All three of those former presidential candidates were taking tremendous heat early on regarding their eligibility under the U.S. Constitution. It continued for months and in the case of Cruz, lawsuits were filed to keep him off the ballot. Jindal and Rubio are U.S. citizens, but not natural born citizens despite the intellectually lazy in the media who could care less about the U.S. Constitution. Cruz's US citizenship still remains unproven.
Jindal was born in June 1971. His mother became a U.S. citizen in 1976 and his father in 1986. Hardly 'natural BORN'. Rubio was born in 1971. His parents became U.S. citizens in 1975. Hardly natural BORN'.
Cruz was born in Canada in 1970. Most who have done zero research believe he held dual citizenship since his mother was born in the U.S. However, Canada did not recognize dual citizenship until 1977, so Cruz was a full blown Canadian citizen until he renounced in 2014 and became a citizen of no country.
I say no country because Cruz refuses to provide a court certified copy of a CRBA (Consulate Report of Birth Abroad) filed by his parents when he was born. He refuses to provide a copy of his passport or any other documentation proving US. citizenship. If a CRBA wasn't properly submitted when Cruz was born, then how does he even claim U.S. citizenship?
Cruz is up for reelection to the Senate in 2018. I can tell you right now he will not slip through the cracks again here in Texas. Cruz was a full Canadian citizen in 2012 when he ran for the Senate. No one, including yours truly questioned his eligibility because honestly, I didn't know. But, it will be different in 2018.
Nikki Haley is governor of South Carolina. Her history according to Wikipedia: "Haley was born Nimrata Nikki Randhawa[1][2] in Bamberg, South Carolina, on January 20, 1972, to an Indian Sikh family.[14] She was "always called Nikki, which means "little one," by her family."[15] Her parents, Ajit Singh Randhawa and Raj Kaur Randhawa, are immigrants from Amritsar District, Punjab, India, where Ajit had been a professor at Punjab Agricultural University. Haley's parents immigrated to Canada after her father received a scholarship offer from the University of British Columbia. After earning his PhD in 1969, Ajit moved his young family to South Carolina to accept a position as a professor at Voorhees College.[16]"
Haley's parents left India for Canada. Her parents then moved to SC in 1969. Haley was born in 1972. It takes at least 5 years to become a U.S. citizen. In order for Haley to be a natural born citizen, both her parents had to be U.S. citizens at the time of her birth. According to the public narrative on her bio, Haley was born three years after her parents moved to SC. Who knows when her parents applied to become U.S. citizens and what date were they naturalized?
I bring this up because, God forbid, there's talk of Nikki Haley being a VP to Donald Trump. The vice-president is one heart beat away from the Oval Office and must be a natural born citizen because a VP is a president-in-waiting should something happen to the president.
I'm not certain Jindal knew prior to running he was ineligible, but he most certainly got a good education about natural born from people all over the country including his own state. Jindal didn't give a damn and plodded along until even he could see no one was interested in what he had to say.
