If Winston Churchill Was Not Even a Citizen of the United States, How Can Ted Cruz Be Its Natural Born Citizen?

Senator and presidential contender Ted Cruz was born in 1970 in Canada to parents who, unlike Senator John McCain’s parents, were not serving the U.S. national defense. He therefore was not born or reputed born in the United States. He was also born to presumably a U.S. citizen mother, and to a non-U.S. citizen father (his father was Cuban). Hence he was also not born to two U.S. citizen parents. Cruz is at best a “citizen" of the United States “at birth,” but only by virtue of the 1952 Immigration and Naturalization Act, a naturalization Act of Congress (assuming that he was born to a U.S. citizen mother). But failing both constitutional common law requirements for being a natural born citizen, i.e., born in the United States to U.S. citizen parents, he is not nor can he be a natural born citizen.

On the contrary, Cruz does not agree that this common law definition of a natural born citizen under which he is not a natural born citizen is the only definition of a natural born citizen that has ever existed in the United States since July 4, 1776. Rather, he tells us that it has been settled law since the adoption and ratification of the Constitution that a child born out of the United States to a U.S. citizen mother and a non-U.S. citizen father like him is also a natural born citizen.

I have written several articles demonstrating why Cruz is not a natural born citizen and that he is wrong to maintain that he is. These articles can be read at www.puzo1.blogspot.com

I read a comment by Ghost posted on January 17, 2016 at http://theconservativemonster.com/constitutional-lawyer-mario-apuzzo-cruz-is-not-a-natural-born-citizen/, which asked: “was Winston Churchill eligible to become President of the United States? Churchill’s mother was an American citizen! of High Society Brooklyn and NYC.” This question led me to investigate the matter and this is what I found.

Angela Merkel: “Germany will have to live with a higher number of criminals.”

If we’ve learned anything in the last eight years it’s that supposedly smart people can be suicidally stupid, and that idiot savants can easily rationalize sabotaging their own nations.
Napoleon Chagnon is the most important scientific anthropologist of our time, because he has exposed the true nature of primitive tribal warfare. (See his 1988 Science article called “Life history, blood revenge, and warfare in a tribal population.”)

For a hundred years field anthropologists have watched tribal warfare going on, year after year, but they were not allowed to publish the truth. Leading anthropologists like Margaret Mead and Ashley Montagu simply lied about the violent tribes they knew about.

Justice Anonin Scalia: It is “absurd” to think the Constitution bans the government from supporting religion

Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia told an audience Saturday that while the United States was intentionally founded without an established church, it was never intended to be “neutral” toward religion itself.

Speaking about religious freedom at Archbishop Rummel High School in a Louisiana suburb of New Orleans, Scalia insisted that in American constitutional tradition, there has always been a presumption of the benefit of religion for society.

It is “absurd” to think the Constitution bans the government from supporting religion, he said.

What's REALLY going on.

This article is long, but you will not wonder why things happen that make no sense, or why things never seem to change--you WILL understand what's REALLY going on and this is a MUST READ for all Americans!

Matthew Bracken, November 2015:
More than a decade ago I wrote my first novel, Enemies Foreign and Domestic. Part of my motivation was to establish my bona fides at forecasting social, political and military trends. I didn’t like the direction America was heading, and I wanted to warn as many readers as possible about some of the dangers I saw coming. At the end of 2015, I hope that my past success at prognostication will encourage people to pay heed to this essay.

As we roll into the New Year, we are witnessing the prelude to the culmination of a titanic struggle between three great actors. Three great social forces are now set in motion for a 2016 showdown and collision that will, in historical terms, be on par with the First and Second World Wars.

Two of these great social forces are currently allied in a de facto coalition against the third. . .

A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN IS A TRUE CITIZEN

J.B. Williams:

A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN IS A TRUE CITIZEN, PART 1 of 2

A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN IS A TRUE CITIZEN, PART 2 of 2
I have spent so much time and effort researching and writing on this subject for one single reason… I know that if the American people cannot get this one thing right, there is no chance that they will get anything else right in their efforts to defend the Constitution and regain control of their stolen Republic.

This is the lynch pin to everything. If the American people can get this one issue right and act swiftly to enforce it, they can save their country. If they cannot get this right, they will get nothing else right…

I WISH YOU PEACE - THE EAGLES

I always loved The Eagles.

