Here is some information I'm sure many folks might have missed about Ted Cruz. Needless to say, if Cruz had become the nominee the other side would have made sure this got noticed real well!

One of the comments under the article:
One has to be paid to support such a low-life who showed exactly what he is since this all started last year. Born in Canada of a Cuban father and immigrant to Canada, with sealed documents just like our current usurper, should never be in any position within our government. Get him out of here. Period.
In 1997, Michael Wayne Haley was arrested after stealing a calculator from Walmart. This was a crime that merited a maximum two-year prison term. But prosecutors incorrectly applied a habitual offender law. Neither the judge nor the defense lawyer caught the error and Haley was sentenced to 16 years.
Eventually, the mistake came to light and Haley tried to fix it. Ted Cruz was solicitor general of Texas at the time. Instead of just letting Haley go for time served, Cruz took the case to the Supreme Court to keep Haley in prison for the full 16 years.
The case reveals something interesting about Cruz’s character. In his career and public presentation Cruz is a stranger to most of what would generally be considered the Christian virtues: humility, mercy, compassion and grace. Cruz’s behavior in the Haley case is almost the dictionary definition of pharisaism: an overzealous application of the letter of the law in a way that violates the spirit of the law, as well as fairness and mercy.
Hope Trump leaves him OUT of any position in his cabinet. Nevercruz!
I suppose you lump all the supreme court justices in your screed too.
