Here it is - but be aware that immigration policies jump around like rabbits.

U.S. Department of State, Consulate General: Qualifying for US Citizenship

United States citizenship is not determined by birth in the United States alone. It is possible for U.S. citizen parents to transmit citizenship to their children depending on when the child was born and when the parents lived in the United States. Occasionally, during the visa process, officers may discover that an applicant qualifies to be an U.S. citizen.

If you feel you or your family member applying for a visa might be a U.S. citizen, answer these questions:

Thanks!

According the chart in your link, Cruz is good to run.

If the applicant was born to one U.S. citizen parent and one alien parent, then the U.S. citizen parent must have resided in the U.S. ten years prior to the applicant's birth, with five of those years occurring after the parent turned 14.

Well after beeing beaten over the head withing being so completely wrong about Obama I hope the birthers do not continue make fools of themselves with Cruz. If they do you have to give the credit for being able to live completely outside of reality.

Really, just because he showed an alleged Photoshopped long form birth certificate, refuses all access to college transcripts, etc

Funny how no previous President showed any birth certificate.... and every single previous President also refused access to their college records....

that might show him as a foreign student

The funniest thing is some birthers are still falling for a obvious April fools joke years later!

CNN says Obama citizenship is settled.

Well, he is the President, elected twice, and every single birther court case has failed, and the courts have declared Obama a natural born US citizen....

If he was born in Canada as indicated then his Canadian birth certificate should immediately disqualify him from running for president. So ATS what say you?

Why do you think that? Being a dual citizen does not disqualify anyone from becoming president.

Not sure about Obama--who is his daddy and/or where was he born?

We know Obama is a natural born US citizen as he was born in Hawaii.

The Constitution is supposed to be the Law of the Land. What's the point of being a nation of laws if we're not going to follow them???

Ask birthers that, as they do not want to follow the constitution!

He has article after article about the 'natural born citizen' issue:

Funny how he links to claims by "experts" that Obama's BC is fake, yet none of the "experts" ever examined it! So that website cannot be trusted!

Well it looks like that nut bag Donald Trump has declared Cruz can not run for President. This is pretty funny. Which way will FOX go with this one. If the back Cruz then it makes everything they said about Obama look silly. If they back Trump then it might make loyal Fox viewers heads explode.
