Cruz Blew It - For All Of Us

Yeah that’s it! All the pundits IMAGINING what the other 16 should have said, done...

Well they are all done and they all should at least respect OUR VOTES if not the Man we choose!

But no, still whining, still imagining!

Here’s what I imagine!

They all go to vote anyway and vote for the only person capable of stopping 4 more years of obummer!

Because he LET HER GO FREE! And now she is his and his handler’s Puppet!

“Except with respect to the Second Amendment, I don’t think SCOTUS can pervert the law further.”

You have got to be kidding. Hell some judges have even talked about Sharia Law and using international laws.

We need a Constitutional judicial amendment:

1. the jurisdiction of federal courts shall be limited to:
a. cases where the federal government or a foreign government is either the plaintiff or a defendant
b. cases where either the plaintiff or a defendant is a foreign person covered by US accredited diplomatic status,
foreign public minister, a current/former US federal Constitutional officer or current/former US federal judge
c. controversies between two or more states
d. private civil disputes (primarily) of the District of Columbia or a federal territory or a federal reservation
e. federal copyright issues
f. patent and federal inventive exclusivity issues
g. admiralty and maritime issues
2. a state judge may be removed from office immediately by a 75% or more vote of a legislative branch of the state
3. any judicial action based on any activity or actionable inactivity in the state may be voided by a 90% or more vote of a legislative branch of the state
4. a. No judge or judicial body or judicial action may in any way usurp the spending power of an elected government
b. no judge serving any state shall cause the expenditure of money from a state or political subdivision except as exactly specified by detailed petition of the state legislature which includes a maximum total of money to be spent and any such judicial action shall be limited to the current fiscal year
5. all consent decrees or like involving a government or public entity created under law shall be forever void and none may be entered into
6. fines and judicially related costs assessed in total at any time against a US citizen shall not:
a. be increased for non-payment, except for simple annual interest at a rate of no more than 10% on amounts specified by law past due for at least a year
b. exceed the average income of the person for two months over the previous five calendar years or
300 times the hourly minimum wage of the citizen’s state or federal government, whichever is more
7. no private punitive damage award may be levied against a natural person
8. Every new contract/agreement involving a natural person with an arbitration clause shall state: arbitration fees payable by a natural person shall be the same as the lowest court fees that might otherwise be payable by that natural person and the party providing the arbitration clause agrees to promptly pay any additional appropriate amount
9. Attorney (and collection fees) payable by a natural person/person(s) under any new consumer contract/agreement, except primarily/exclusively for legal services, or under law shall not exceed the lowest governmental court fees as of January 2, 2016 for the amount awarded
10. In any class action involving consumers, plaintiff attorney fees and other compensation in total shall never exceed 10% of the cash awards provided to the consumers
11. the appointment of counsel paid by government funds now required by Amendment VI shall be limited to capital cases and cases with charges with the total potential of imprisonment for more than a year

Part of my Constitution amendment proposal on taxes/benefits:

The provision of benefits, medical/financial aid/help and welfare to persons and groups of persons by the federal government after October1, 2018 may only be funded:
1. from a basic rate income tax up to 10% on natural persons, and
2. to reasonably provide medical/retirement benefits to US people of at least 65 years of age:
a. flat-rate compensation taxation, equally up to 10% each on employer/employee, up to $24,000/year in total per employee
b. self-employment taxation no more than (a) employee taxation on an after federal tax basis
c. recipient medical insurance program premiums that may vary solely by age

Federal income tax above 30% on any person or entity to be solely useable to pay off now existing federal debt or that refinanced; the excess above 30% shall be refunded to the taxpayer if not so used within one year of receipt.

All other federal income taxation to be solely useable per federal statutory law to pay for the military, defense, maritime rescue, law enforcement (including border security and deportation), courts and other judicial bodies and related personnel, federal prisons, federal administration, executive branch, compensation for and care of federal personnel injuries in the line of duty, “post” roads/bridges/tunnels, but not for any form of welfare, benefit or purchase subsidy.

No unfair income taxation discrimination against any self-employed person shall be permitted after 2017; any excess amount(s) must be promptly refunded.

Dollar amounts above $100 may be uniformly adjusted by Congress, but no more than the lesser of 3% or 8/10ths of the lowest annual rate of any five-year or longer federal bond issued in the prior four years, for inflation in a prior calendar year.

No international taxation or its equivalent may be levied in the United States on US citizens, their income, their estates, their property, etc.

Electricity may not be made substantially more expensive by new domestic government action.

The tax caps and tax bars shall not be subject to loosening by amendment.

