Who is a dumb ass like Obama?

Cruz is a freshman senator with no executive experience - actually his resume is very similar to Obama on paper - although his career as a lawyer is far more significant than Obama’s.

TED CRUZ: Dana, I think there are two sharp distinctions between where I am today and where Barack Obama was when he launched his campaign. Number one, in his time in the senate he had basically been a back bencher. He had not been leading on any issues. In my time in the Senate you can accuse me of being a lot of things but a back bencher is not one of them.

DANA BASH: That may be true, but the big criticism of President Obama especially as the years have gone on is he didn’t have any experience in an executive function, he didn’t run any organization and the same can be said about you. What experience do you have to be commander in chief of the United States military, for example?
From March:

TED CRUZ: Well, unlike Barack Obama, I was not a community organizer before I was elected to the senate. I spent 5 1/2 years as the solicitor general of Texas, the chief lawyer for Texas in front of the U.S. Supreme Court. I supervised and led every year before the state of Texas in a 4,000 agency with over 700 lawyers.

Over the course of 5 1/2 years over and over again Texas led the nation defending conservative principles and winning.

Ted Cruz, as Solicitor General of Texas, led the office of 4,000 employees, including 700 lawyers.

During private practice at Morgan Lewis, Ted Cruz built their appellate practice to be one of the top 20 law firms on National Law Journal's "Appellate Hot List" in 2010.

Since every U.S. President has to take the oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, is your guy going to follow the constitution? Or, is he going to use executive orders, just like Obama?
