Ted Cruz Releases Birth Certificate Prompting the Question of a 2016 Presidential Run
Ted Cruz Releases Birth Certificate Prompting the Question of a 2016 Presidential Run
Posted by: Matt Liponoga Posted date: August 19, 2013 In: News
Ted Cruz, Tea Party favorite, released his birth certificate on Sunday morning. Ted Cruz’s eligibility has been up for debate since he seems to be a likely candidate for president in 2016. This raises the question, will his college records be next?
Ted Cruz was born to an America mother in Calgary, Alberta. The U.S. constitution specifically states that a President must be a “natural-born citizen.” This includes a person born on foreign soil to American citizens.
“Senator Cruz became a U.S. citizen at birth, and he never had to go through a naturalization process after birth to become a U.S. citizen,” Cruz’s spokeswoman Catherine Frazier The Dallas Morning News. “To our knowledge, he never had Canadian citizenship, so there is nothing to renounce.”
The surrounding question of whether or not Cruz is eligible to run is very similar to questions raised of Obama’s birthplace as well. Even if Obama was born in Kenya as some claim, he would have still been eligible to run as president because his mother was a U.S. citizen. The question more-so is if Obama “lied” about his birthplace.
By Cruz already coming out this early in the game to release his birth certificate, it almost guarantees that he is looking at a presidential run. The Tea Party star has already visited Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina, three early states on the presidential calendar, in 2013.

Ted Cruz Releases Birth Certificate In Anticipation Of 2016 Presidential Run
August 19, 2013 by Personal Liberty News Desk
In a move that’s hard not to associate with his potential ambitions to seek the 2016 GOP Presidential nomination, Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) released his birth certificate to The Dallas Morning News, which published a story with an image of the document on Sunday.
The birth certificate affirms Cruz was born in Canada to an American mother and Cuban father. His mother, Eleanor Elizabeth Wilson, gave birth to Cruz in Calgary in 1970. Upon his birth, Cruz became an American citizen, though not a “natural-born citizen” as set forth in the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
The newspaper volunteers perhaps too many pejorative comments about Cruz’ dual citizenship, but his naturalization status at birth is a real topic that’s lit a fire under mainstream media pundits.
In a column published Monday, Personal Liberty’s Bob Livingston explained the U.S. Supreme Court precedent that, if we are still a Nation of laws, should keep Cruz out of the Presidential race.
Offer us your take on the Senator’s eligibility in the comments.
