Vanity: House Speaker Ted Cruz??
National Review ^

Posted on 09/27/2013 4:07:06 PM PDT by ConservativeMan55

Remember.. ANYONE can be voted Speaker of the House!

You do NOT have to be a Member of the House to become the Speaker. Maybe he could become Speaker before becoming President.

After reading this article in the National Review.. I think it could happen! Just floating the idea!

All Cruz is doing to filling vacum because of lack leadership in both houses of congress.

Cruz is now officially the unofficial leader of the conservative movement.

I think if the idea is floated.. there is a good chance it could happen.

Probably won't happen, but I would be thrilled to have someone with Cruz's principles as speaker. Boehner has to go.

Yup. Representatives will never vote for a non-Rep to become Speaker. Technically possible, but it has never happened before.

I believe the Senator would have to become a member of the House of Representatives first for that to happen.
