Why does he oppose this? The president has the legal authority to ban people from any nation and class that he deems detrimental to the interests of the US.
We know that Cruz is a strict constitutionalist, so I'm guessing that he's misapplying the principle that underlies the First Amendment, which is religious freedom.
Ted needs to realize that it*s impossible to tolerate a religion that doesn't tolerate other religions, without ending religious tolerance for all but the intolerant group, in this case, Mohammedans.
Acknowledging this fact is problematic for Cruz, for whom the Constitution is a hallowed document. The framers of the Constitution should have qualified the First Amendment with regard to intolerant, militant, and seditious religions.
I don*t think Trump has worked through this either; he has simply observed that all terrorists are Mohammedans, so we should keep them out of the country (**until we figure out what*s going on**). He is right, even if he can*t articulate the principles involved.
It's my understanding that is the exclusive domain of the Congress.
Am I mistaken?
So what are we suppose to do? Continue for have them to flood into this country? How are we going to get this mess resolved????...makes no sense.....sorry Teddy bear I don’t agree with you......
