Totally true. Wasn't John McCain born in panama, or there a bouts?
John McCain’s Presidential Eligibility
But McCain is a natural-born citizen, even though he was not born within this country’s borders, since his parents were citizens at the time of his birth. As a congressional act stated in 1790:
Congress: “And the children of citizens of the United States, that may be born beyond sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born citizens.”
Applies to Cruz too.