The benefit caps and benefit bars/limitations shall not be subject to loosening by amendment.

“international laws”

Should we assume that we in the USA alone can craft the best laws?

Exactly! Now, instead of being TrusTed, he’s ToasTed!

“Senator Cruz is a constitutionist. I am a constitutionist. I study our Constitution”

Oh good, so you, as well as Senator Cruz, know he is not eligible to be POTUS due to the natural born clause.

“Sharia Law”

What is your objection to Sharia Law, except for:
1. the stoning of women for adultery
2. the cutting off of the left hand for (repeated) theft

Why shouldn’t Moslem men be able to make contracts under Sharia Law given that a company can make me, a Florida resident, use the law of say California?

Why shouldn’t a 94-year old Moslem man not have the right to will his property under Sharia Law?

Despite Cruz's attacks on his party's donor class and establishment, the Texas senator Ted Cruz's GOP campaign has received $37 million from just four donors. The Wilks family of Cisco, Texas, New York hedge fund tycoon Bob Mercer, Texas energy investor Toby Neugebauer and Illinois manufacturing moguls Dick and Liz Uihlein.

His BC:

Ted Cruz has close association with the Bushes. He worked on George W. Bush^s 2000 presidential campaign as a domestic policy adviser and served in the Bush administration as associate deputy attorney general in the Justice Department and director of policy planning in the Federal Trade Commission. Time magazine article:
Time magazine had one of many reports clarifying his immigration posturing:

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz declined to close the door to a potential pathway to legal status for the 11 million people in the U.S. illegally Friday, saying he wouldn"t elaborate on his plans for them until after the border is secure.

Seeking to carve out a space between real estate mogul Donald Trump, who is calling for the forcible deportation of those in the U.S. illegally, and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who co-authored the Gang of Eight comprehensive immigration reform bill that included a pathway to citizenship, Cruz would not explicitly rule out a pathway to legal status for the undocumented.

That, plus his previous support for a huge increase in H1B visas, stymied him as he tried to launch an attack on Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), who was a co-author and major mover on the Gang of 8 immigration bill that passed the Senate overwhelmingly. On one level, Rubio" team is simply pointing out that if anti-immigration types want the real deal, Cruz is not the one. Rubio, of course, benefits if Cruz cannot capture the anti-immigration segment of the electorate to whom Donald Trump panders. On another level, however, what is at stake is a larger argument about Cruz's character. Essentially. the argument goes: He is not a hard-liner; he's an opportunist whose positions are no different, and in some cases worse, than those of other Republicans.

On immigration, for example, the entire anti-"amnesty" crusade is a canard unless, like Trump, you want to round people up and kick them out. Otherwise, you are exactly where other candidates are fix the border, reform legal immigration and then regularize the 11 million here. Cruz spends his time excoriating other Republicans for squishiness, but when you get down to it, he's exactly where they are” unwilling to undertake a massive, expensive, intrusive deportation program. In other words, he's not an anti-immigration extremist; he's just posturing as one.

What do we know about Rafael Eduardo Cruz? He was born in a foreign country.

He was admitted to Harvard only because of Affirmative Action Admissions Policies. He was given good grades by Liberal professors because of his race, even though his work was substandard. He has kept his college transcripts secret for reasons he will not admit. He has had a shameful Senate record, accomplishing nothing, not voting, not showing up for work. Very few from his 99 colleagues in Senate endorsed Cruz for president. These are the people he works with. Senator Sessions & Governor Palin saw right through phony Cruz, and endorsed Trump!

Cruz never had a real job in the private sector. He has been cashing government checks all his adult life.

Ewww! I agree with the author of this article, btw.

It’s easy now. Constitution scholar or not. Vote Trump or Hillary. kiss principle.

In thirteen words you have demonstrated exactly what is wrong with this country as it is today and has been since 2012.

I don't think any one man or woman can repair the Republic and save it for the future. To do that will require as a predicate.

That predicate must be Conservative Principles that are taken seriously and well understood. It will also require that those principles be shared by a large group of patriots. Not necessarily a numerical majority, but at least a sizeable group.

That group does not exist today.

Like a drug addled junkie or alcoholic, the bottom has to be reached before any possible repairs are possible. There is no way around this. There are no substitutes. Not even a Donald Trump.

Especially not a Donald trump.

He was a successful trial lawyer for about 5 years, before running for the Senate.

blah blah blah. go vote Hillary.

I will be voting for Gary Johnson.

Hillary thanks you.

I don’t think we can truly secure the border.

What we must and can secure, if we act fast, is most of our money and property.

