Ted Cruz is in the US
Senate Illegally?

US Senator
Ted Cruz from Texas, has been under fire in his bid
for the White House due to his Canadian citizenship
records which make it quite clear that he does not
meet the Constitutional “natural born Citizen”
requirement for the Oval Office, despite the opinion
letter from his Harvard friends.
Following
a total lack of vetting on Barack Hussein Obama in
2008 and 2012, many insist that no one ever enter
the Oval Office again without proper vetting,
including proof of meeting all Constitutional
requirements for office. Obama’s massive destruction
of our Constitutional Republic has placed the issue
of Constitutional eligibility on the front burner
for many Americans, and partisanship has nothing to
do with it.
In the
effort to vet every 2016 presidential candidate,
Cruz, who had once stated that both he and Barack
Obama were ineligible for the Oval Office, found
himself under tight scrutiny from the same people
who tried to stop Obama from taking the Oval Office
via fraud. Ted placed himself in the crosshairs of
constitutionalists who do not care about partisan
politics, by seeking an office he is not eligible to
seek.
In
investigating Cruz eligibility for the Oval Office,
his eligibility for the US Senate came into
question…
The
Constitutional requirements for the US Senate are as
follows;
“No Person
shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to
the Age of thirty Years, and been nine Years a
Citizen of the United States, and who shall not,
when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State for
which he shall be chosen.”
At 42
years old in 2012, Ted Cruz obviously met the age
requirement of 30 years. However, he also needed to
meet the requirement of at least “nine Years a
Citizen of the United States.” As the Constitution
states, one cannot be just an “Inhabitant of that
State for which he shall be chosen.”
The known
source for the Founders use of the term natural born
Citizen,
The Law
of Nations,
also defines “Inhabitant” as follows;
§ 213.
Inhabitants.
“The
inhabitants, as distinguished from citizens, are
foreigners, who are permitted to settle and stay in
the country. Bound to the society by their
residence, they are subject to the laws of the state
while they reside in it; and they are obliged to
defend it, because it grants them protection, though
they do not participate in all the rights of
citizens. They enjoy only the advantages which the
law or custom gives them. The perpetual inhabitants
are those who have received the right of perpetual
residence. These are a kind of citizens of an
inferior order, and are united to the society
without participating in all its advantages. Their
children follow the condition of their fathers; and,
as the state has given to these the right of
perpetual residence, their right passes to their
posterity.”
Today, the
legal term for this condition in the United States
is “illegal
alien,”
someone in our country and living under U.S.
jurisdiction, without legally belonging to society.
Modern social justice attitudes often refer to these
people as “undocumented citizens” which of course
are not citizens at all. Our I.R.S. created a new
class of “citizen” for the purpose of collecting
taxes from illegal aliens, “resident
alien”
which is an inhabitant (not a citizen) who pays
taxes.
Contrary
to current leftist social justice ideologies that
view all “illegal aliens” in the U.S. as only
“unauthorized” or “undocumented” citizens, our laws
identify them as nothing more than “illegal aliens,”
or “resident aliens” who pay taxes under I.R.S.
codes.
Further,
in any matter of law, authenticated evidence
supersedes any and all politically motivated
opinions, especially opinions which are either
unfounded or poorly founded. Unlike Barack Hussein
Obama who posted three forged U.S. Certifications of
Live Birth and later a Hawaiian newspaper
announcement of his birth to evidence his Oval
Office eligibility, Ted Cruz issued his Canadian
Birth Certificate as evidence of being “born a
citizen of Canada.”
The above
Canadian document is proof of Canadian Citizenship
at birth for Senator Ted Cruz. The next piece of
authenticated evidence released by Ted Cruz is a
Canadian document proving that he remained a legal
citizen of Canada until renouncing that citizenship
in May of 2014, which means, he was still a legal
citizen of Canada in 2012 when he ran for, was
elected and took the oath of office for the US
Senate.
Again, the
above authenticated evidence proves that Ted Cruz
was born Canadian in 1970 and remained a legal
citizen of Canada until renouncing his Canadian
citizenship in May of 2014. These official documents
also prove that Ted Cruz was a legal citizen of
Canada in 2012, when he sought and claimed a seat in
the U.S. Senate as a legal US citizen.
As a
result of this damning evidence, the Cruz campaign
hired friends at Harvard to issue a letter which
makes a legal case for how Ted Cruz (and Barack
Obama) might be a natural born Citizen of the United
States eligible to seek the Oval Office. However, a
legal opinion letter is not equal to, nor does it
supersede authentic evidence to the contrary.
It is
possible for a child to be born outside of the
United States, and still acquire legal U.S.
citizenship at birth through a parent, according to
U.S. Naturalization codes pertaining to “Citizenship
at Birth for Children Born Outside the U.S. and its
Territories.”
If the related conditions are met, a child born
outside of the United States to one U.S. Citizen
parent, in this case, Ted’s mother, the parents can
file for and receive U.S. Citizenship for the child
by filing a
CRBA
form
with a U.S. Consulate at the time of birth.
The
statutes governing this naturalization process
state;
“A
child born abroad to a U.S. citizen parent or
parents may acquire U.S. citizenship at birth if
certain statutory requirements are met.
The child’s parents should contact the
nearest U.S. embassy or consulate to apply for a
Consular Report of Birth Abroad of a Citizen of the
United States of America (CRBA) to document that the
child is a U.S. citizen. If the U.S. embassy or
consulate determines that the child acquired U.S.
citizenship at birth, a consular officer will
approve the CRBA application and the Department of
State will issue a CRBA, also called a Form FS-240,
in the child’s name.”
According
to related U.S. laws governing “Citizenship at Birth
for Children Born Outside the U.S. and its
Territories,” the following conditions had to be met
in order for Ted Cruz to legally claim U.S.
citizenship at birth via these naturalization
statutes, through his mother.
The U.S.
citizen parent had been physically present in the
U.S. or its territories for a period of at least
five years at some time in his or her life prior to
the birth, of which at least two years were after
his or her 14th birthday.
If the
U.S. citizen parent spent time abroad in any of the
following three capacities, this can also be counted
towards the physical presence requirement:
·
Serving honorably in the U.S. armed forces;
·
Employed with the U.S. government; or
·
Employed with certain international organizations.
Additionally, time spent abroad by the U.S. citizen
parent while the U.S. citizen parent was the
unmarried son or daughter and a member of the
household of a person who meets any of the three
conditions listed above can also be counted.
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
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.
Without
any form of U.S. Citizenship documentation, and
proof of Canadian citizenship at birth in 1970 and
holding that legal status until May 2014 when he
renounced his birth citizenship to Canada, there is
no way for Ted Cruz to prove that he is either
“natural born” and eligible for the Oval Office, or
“naturalized” prior to 2012, when he sought and
accepted a seat in the U.S. Senate as a legal
citizen of Canada.
On the
basis of all available evidence today, Ted Cruz is
in fact holding a seat in the U.S. Senate illegally,
with no documented proof of legal U.S. citizenship
whatsoever, and proof of Canadian citizenship
between the years of birth in 1970 and May 2014.
It is
unfortunate that a person so many have placed their
political faith in has proven willing to defraud his
supporters for both votes and millions in campaign
donations. But it is better we know now, than after
he wins the GOP nomination only to be destroyed by
Democrats later, using the same facts and evidence
presented here.
What will
the people do with this knowledge? Are they really
motivated by restoration of Constitutional
compliance, or mere political expediency?
