Man, I am so jealous of Ted Cruz right now. Since he was born in Canada — even though to an American citizen — it ends up he automatically gets Canadian citizenship even though he never sought it out. So, just clear things up for a presidential run, he’s going to renounce his Canadian citizenship.
Man, I would love to be able to renounce a non-American citizenship. My dad always told me a story of my grandfather (also Frank J. Fleming) who when getting his American citizenship after moving here from Ireland, was asked, “Do you renounce the king of England?”
And he replied, “I did that years ago.”
Wouldn’t it be great to have an awesome renunciation of a former citizenship? Here’s what I recommend for Ted Cruz: Go to North Dakota to the Canadian border for his announcement. Stand at the border and say, “I renounced my Canadian citizenship. Canadians are nothing but a bunch of maple-syrup swilling, moose-munching, cheap American-knockoffs.” Then he can break a hockey stick in two and set fire to a maple leaf. “North of me is nothing but losers.” And then he can spit over the border.
People seeing that would be like, “Wow. Now there is a true American who loves America — unlike certain other current president and unaccomplished, shrewish, overly-ambitious former first ladies.” He’d be 2016’s front runner.
And if he wore a sixgun on each hip and fired them wildly into the air as he spoke, it would be perfect.
Well, no need to be rude to the neighbors; no telling when they might break you out of Iran or something. It would be very dramatic, especially with a pair of Colts.
I am in the same boat as Ted Cruz in that I was born to a Canadian mother (albeit in the US) so I also have dual citizenship. However, moose are not nearly so nosy as the NSA or the IRS, and Canadian healthcare can’t be any worse than Obamacare so I am keeping my options open, eh.
So, Frank’s grandfather was a potato-licker? Who knew?
You know, Frank, we do qualify for Irish citizenship. Our father received it automatically due to Irish parents, even it he did not register with the office of foreign births. You or I could claim it through our grandparents; doesn’t work for great-grandchildren. So you could claim it, then renounce it.

‘foo,
I did not know that. Hmm… renouncing my association with those drunken, potato-lickers could be fun…
You forgot to mention all them Frenchies in Quebec. There’s lots to hate about them.
Sure Ted Cruz is not Canadian. You can tell right away because he doesn’t have a flappy head!
I’m picturing the ceremony like this.
Frank, instead, you need to honor your grandfather by having potatoes for dinner.
Bear in mind, however, “…if the cat had kittens in the oven, we wouldn’t call ’em biscuits”, which I guess is sorta what my Lumbee roommate was going on about with his t-shirt that said “Native American.”
IDK what anyone says but Cruz, by his own admission is an ILLEGAL ALIEN and can not run for president. PERIOD
Deskin,
Are you an actual nut or just pretending to be one?
If you’re pretending, good use of caps.
Not Nuts That is you Tea partners!! You ppl are all NUTZ!!
Ted Cruz is a Canadian/American and never went through the legalization process. I think we should deport him back to Canada and if he wants back in the make him go through the line like everyone else!
Deskin,
If you were NUTS, I wonder if there would BE some OBVIOUS tell.
Well I can tell that you are Crazy, You’re bullsh!t doe’s not bother me at all!! I can deal w/ regular crazy look it up I think you will find an expiation of you’re condition
!
I forgot what trolls looked like.
LMFAO Jimmy, Good one. Frank is a crazy troll !
It matters not, he can renounce his Canadian citizenship until he’s blue in the face, he was still born there and that will always be a fact!!
🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

He will never run mark my words when I say that because we are gearing up for the smearing of that Dog sh!t, Ted Cruz he is a real nasty person and would sell you and me out in a Canadian Sec.
Why renounce it?! This is the perfect opportunity to unite the whole of North America under one ruler. He just has to get elected in BOTH countries at once. BAM! now we have 10 more states.
Too bad he wasn’t Mexican; then he’d have an excuse to go after Central America while he was at it.
The word “sh!t” is prohibited by WordPress and would have to allowed through… by Frank!!
Your real lucky, William. But not too bright, aren’tcha? Now try figuring out who Frank J. is.
I always blame Canada…We must blame them and cause a fuss
Before somebody thinks of blaming us!
With all their beady little eyes
And flapping heads so full of lies!
With all their hockey hullabaloo!
#10 – But, if a dog had puppies in an oven, Obama would call them appetizers.
Also, Alaska is further north than Canada, and it’s way more awesome than all of New England combined. >.>
As long as the Canadians dollar remains stronger than ours, maybe we should be nice to them?
We might be going to them for work, or asking for refugee status before this all plays out.