What I propose is an immigration amnesty/ Constitutional amendment deal:

1. Dreamers, Anchor Baby parents, and five-year+ full taxpayers, with exceptions (felons, those ordered deported, those who arrived after 2008, etc.) would get:
no deportation of qualified persons for 90 days, plus three days for each state that has ratified all of the Constitutional amendments we want.

2. We would get Constitutional amendments that would:
A. cap income/property taxation
B. bar federal wealth/property taxation
C. require federal benefits/welfare to be paid from a capped flat rate income tax
to be levied and collected on at least 90% of all federally taxable income
(plus FICA/Medicare taxes for medical/retirement benefits for people over age 65 of up to 10% total, equally paid by employee/employer
plus self-employment taxes no higher on a total federal income taxation basis)
[no more selectively plucking the pockets of a minority to buy votes]
D. limit the types benefits/welfare that may be provided by the federal government
[if it isn’t potentially life-saving, it isn’t allowed]
E. limit federal regulation of employee compensation to that of a uniform national minimum wage
[no more buying votes at employer expense]
F. restrain the judicial branch

3. To retain the right to stay, an immigrant would have to:
A. apply within 12 months
B. agree to make a donation (to be non-dischargable by federal bankruptcy law) of 10% of their pre-tax income
to the Social Security Trust Fund for 19 years, starting in 2020, and then pay by estimated tax due dates
C. obtain high-quality health insurance coverage, meeting applicable US legal requirements, without government subsidy, except via a small employer/small employers under general law, within 12 months
D. maintain (thereafter), except for involuntary gaps caused by state-licensed insurer financial defaults, health insurance coverage, meeting applicable US legal requirements, without government subsidy, while the PPACA is on the books
E. pay all standard and expedited immigration fees within 18 months
F. pay a $2,000 amnesty service charge within 24 months
E. pay all US income tax amounts past due, get privately audited at their expense and then pass an IRS audit, all within 36 months
F. pay a one-time, $5,000, non-refundable fee, if they wish to drive a motor vehicle on a US highway, prior to doing so

An immigrant would lose the right to stay:
1. for failing to apply and pay in a timely manner
2. for failing to timely obtain/maintain high-quality health coverage, except for involuntary gaps, while the PPACA is on the books
3. for knowingly taking a government health insurance subsidy after 2106, if not from small business employment under general law
4. for unknowingly taking a government health insurance subsidy and not returning it within 90 days of demand
5. prior to full ratification by twenty states, working for more than $20 per week (plus room/board/estimated tax fully paid/federally untaxed/health care benefits), except pay from agricultural work on farms
6. in the period after full ratification of all the associated amendments by twenty states
a. working more hours in a week than the number of states that have ratified all the associated amendments
b. getting paid more than $6 per week/per state that has ratified all associated amendments (plus room/board/estimated tax fully paid/federally untaxable/health care benefits), except
A. pay from agricultural work on farms or
B. the excess amount/amounts over $50, donated to the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation within 10 days
C. or a smaller amount/amounts verifiably donated to a qualified federal tax deductible charity/charities within 10 days
7. getting paid more than $300/week gross, except as in (6), prior to full payment of all USCIS fees and past due federal income taxes and associated IRS charges
8. committing a felony

I will be voting for Gary Johnson.

Trump has exposed so many fake or duped conservatives out there. If you'd even bother to look, The Republican Party platform is one of the most conservative ever. That doesn't happen without the people AND Trump.

Go ahead and vote to surrender this country to the communists because so many had their pride hurt. For many, it was their own faults for paying attention to our liberal media/culture for their early narrative of Trump. Cruz picked up on it and ran with it too. Cruz turned out to be a huge liar and a fool. He duped so many as well.

For one, quit giving the liberal culture/media any credence for they are the enemy within but they've proved with the liberal narrative of Trump, that they are still a big influential force to be reckoned with. If we are to defeat the commies, we most definitely need to tune them out and NOT trust anything they put out.

Peace

He should have said “Be sure to go to the polls in November and vote to defeat Hillary Clinton.” It would mean voting for Trump, yet he would have not said “Vote for Trump.” What he said has left me wondering if he realizes the threat Hillary really is, not only for the country but for the world.

That is not in my control.

Unfortunately, there is no (none of the above) button. I have a full slate of down ballot interests, so I cannot duck the vote, but I also cannot vote a man who is in essence a Classic Liberal.

To me, it a choice of crap or more crap.

I’ll not be employing the required GOP pragmatism in this election which very possibly could be my last. Pragmatism has never, ever resulted in a win, much less a good result. This decision was made by me weeks prior to the primary.
