Wow... you can quote a list....read it last year as well as the briefs behind the list....
He’s a great lawyer...very accomplished in the law.....his job as Solicitor general for Texas was to defend the constitution in front of the US Supreme Court..

And that’s it... story ends there....

Pathetic resume for President of the USA...

I’ll take point #8 from your Ted Cruz Bio: 2008-2012 - Attorney with Morgan, Lewis & Bockius in Houston, Texas.

“Cruz is a partner at a high-powered law firm with a history of contributing 100’s of thousands of dollars to Democrats such as the Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Democratic National Congressional Committee’s campaigns.

Ted Cruz was hired as a partner Morgan Lewis & Bockius in 2008, during the presidential election in which Barack Obama became president. Morgan Lewis & Bockius made contributions totaling over $200,000 in support of Obama’s campaigns for President, as well as $750,000 to Democrats since Cruz became a partner.

Ted Cruz essentially donated substantially to Obama & Democrats!!!!!
