then why go thru all that trouble if his mother is a U.S. citizen?what about obama?
For the same reasons, I believe Obama is eligible as his mother was a US Citizen.
However, I believe there has been major fraud behind making it appear he was born in Hawaii which if it had been investigated fully would have prevented him from being elected.

what about obama?too bad he was born in Canada
This seems as though it would not prevent eligibility according to many sources such as:
http://www.politifact.com/ohio/article/2013/may/09/ted-cruz-eligible-under-constitution-become-presid/QuoteCRS says: "The weight of legal and historical authority indicates that the term 'natural born' citizen would mean a person who is entitled to U.S. citizenship 'by birth' or 'at birth,' either by being born 'in' the United States and under its jurisdiction, even those born to alien parents; by being born abroad to U.S. citizen-parents; or by being born in other situations meeting legal requirements for U.S. citizenship 'at birth.'"
http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2013-05-06/politics/39064704_1_ted-cruz-u-s-citizen-rand-paulQuoteThe Constitution states the president must be a “natural-born citizen.” Cruz’s mother was a U.S. citizen when he was born (his father was born in Cuba) and current law extends citizenship to anyone born to a U.S. citizen, regardless of where the birth takes place. The question is whether U.S. citizenship is the same thing as being a “natural-born citizen.”
Cruz’s spokesman Catherine Frazier said Monday that the senator “is a U.S. citizen by birth, having been born in Calgary to an American-born mother.”
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/05/19/cruz-eligible-presidential-run/QuoteTexas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz was born in Canada but is qualified to become president should he mount a campaign in 2016 or beyond.
Cruz was born in Calgary, and his father is from Cuba. But the Republican senator’s mother is from the first state of Delaware, which appears to settle the issue.
