There you go. According to birther logic he was born outside the US, as was his father; therefore he is not eligible for the Presidency.

it's a certificate of birth, for starters. And I want to see the original long form!!!!!! Complete with the baby's footprint and the doctor's signature.

And the type is way too blurry.

Clearly a fake. Ted Cruz was born in Cuba.

No luck, Canuck. Take your Maple Syrup back up there to Eskimo-Land and ice skate your brains out.

...by virtue of the fact that he was born there (what a simple concept...). I think he can talk his way throught he natural-born citizen issue, but I can't imagine how a dual-national gets elected in the Republican Party.

Where's the real certificate? What does Cruz have to hide? Where's that idiot Sheriff in Phoenix and his posse when you really need them?

"I want to know why Cruz's father waiting 48 years to become a US citizen, until his son's political career began taking off? What is he hiding? Why didn't he renounce Cuba for America in 1957 when he came here? I demand to see his father's correspondence from 1957 to 2005 concerning Cuba. This is way too fish, this Cuban/Canadian connection."
