Cruz is quickly becoming my favorite guy in Washington. He’s got the skills to buck the party. Since he is born Canada, he can’t be President, but he can be a force for major change in the Senate.
I like Cruz so far, but let’s wait a while to see if he becomes just another scumbag politician in it for himself.
Seen it WAY too many times.
I also am paying attention to the good Senator from Texas. I also find a resemblance , facially to Sen. Joe McCarthy. Just an observation.
It doesn't matter where the President was born anymore. Oh! I forgot, Cruz is a Republican. Sorry...I lost my head for a minute.
I approve of what Cruz has done except for protecting filibusters. I want to get rid of filibusters altogether.
There are a number of reasons, but in the long run it means that past legislative errors can be easily fixed by a new legislature.
IOW, ObamaCare could be ended with simple majorities in Senate and House and having the presidency.
Can one side do mischief if they have the 3 branches. Sure. But it can be undone. As it stands now, the Senate can block anything.
The way to show leadership is to convince others of your beliefs. He has not done that because everything he voted against ended up passing. When he can sway the Republican party to his ideals then I will be impressed until then he is having a pretty easy time.
“Since he is born Canada, he can’t be President”
Personally I agree with you but if they try to run Rubio who is also not eligible due to the fact that neither of his parents were US citizens at the time of his birth then all bets are off.
