Ridiculous: Breitbart News Wrongly Declares Canadian-Born Ted Cruz Eligible To Be President

Excerpt:
Again, the U.S. Constitution is not a dictionary. What complete madness to suggest someone born in another country is somehow a "natural born Citizen" of the United States and eligible to be POTUS. It is complete rubbish and they know it. Harvard educated attorney and law professor Herb Titus confirms that a "natural born Citizen" is one born on U.S. soil to U.S. citizen parents. This is elementary stuff. Just read Article II yourself and it is clear as day that a "citizen" and "natural born Citizen" are very much different.
YES, TED CRUZ LIKELY ELIGIBLE TO BE PRESIDENT

On Mar. 8, reporter Carl Cameron on Special Report on Fox News Channel was surveying potential GOP 2016 presidential candidates. Then he raised Ted Cruz--one of the most brilliant constitutional lawyers ever to serve in the Senate--the new 41-year old Hispanic senator from Texas.
Cameron added, “But Cruz was born in Canada and is constitutionally ineligible” to run for president. While many people assume that, it’s probably not true.
Cameron was referring to the Constitution’s Article II requirement that only a “natural born citizen” can run for the White House.
No one is certain what that means. Citizenship was primarily defined by each state when the Constitution was adopted. Federal citizenship wasn't clearly established until the Fourteenth Amendment was ratified in 1868. The Constitution is not clear whether it means you must be born on U.S. soil, or instead whether you must be born a U.S. citizen.
