I love Cruz and agree with you, BUT, he's a Canadian. He can't run. I like Rand Paul, but I think he has his fathers disease of believing the Muslims mean us no harm if we just leave them alone. IMHO, Rubio has something to prove to me that he's not just another RINO.

I love the Tea Party, but there is more to life than just the tax structure. If the Tea Party takes no more issues than just the budget and taxes, they will be irrelevant. How about guns for instance? How about abortion? How about marriage?

If they don't take a stand on other issues they will be kicked to the curb.

Ted was born in Canada, but his mother was a U.S. citizen by birth. I believe that his father had already become a U.S. citizen by the time Ted was born.
