Again, are you serious?

You're pro life?

Is there a candidate on the scene who is more pro life than Ted Cruz?

You honestly think the Supreme Court should decide this issue?

The 20th Amendment apparently gives that sole power to the electoral college and Congress and only after the electors are sent to the electoral college.

Where in the Constitution does it say that someone who might not be "eligible" or "qualified" is not entitled to run.

In fact, the 20th Amendment assumes that someone who is not qualified can make it all the way to the electoral college and become the president elect.

So the courts would have no Constitutional authority to even make a decision as to whether or not Cruz is qualified.

So who, in your mind should decide this issue?

The same court that has ruled that Abortion is a fundamental constitutional right as enshrined in the founders intent as any of the enumerated rights?

The same court that ruled that Homosexual marriage is a sacrosanct Constitutional right?

Again. Are you serious?

You make a persuasive argument..and I must agree with everything you said. My point is, and I posted this the other day, that congress will not come to Ted’s rescue, his only hope is an interpretation from SCOTUS.
The underlying issue working against Cruz is his jinking and jiving. Why did he seal his US documents, and why not release them? His integrity is in question, not a good sign..

Eldridge Cleaver was taken off the ballot in 1968 - he was running for president. Was that removal unconstitutional?
