Yes, Ted Cruz Is Eligible To Be President

It seems suspicious that most of the Drive-By media is suddenly interested in Birther issues.  Oh wait, Ted Cruz may be running for President.  It is well know that Cruz was born in Canada to an American Citizen, his mother. Cruz tweaks the Drive-bys with the release of his long form birth certificate. To settle the matter, one must refer to the INS rules and regs.

From DrewMusing:

One parent is a U.S. citizen at the time of birth and the birthdate is before November 14, 1986 but after October 10, 1952

The parents are married at the time of birth and the U.S. citizen parent was physically present in the U.S. or its territories for a period of at least ten years at some time in his or her life prior to the birth, at least five of which were after his or her 14^thbirthday.If the U.S. citizen parent spent time abroad in any of the following three capacities, this can also be counted towards the physical presence requirement:

• Serving honorably in the U.S. Armed Forces;
• Employed with the U.S. Government; or
• Employed with certain international organizations.

Additionally, time spent abroad by the U.S. citizen parent while the U.S. citizen parent was the unmarried son or daughter and a member of the household of a person who meets any of the three conditions listed above can also be counted.

Cruz was born in 1970, so the regs above applies. Which means, he's clearly a CITIZEN!
