He has a pretty impressive resume. Here are some highlights:
He was the national debate champion in 1992 as an undergrad.
He was the primary editor of the Harvard Law Review in law school.
He clerked for William Rehnquist when he was Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.
He was on the staff that represented Bush before the Supreme Court in Bush v. Gore in 2000.
He was a long serving Solicitor General in Texas and has argued 9 times before the U.S. Supreme Court,
He drafted the amicus brief in District of Columbia v. Heller.
Heller?

Yes, with a resume like that, he would make a fine AG or SCOTUS Justice. But what has he lead? What tough decisions has he made? Has he negotiated deals of significant consequence? Has he worked the room and got people to do what he wants them to do? He is an excellent orator, waxes eloquently in terms of legal jurisprudence; law, administrative genius...is that Presidential material? Will he be able to force Congress to pass legislation they may not want to? Will he be able to stand up to the onslaught from a veto decision and stick to his convictions (think TPP).
Should have added a young collage aged Ted Cruz with his campaign brackets smoking a cigar.
