Was Ted Cruz's father a US Citizen at the time of Ted Cruz's birth? If so, and his mother was also a US citizen at the time of his birth, then Ted Cruz is a Natural Born US Citizen, no matter "where" he was born.
Obama's father was not a US citizen at the time of Obama's birth (or ever, for that matter), so even though his mother was a US citizen at the time of his birth, he father wasn't. Therefore, Obama IS a US Citizen, but he IS NOT a Natural Born US Citizen. Where he was born makes no difference. Whether he was born in Hawaii, or Kenya, or on the Moon doesn't matter.
The criteria for becoming POTUS is that you must be a NATURAL BORN US CITIZEN, not just a US Citizen.
Keep in mind, natural born does not mean born on US soil, it means that both of your parents were US Citizens at the time of your birth.
