To the Birthers and Ted Cruz

Just STFU and watch the video!   

On May 14, Alberta-born Sen. Ted Cruz renounced his Canadian dual citizenship. The renunciation became official roughly 9 months after he feigned not knowing he wasn’t only an American. Cruz has known all along that he is not eligible to run for president and the only reason he's running is to pocket campaign money.

Ted Cruz NOT a Natural Born Citizen

Ted Cruz is disqualified to be president and not just because he's a flaming asshole and a traitor or because Trump says so. Ted Cruz is not a natural born citizen.

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." The Fourteenth Amendment does not use the phrase natural-born citizen. It does provide, "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

Under Article One of the United States Constitution, representatives and senators are required to be U.S. citizens, but there is no requirement that they be natural born.