This has always been my favorite song, even though it was only an 'album cut' from "One Of These Nights" released in 1975.



"Take It To The Limit" (my second favorite song) was a #4 single from the same album:

Prophetic

Leo Donofrio, Esq. 2009:
I continue to press this issue for fear that it will continue to erode the chain of command. The brave men and women of our military deserve to know for certain that their Commander is Constitutionally eligible to lead them.

SCOTUS ought to revisit Cort Wrotnowski’s case if they truly care about the future of this nation and the health of our republic… which is being torn apart by this issue as we speak.

I personally don’t care who the President is anymore. I’ll never care again. Both McCain and Obama have damaged the office and this nation severely by their willingness to put us through this. It doesn’t matter who the President is. We’ll still be at war. We will still have poverty, hatred, racism, fascism, sarcasm, nukes, etc… the new boss is the same as the old boss. We do get fooled again. Everytime. But if we let this sit and the chain of command erodes… Goodbye Ms. American Pie.

The hidden history of the minimum wage in America

Mark J. Perry is concurrently a scholar at AEI and a professor of economics and finance at the University of Michigan's Flint campus. He is best known as the creator and editor of the popular economics blog Carpe Diem. At AEI, Perry writes about economic and financial issues for American.com and the AEIdeas blog.
Don [George Mason University economics professor Don Boudreaux] has emphasized a very important, but usually overlooked or neglected reason that some empirical studies fail to find negative employment effects following increases in the minimum wage government-mandated wage floor that guarantees reduced employment opportunities for America’s teenagers and low-skilled workers (especially minorities). That reason has to do with the fact that the minimum wage has been in effect for almost 80 years since the Fair Unfair to Unskilled Labor Standards Act was passed in 1938, and it’s been increased 27 times since then. Therefore, the government’s mandated market-suppressing, artificial wage for low- and un-skilled workers has been around for such a long time, and it’s been raised so many times, that the distortionary effects of the minimum wage have long ago been “internalized” by employers who hire unskilled workers.

Constitutional law professor reminds us that Congress can't amend the constitution!!

The Natural Born Citizen Clause as Originally Understood

Mary Brigid McManamon 

Widener University Delaware Law School
June 2, 2014

********************
[Re: 1952 McCarran-Walter Act--lgstarr]

Page 345: “A bedrock principle of our constitutional system holds that Congress cannot make such an alteration…”

Page 346: “Congress cannot amend the Constitution by statute.”

********************

The relationship between Congress and the American Constitution is quite different. According to the Supreme Court in Marbury v. Madison, 121 to allow Congress the same latitude as Parliament

would subvert the very foundation of all written constitutions. It would declare that an act, which, according to the principles and theory of our government, is entirely void; is yet, in practice, completely obligatory. It would declare, that if the legislature shall do what is expressly forbid[d]en, such act, notwithstanding the express prohibition, is in reality effectual. It would be giving to the legislature a practical and real omnipotence, with the same breath which professes to restrict their powers within narrow limits.122

Therefore, Congress cannot alter who is eligible to run for President by statute. Such a dramatic change requires a constitutional amendment.123

Unsurprisingly, no evidence suggests Congress intended to expand the class of persons who could run for President. Moreover, early commentators agreed that the use of “natural born” in the first naturalization act did not amend Article II. For example, St. George Tucker¾a professor of law at the College of William and Mary124¾published his edition of Blackstone’s Commentaries in 1803, wherein he provided his own notes concerning the differences between English and American law.125 With respect to naturalization and citizenship, he cited all of the American naturalization statutes enacted to that date, including the 1790 Act.126 He then concluded that “[p]ersons [] naturalized according to these acts, are entitled to all the rights of natural-born citizens, except . . . they are forever incapable of being chosen to the office of president of the United States.”127 In any event, Congress swiftly repealed the 1790 statute in 1795.128

********************

IV. CONCLUSION The introduction to this Article posed a question: “in the eyes of early Americans, would someone born in a foreign country of American parents be a ‘natural born citizen’ and therefore eligible to be President of the United States?” The pertinent historical materials lead to only one conclusion: aside from children born to U.S. ambassadors or soldiers in hostile armies, the answer is “no.”

