
      When I write, I gather lots of links and do it on Microsoft word first. I keep all my sources there. If I write an opinion blog I don’t worry about it, it is my opinion. I write so much that it is hard to find all the things fast. That is why I always put the important links on the article itself. One thing is true, the fact that in the past in 2003 Cruz admitted to important people that he was not a citizen means a lot. I haven’t written about some of the things I have found because I wasn’t wanting to really stir up Cruz lovers. But, anymore….I think I will just give them some hard truth. Thank you Sha/la.

    I think some Countries might be different. My son born May 1976 on board Navel Station, Iceland was a American citizen with duel citizenship. Like John McCain he had both parents American born citizens. Plus he was born on a U.S Navel Station in a foreign country. That countries laws in 1976 were at age 21 yrs. old he would have to choose American or Icelantic Citizenship. I don’t know if it was different before 1976. I Don’t know if the rules would of been the same without both parents born U.S citizens? I do know he had to choose one of them at age 21. I remember We laughted about it b/c that was the era of the draft & Vietnam. A few young men were going to Canada.

  11. In the case of Rubio and Jindal (even though moot) the law is settled. In each of the states (VT, FL, MD) 2012 ballot challenges against President Obama by probably the same people here led to judgements that he was a natural born citizen. All were upheld on appeal. The same case law will be applied in the case of Rubio.

    As to Cruz, that is a little more difficult to predict however we can look to a comment made by Justice Thomas in the recent case of Zivotofsky v. Kerry for a hint,

    ” . . . in the exercise of the power conferred by the Constitution to establish a uniform rule of naturalization.” United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U. S. 649, 688 (1898) ; see also Miller v. Albright, 523 U. S. 420, 456 (1998) (Scalia, J., concurring in judgment) (recognizing that “Congress has the power to set the requirements for acquisition of citizenship by persons not born within the territory of the United States”). It has determined that children born abroad to U. S. parents, subject to some exceptions, are natural-born citizens who do not need to go through the naturalization process. 8 U. S. C. §§ 1401(c), (d), (g).”

    Mr. Reams, has firmly stated on this blog that Cruz birth cerit. Is not sealed you have stated a lie. He is the monitor for Jeff Session that told me firmly the same thing. Glad you corrected him for he appears to try to be backing people down with intimidation .

    1. The Cruz camp is going to get more and more defensive and very harsh. All they have to do is show his naturalization papers and or do as the challengers are stating go before the courts to get a declarative action. They would rather argue and deny than do what is necessary to run a clean campaign. If I recall Obama paid over 2 million dollars to keep from producing his documents. What does that tell us?

  13. To all concerned re Cruz. It is what it is. He can clear this up, but if he chooses not to …he has a mess. If he can’t he needs to do the right thing now, for it will get messier. From the link provided below:

    “Ted’s parents were at no time serving in the U.S. Armed Forces, employed by the U.S. Government or by any of the certain international organizations, during their eight years in Canada, between 1966 and 1974. Further, Ted’s father Rafael, was at no time a legal citizen of the United States prior to naturalizing in 2005, from Canada. Rafael’s known legal citizenship status as of 1970 was Cuban, not American.

    This is an EXAMPLE of a US CRBA Form (Consular Report of Birth Abroad)

    “Unfortunately, there is no evidence to suggest that the parent or parents of Ted Cruz ever filed a CRBA form with the U.S. Government in or around 1970, which is why Ted Cruz released a copy of his Canadian citizenship records and not any U.S. citizenship records. At present, all FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) requests filed in search of any U.S. citizenship documents to confirm the true official U.S. citizenship status of Ted Cruz have been denied access. All citizenship records for Ted Cruz are sealed unless and until Ted Cruz agrees to allow any such records to be released by either U.S. or Canadian agencies.

    “As a result, there remains no authentic evidence to support the claims that Ted Cruz is either a “natural born” or “naturalized” citizen of the United States.”

    Whoever does not like these facts, please take it up with the people who have been trying to get an answer from Ted. They seem as frustrated as any of you.

    1. Correct and Thank You Dianne!

      WE are supposed to “Hope” that Canadian Rafael aka Ted with a Cuban father could “Change” his Canadian Birth Certificate to Natural Born U.S.Citizen. But that is not gonna’ happen, or we would have seen it by now.

      We know his mother knows how to complete the appropriate paperwork because she did it for her 1st son in England.

      Where is the same for son #2?
