I guess we are doomed to elect humans to office, and all humans have frailties, foibles and histories we may not like.
I’m looking at this election as a last chance to avoid the fundamental transformation of this country from a representative republic to an oligarchy of big government perpetuated by big donors.
For me, it’s a question of who is best positioned and inclined to stop it. Right now, for me, that’s Trump.
Cruz is a close second, but his reliance on big donors and his votes on a couple of key issues are troublesome. If he really is set to take on the current Uniparty power structure, I fear that his Canadian birth will be enough for the Supreme Court to nullify him.
For those that don’t think the court would interpret the law in such a way as to do this, I guess that if recent decisions the court has made won’t give you pause, nothing will.
I agree completely with what you say.