Beware of Technology named Beware

The Washington Post reports that there is a technology used by police forces called Beware. Beware, marketed by Intrado, profiles the threat level of a prospect for a police call. Calls to residences are among the most dangerous for police to answer. Their chances of being in harms way is much higher. So in addition to its 200 police camera "perched across the city," 800 more from schools and traffic cameras, and another several hundred worn by officers, the Fresno Police Department is testing yet another technology that is so invasive that it assigns a threat level to the person in the house before the police knock on the door. This is the type of technology used to spy on you every day. There's more.

The Post reports: "The cameras were only one tool at the ready. Officers could trawl a private database that has recorded more than 2 billion scans of vehicle license plates and locations nationwide. If gunshots were fired, a system called ShotSpotter could triangulate the location using microphones strung around the city. Another program, called Media Sonar, crawled social media looking for illicit activity...But perhaps the most controversial and revealing technology is the threat-scoring software Beware. Fresno is one of the first departments in the nation to test the program...As officers respond to calls, Beware automatically runs the addresses...to generate a color-coded threat level for each person."

Intrado's website describes Beware as: "Accessed through any browser (fixed or mobile) on any Internet-enabled device including tablets, smartphones, laptop and desktop computers, Beware® from Intrado searches, sorts and scores billions of publicly-available commercial records in a matter of seconds - alerting responders to potentially dangerous situations while en route to, or at the location of, a 9-1-1 request for assistance." It actually assigns a threat level of green, yellow, or red. But the company secret is how Beware scores an individual to assign the threat level, and its accuracy. A Fresno City Councilman had his threat level run and his home was rated yellow because of a previous resident, the Post reported.

Protecting police officers from unnecessary risk is important. Protecting personal privacy is a Constitutional requirement. Instead of being stewards of public property, such as roads, parks, schools, government buildings and the like, the government--local, state, and federal--has become dictator over public property. There is a big difference between a steward and a dictator. Under the deceptive guise of protection, your rights, your religious beliefs, your ability feel secure in the privacy of your home, can be violated by the all-knowing government. Exodus 20:3 says, "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." Government is not God. We should ensure that it understands that while we still have a say.
Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!

The founders in your face: "natural born Citizen, or a Citizen"

Capitalization, The Constitution, And The Meaning Of Natural Born Citizenship"
Here is the eligibility clause, exactly as the Founders wrote it, and as we should always reproduce it in our writings:
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.
A great many people believe, rightfully so, that all U.S. citizens have equal rights and responsibilities. Unfortunately, they also believe that all citizens therefore have the right to serve as President. This thinking is incorrect, and the Founders demonstrate this clearly in the above quotation.

Note first how they assigned importance to the term by capitalizing the word “Citizen,” giving it special significance. Note also that the Founders placed two adjectives before the first Citizen, but not in front of the second Citizen. This is a distinction with a profound difference! Words have meaning. Those two simple adjectives tell us the Founders wanted a special kind of Citizen to serve as President of the United States.

TED CRUZ IS IN THE US SENATE ILLEGALLY?

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.

Why it matters

My Name is Bakht Awar Ahmadi an Afghani Patriot…I’m a very devout Muslim.

I am married to an Native born American woman who converted to Islam shortly after our marriage in order to please me…Allah has blessed us with two wonderful sons who are taught only in the ways of Islam.

We have raised our two sons, Ahmed Ibrahim and Abdul Shahid in the Mideast for 30 years and I could not be any more prouder of my sons than I am today, as they have both become very devout followers of Allah, their desires to please Muhammad will make it absolutely impossible for them to be loyal or to assimilate into any other culture than Islam, or, to serve anyone but Allah. Their loyalties are to Allah, Muhammad, and the Koran only…

My family, Catherine Mosley Ahmadi, and our two sons who are [naturalized American citizens] through their mothers American citizenship moved to America when they were 28 and 30 years of age, and are still waiting to be Naturalized myself…

Both our sons are frequently traveling back and forth to their homeland for both business and pleasure, and continue today to make their yearly pilgrimage to Mecca to pay homage to Allah and Muhammad which is an important part of our culture.

By design and conditioning….both our sons have become active in American politics. Abdul today is an elected Representative for Chicago’s District 7 and has become very well liked in his district, he is also considered an energetic and charismatic activist for the civil rights movement, he is both an outstanding leader and role model for our young Black and Arab inner city kids and has made great progress working closely with our dear friend Louis Farrakhan’s Nation of Islam and CAIR to bring America’s mistreatment of Muslim’s into the spotlight and for lowering the crime in his district.

