I don’t think it is a ridiculous litmus test to expect someone who pretends to be such an expert on the constitution to at least give lip service to the 2nd Amendment. But to TELL people they have NO CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT to bear arms in defense of any aggressive action by an illegal government is beyond the pale for anyone who aspires to be president.

Yup, if only Ted had billions like Trump, he wouldn't need to have donors and could claim to be free from outside influence and corruption. Then he might have a chance of making your ridiculous cut.

When was the last time Ted supported a democrat for office or donated to his/her campaign? Yeah, I can't remember either.

Yeah, heard that before. Control of the House, then control of the Senate has given absolutely NOTHING back to the American people! Too many LAWYERS practicing LAWFARE in Washington already.

In your utopian world, other governments are pursuing their trade agendas in good faith....

I mean, the drug cartels are just harmless “sellers’ right ?

No. I think “slammed” is the wrong word. Cruz “gently encouraged.” He didn’t “slam.”
...............................................
Yeah, I hear ya. Cruz “gently encouraged” the protesters to give up their Constitutional Rights under the false guise that they did not have that particular Constitutional Right to bear arms! Yeah, uh huh, I hear ya!

Ted supported the Democrats and gave them everything they wanted by his votes. He didn’t need to give money, he gave away America’s sovereignty!

Sorry- I was mistaken- I was going by an above post that made it appear he came out against the protestors- it was about trump supporting NSA surveillance not this issue however-

Cruz is right on this one, these morons need to leave ASAP before they are all dead or put in jail for life, and in the process hurt the conservative cause.

Heck, even the people they are supposedly there to help, dont want their help!

Agreed.

There's a high probability that this group has been infiltrated and actions being influenced by a FLEA. Don't be the buffalo.

An interesting trend. It seems that precious few candidates for president want to reduce the powers of the office. I guess St. Raphael of TPA doesn’t so much object to the floggings, so long as he and his gang are wielding a new and improved whip.

Yes. BLM (Bureau of Land Mismanagement) is occupying land all over the Western part of these United States, and needs to be abolished. Defund the Feral Government!

...and a few were would be tyrants and monarchists. They just wanted to be the ones in power. Alexander Hamilton being a great example.
