No

Kagan, Sotomayor, Breyer, and Ginsberg would be happy to join him in that opinion.

[Az Joe]

No

[Lurkinanloomin]

Yes they would.

[Az Joe]

Nah

A reasonable and coherent post.

You might wear your flak jacket though, LOL

Why do you waste your energy arguing with such silliness :)

Your temper is up there with mine!

Cruz would be an Excellent Justice but he does not want the job.

He’s said it so many times. Can that change? Sure. But I think he still wants that big prize, the Presidency.

As long as he keeps supporting Trump’s appointees and voting Conservative, I’ve got no problems with him.

Loved him at one point. Then he lost me at the end.

Things change with time. We shall see.

Good post, but its a waste of effort to post to one of the moray eels that are trying to demolish FR.

Personally, I think Cruz is setting the stage as the “good guy” so he can keep his name in the front, hopefully convincing people that he IS a good guy so they will vote for him when he runs for president the next time.

I agree and think Cruz is off to a good start on his rehabilitation with Trump. He's up for reelection in two years so he better maintain his good behavior.

Ted Cruz is the very definition of common sense conservatism.

Ah, there’s Cruz haters here and believe it or not, still some Trump haters.

I know some people outside of FR that would hate Trump even if he risked his life by diving into a river to save a box of puppies :)

And FR will always be strong because there are many good men and women here. We outnumber the others.

Cruz will never be president. He is too conservative to be elected by the country as a whole. He'll be continually disappointed if he runs again and loses. After a couple of runs, he'll be known as a loser. Sounding good and getting the votes are two different things. Ted sounds good but he can't garner enough votes. They're just not out there for a far-right conservative.

He would, however, be a great member of the Supreme Court. Not many opportunities like a seat on the Supreme Court, present themselves more than once in a career. He shouldn't pass up Trump's offer, if made.

People say he couldn't get confirmed by the Senate because so many Senators don't like him personally or his caustic style.

I prefer to think that the Senate will confirm him in a heartbeat, just to get him out of their hair. He has been a thorn in their sides for sometime now.

Ted Cruz is the very definition of common sense conservatism.

IF he had a shred of 'common sense' he would have never run for president. As a Harvard Law School graduate, it is NOT as though he is ignorant of the Constitution... But hey first 'black' Obama screwed our Constitution, why not a first Cuban Cruz.

Ted Cruz had the potential to be a great American hero. No doubt he is gifted, however, he has the maturity of a two year old. Time will tell if Ted Cruz will ever admit, he is not, nor will he ever be eligible to hold the office of President.

But, what is even worse is the number of 'natural born' US citizens willing to toss out their God given right.

Some people have double minds, when they on the one hand preach 'man' is head of the house hold, and then in the next breath give woman the authority to designate the citizenship of the child... That is liberalism NOT common sense.

Coming from the likes of you, I'll take that as a compliment!

Thanks!

Yep, you’re just like Nancy Pelosi; she thinks being called a Democrat is a compliment.

It is you that are ignorant, both of what the constitution actually says, and what the courts have clarified, way back when the founders were still on the bench.

Ted Cruz was born a US citizen, and that is what natural born means.

Twist in the wind as you are accustomed to do.

The problem is the trolls that are trying their best to turn FR into a noise box, to dampen our influence.

You're so easy.
