Obama Trolls Ted Cruz So Hard With Canadian Birth Joke

During a state dinner Thursday evening with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, President Barack Obama got in a little jab at Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas)

During his toast, which was ripe with humor, Obama outlined that both the U.S. and Canada offered extraordinary opportunities for its citizens. Want proof? Obama said just look toward the 2016 Republican presidential contest.

"Where else could a boy born in Calgary run for president of the United States?" Obama asked in an allusion to Cruz whose eligibility to run for the White House has been called into question by Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump.
