I really wish Ted would just focus on being a good Senator for Texas.
I’m never voting for an ineligible candidate, even one I somewhat like.

Don’t get your hopes up on that.

He REALLY wanted to be president and I don’t think that has gone away.

Why is there a debate about him being eligible or ineligible to run?

Is it in black and white in the constitution or not?

I am the FURTHEST things from an expert :)

Yes, if only for the precedent it would set.

“I’m never voting for an ineligible candidate, even one I somewhat like.”

I think you’re the only never-Cruzer (for president) on this forum I can hold with deep respect. While I disagree with you on Cruz’s eligibility, your arguments are strong and principled. In fact, at one time Cruz questioned his own eligibility, so for even those of us who consider him eligible, it is not an open and shut case. Trump handled this issue with perfect finesse during the 2016 campaign.

While I like Cruz a lot as a senator, and I voted for him in the 2016 primary, I doubt his ongoing presidential aspirations have much of a chance.