20 years after first arriving in the United States at the age of 48, our youngest son Abdul Shahid Abmadi desires to run for the Presidency as a faithful Democrat so that he can make the necessary changes he believes will better the treatment of Muslims across this nation, especially after witnessing our country being destroyed by American intervention for 14 years of his life, and renounces his Afghani citizenship in order to meet all the requirements the Democrats, Republicans and the American people have redefined to suit those just like himself who were born outside of the United States…

Abdul Shahid Ahmadi was born to ONE American PARENT and is a Naturalized American Citizen, and even though he was born and lived in Afghanistan for 28 years of his life, he is made eligible thanks to those who were so supportive of Barack Obama and Rafael Cruz, and, his having lived in the United States for the required 14 years and his being 48 years of age, well above the 35 years of age that is required makes him eligible for the Presidency….

According to the Rafael Cruz and Obama supporters, Abdul Shahid has met all the requirements to run for the Presidency of the United States of America.

Abdul Shahid quickly becomes a champion leader and a very popular 2 term Representative of the Democrat Party in the District 7 area of Chicago and the surrounding areas for his outspokenness against the hate speech aimed at Muslims and has a huge following amongst both the Arab Muslim and Black community’s, he also counts the many White Liberals in the Democrat party as his most loyal supporters…

The Democrats wanting to vote in the First ever American Afghani Muslim have an electorate turnout of 48% in the 2032 general election and the voting fraud is of a massive scale, which overwhelms the conservative Candidate.

Abdul Shahid Ahmadi ultimately wins the 2032 elections by a landslide to become the 48th President of the United States of America and, the very first American Afghani Muslim President ever to hold our highest office………….

Any fool that thinks this is what our Framers intended needn’t vote, you have no business whatsoever at a ballot box. You are the problem we face today, you are a very real threat to the continued existence and safety of this Nation and Republic and a very real danger to the American people and the future of this country….

Hillary’s EmailGate Goes Nuclear

John Schindler is a security expert and former National Security Agency analyst and counterintelligence officer.
...the biggest problem may be in a just-released email that has gotten little attention here, but plenty on the other side of the world. An email to Hillary from a close Clinton confidant late on June 8, 2011 about Sudan turns out to have explosive material in it. This message includes a detailed intelligence report from Sid Blumenthal, Hillary’s close friend, confidant, and factotum, who regularly supplied her with information from his private intelligence service. His usual source was Tyler Drumheller, a former CIA senior official and veteran spy-gadfly, who conveniently died just before EmailGate became a serious problem for Hillary’s campaign.
Now the NSA is involved:
No surprise, NSA is aflutter this weekend over this strange matter. One Agency official expressed to me “at least 90 percent confidence” that Mr. Blumenthal’s June 8 report was derived from NSA reports, and the Agency ought to be investigating the matter right now.

There are many questions here. How did Sid Blumenthal, who had no position in the U.S. Government in 2011, and hasn’t since Bill Clinton left the White House fifteen years ago, possibly get his hands on such highly classified NSA reporting? Why did he place it an open, non-secure email to Hillary, who after all had plenty of legitimate access, as Secretary of State, to intelligence assessments from all our spy agencies? Moreover, how did the State Department think this was Unclassified and why did it release it to the public?

It’s possible this Blumenthal report did not come from NSA, but perhaps from another, non-American intelligence agency – but whose? If Sid was really able to get top-level intelligence like this for Hillary, using just his shoestring operation, and get it into her hands a day later, with precise information about the high-level conspiracy that was just discussed over in Sudan, the Intelligence Community needs to get him on our payroll stat. He’s a pro at the spy business.

Bottom line: Ted Cruz is not a "natural born citizen" as required by the U.S. constitution

Cruz was born in Canada, presumably to a U.S. citizen mother and a non-U.S. citizen father. He can be a citizen of the United States at birth, but only by virtue of a naturalization Act of Congress (section 301(a)(7) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952). He is not and cannot be a natural born citizen under the common law because, while he was born to a U.S. citizen mother, he was not born in the United States and he was born to a non-U.S. citizen father.

Rubio and Jindal were born in the United States to two non-U.S. citizen parents. They are both citizens of the United States at birth, but only by virtue of the Fourteenth Amendment. They are not and cannot be natural born citizens under the common law because, while they were born in the United States, they were born to two non-U.S. citizen parents.
