Something Hillary, Jebbie or Milt would've never have thought to do. Now there are hundreds of stories about it. If you knew **nothing** else about Ted Cruz, how would this make you feel about him?

It would make me feel that he is one of us, not one of the patricians.

What trial attorney wouldn’t want Ted Cruz on the jury. LOL!

Cruz ultimately was not chosen as a juror, and was dismissed in the late afternoon.

That's OK, he did his civic duty, didn't pull rank. You gotta respect the guy.

The judge will toss him off the jury for being too dominant a personality.

Personally, I was involved in a civil lawsuit and Anita Hill was in the jury pool. The judge excused her without even exposing her to voir dire.

He really cares about America; and sees jury duty as part of being a citizen.

Leadership by example always works and gains the respect of all.

Lawyers are never put on juries.

Cruz is a class act in every way.

When I was excused from jury duty a couple years ago, it wasn’t because I was a lawyer or had gone to law school with the prosecutor.

During voir dire it was discovered I’d had lunch with defense counsel’s father the prior week. Apparently the father works as a paralegal for his son’s firm.

Despite millions living in the DFW metroplex, it’s a small world.

Not all lawyers are challenged. I know a divorce attorney who ended up as a jury foreman on a murder trial.

I applaud Ted Cruz for serving on a jury, now let’s hope it’s not a black being judged and found guilty.

The media propaganda machine would have a field day.

I’d strike him from the panel.
