However, the more traditional and more judicious approach is to be found in the intent of the drafters as modified under the umbrella of the Natural Law, which is the underlying basis of the drafting of the Constitution.

But the originalist meaning is all natural law. And that is what Ted Cruz is all about.

Perhaps Cruz is about that interpretation umbrelled by the Natural law OR the interpretation Tribe attributes to him that the exact meaning of the words confines it.

Cruz seems enthusiatic about rights e.g. free markets and free trade et. al. But not so vocal about duties which accompany rights such supporting fair trade and fair markets which are elements of the entire of the Natural Law.

Our founding Fathers emphasized rights, but did not disbelieve or completely ignore duties. Subsequent jurists gradually tended to ignore the duty aspect of the natural law. Thus we have the right to have sexual activity any way one feels like it without any duty to rein in ones activitie for the physical, social and psychological good of self and community.
