I see why you’re upset. But, saying Ted Cruz doesn’t understand the constitution when he has shown he does and put himself out there just doesn’t make sense to me. But I see that you’re more inclined to blame and tell others that nobody understands constitution as you do, rather than offering a real solution beyond repeating the same thing. Again, simce the Scotus already decided 0bamacare is constitutional and it depends on Congress—which as for now doesn’t want to act, what other venue that Cruz or other can go?

With all due respet to Sen. Cruz, how many times could Cruz have read the historical material concerning no federal authority to regulate public healthcare that I referenced in my previous post during his recent hours-long filibuster? And if he had some time to spare (ahem), he could have thrown in James Madison's Federalist No. 58.

In Federalist No. 58 Madison had noted that the Founding States uniquely gave the HoR the power of the purse as a tool to prevent federal government abuse of power as has happened with Obamacare.

In fact, House RINOs at least read the Constitution aloud after they regained majority control of the House in the 2010 elections.

Harvard Law School-indoctrinated graduate Cruz instead makes his big splash by reading Green Eggs and Ham. If he had read the Constitution-related materials on the other hand, it might have been his daughter's first exposure to the idea of the federal government's constitutionally limited powers. (Are we having fun yet?)

Note that I will support Cruz for president if Obama guard dog Fx News selects Cruz as Republican nominee for president. (Yes, I know that's not how the process is supposed to work, but ...)
