Original Note:
Although Ted Cruz was born in Canada, he was born a US citizen and accordingly was never an immigrant - a term that refers to non-citizens. Various news organizations explained this distinction, when Cruz announced his campaign for president in 2016. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2016/01/07/yes-ted-cruz-is-a-natural-born-citizen/ https://law.marquette.edu/facultyblog/2016/02/ted-cruz-as-a-natural-born-citizen/comment-page-1/ https://www.bbc.com/news/election-us-2016-36034030
