And some here don't like Rand Paul either...
Another Mormon.....groan.
But in all honesty, I’d vote for this one. Lee’s a good man.
Lee? Is that some sort of Oriental name?
Is he a Mormon? Not that there is anything wrong with that...
I wouldn’t count on it. I’ve seen it said that Michele Bachmann was ineligible due to an honorary Swiss citizenship. I’ve also seen some bizarre formula that says Rick Santorum was ineligible due to his grandfather’s neighbor’s second cousin being Italian.....or something.
Any coniption fits are being done by pie in the sky idealists who have no real clue. Since candidate X does not meet their perfect ideal - they will stay home.
I would support Rand. I like Mike Lee but he’s not polished enough. We need an articulate fighter like Cruz or Paul.
I think Cruz has given every indication that he’s running.
What about Perry, but this time NOT on pain medication?
I believe they also trace back to the same branch of the Lee family tree of Virginia as Robert E. and Henry "Lighthorse Harry" who signed the declaration of independence.
Not that that alone makes him a strict constitutional constructionist, but it certainly makes him a little more trustworthy than the spawn of Marxists and slave traders.
After reading the comments I truly believe FreeRepublic has been infiltrated by liberals.
Are you going to let the media choose your candidates again? Hate Cruz, Mormans, Bachman, Palin, Paul, and Lee?
Anyone of them would have made a better president than Obama. Keep eating your own and see where that gets you.
I get it. Hate Cristie, McCain, Graham they deserve it but there is no candidate that will please everyone.
Free Republic used to be a great place for educational debate. Now it’s a hate fest.
Cruz can run. Don’t listen to the idiots.
Birthers can stomp their feet all they want, should Senator Cruz toss his hat into the ring, he will face no serious legal obsticals in regards to his eligibility.
How fast do you think the Liberal-Socialists will link his name with the Mountain Meadow Massacre—whether or not John D. Lee was an ancestor? I can just hear Elinor Clift—wasn’t she killed in the movie Independence Day—say, “Well, now I don’t want to give undue emphasis to something that happened a hundred-fifty years or so ago, but is he related to the John D. Lee who was executed for the Mountain Meadow Massacre?”
What have we been praying for except someone like Mike Lee to arrive on the scene?
Politicians from every point on the political spectrum, including Democratic leaders Harry Reid and Barack Obama, have been proclaiming that ObamaCare is a train wreck waiting to happen. Yet only Mike Lee has had the courage to come forward and propose a bill to defund it so the train can be stopped before everyone is injured.
Mike Lee — a lonely, set-upon profile in courage who refuses to back down. Mike Lee for president.
