Perfect timing-rattle their cages big time . His confirmation hearings would be right in the heat of the election season, articulating the GOP positions that the cowards in our party won't defend. What are the Democrats gonna do?
There's more: When the election is over Cruz has the option of DECLINING the job, starting a new set of hearings, pissing off and exposing OUR turncoats. It all starts with an orchestrating meeting between Trump and Clarence Thomas-payback. LMFAO.
I once supported this - enthusiastically.
Then Cruz showed his hand by deciding that he was Constitutionally qualified to be President. I don’t want anyone on the bench who either 1. doesn’t understand what a Natural Born Citizen is, or, 2. is willing to twist the plain meaning of the Constitution for self-serving purposes.
Sorry. No Cruz.
Lyn’ Ted’s father is an interesting, unexplored connection. Consider that when his friendship and connection to Oswald came up, Lyn’ Ted complained, then quit within two days. Bet there is a lot more there. Lyn’ Ted is so full of lies, bet he doesn’t know where they start or end. His 15 minutes are up. Shame on anyone still making excuses for him.
He doesn’t have any actual record, judicial or otherwise.
His words don’t mean sh!t to me.
No thanks.

Crus is a TPP loving, illegal alien loving, ineligible liar.
PreambleWe the People gave ourselves the power to directly elect our representatives to the House of Representatives in the United States Congress. If you cannot vote for a Representative, then you are NOT We the People.We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Article I Section 2
The House of Representatives shall be composed of members chosen every second year by the people of the several states...
We the People "...ordain[ed] and establish[ed] this Constitution... in Order to... secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity." It is clear that Ted Cruz's father could not vote for the House of Representatives, therefore he was not "We the People." This means that Ted Cruz is not the "Posterity" of "We the People."
The "natural born citizen" clause was meant to secure the presidency. It has the tighter requirement of "natural born citizen" in contrast to Congress which only required "citizen." In other words, "citizen" equaled "We the People," while "natural born citizen" equaled "Posterity of We the People."
Ted Cruz is not the Posterity of We the People, therefore he is not a natural born citizen. He is what Thomas Paine called "half a foreigner" in The Rights of Man (1791).

1) SueRay-I agree 100%. The perfect Majority leader. That’s why he can decline after the hearings.
2) wrcase-vote him in to get rid of him? What if WE all come together in 18’ and get those 60 seats? If the winners owe him he could be Majority leader with Trump’s help-far fetched perhaps.
3) Reno: He will not lose. In the Spring of 2020 he can ‘discuss’ his options with Trump(and Clarence Thomas). Move to Cuba? That is a move for Rubio as President of Cuba-fast track to market economy.
4) Chris37-he’s argued cases before the Supremes.
5) I’ll agree that he could be another Warren or Roberts. The Rats don’t hate him for that reason.
He’s a liar and a fraud.
I could go for that.
But is is unlikely that the Senate would confirm.
He would certainly be a great choice, though.
Would rather see Cruz as AG.
Congrats....you win the award for throwing “Lyn” Ted the most times in a single post. You win a brand new tin foil hat, custom fitted to allow maximum comfort. (BTW...I think you meant “Lying”). Spell check is free here.
NO! His behavior during hiscanpaign should disqualify him from a lifetime appointment. Might as well nominate Glenn Beck. Just as squirrelly.
“Cruz would be a true champion of the constitution.”
Except for Article II, Section 1, Clause 5.
