Cruz’s Big Chance to Turn Tables on Trump (MSM is key)

They hate Cruz more because he’s an intelligent, philosophical, movement conservative. Trump, they realize, is a demagogue without long term or sincere commitment to anything besides his own vanity. The Left can relate to him; he’s just as likely to return to his Democrat/crony roots as he is to pushback Liberalism in any way. With Cruz, they’re fighting what they call an “ideologue.” With Trump, they’re fighting a guy keen to prove he can make deals good for him with them. He could make a lot more money as president, and that’s likely a big motive for a man of avarice. With Trump, the government will get much, much bigger.

Cruz needs a voice coach asap. That nasally whine is a little too high-pitched.

He sounds like he has a cleft pallet.

Big Lie. Cruz is not eligible. He did not have two American parents.Vattel is the authority. the so called experts are lying.

Trump has alienated conservatives, I would rather vote for Clinton than Trump if forced at this point.

[Gene Eric]

The MSM is the Country’s greatest threat. Not interested in its instrumentation.

I’m starting to understand why most everyone never pursued Obama’s eligibility for all of those years. Think about it...

In your dreams!
The LAME STREAM MEDIA is all but DEAD, and so are the "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS" ! Trump is having real problems with the "FOR PRIVATE USE" part of his LOVE of "EMINENT DOMAIN" !

Donald Trump and Eminent Domain, August 22nd, 2015

... More, Trump has publicly defended the confiscation of private property for eminent domain, even when the use for which the property is confiscated is purely private in nature:

Trump consistently defended the use of eminent domain.
Interviewed by John Stossel on ABC News, he said:
"Cities have the right to condemn for the good of the city.
Everybody coming into Atlantic City sees this terrible house instead of staring at beautiful fountains and beautiful other things that would be good."
Challenged by Stossel, he said
that eminent domain was necessary to build schools and roads.
But of course he just wanted to build a limousine parking lot.

Once again, this is Donald Trump's vision of private property rights when he was just another private citizen.
Imagine how much more damage he could do as the leader of the Federal executive branch.

There isn’t anything either of them can do, say or be accused of falsely that could disuade me from supporting either one. These are the only two people I trust to deal with the problems facing our nation. They may not be perfect but they are light years ahead of the riff raff running against them.

“Cruz: Well, that reminds me of something I once told my daughter on one of those warm Texas nights - right after I had to spank her for lying about her pretend friend - when even a cold drink won’t exactly parch a dry mouth anymore than our founding fathers tried to in developing a constitutional...

The Republic is crumbling. The enemy needs but one final charge to snuff out the flickering flame of freedom. To bring us all darkness, for all time. You say to the man in the foxhole with you,
“Give me the Holy Hand Grenade!”
Leto replies,”No thou shant use this one, for it is not holy enough!”
“What does that matter? They are coming, hand me The Holy Hand Grenade of Manhattan! Now!”
Leto,”No, it is a far better thing for all of us to be imprisoned, tortured, and hopefully die rather than using a weapon that is not holy enough!”

The specter of Hitlerys walking dead can be seen slogging their way closer and closer, in exasperation, you train your side arm at forehead of Leto and say,”Hand me the Holy Hand Grenade of Manhattan...NOW!”
Jeb intervenes and says, “Umm, er, I can fix it! I will crawl back to camp and get the Holy Hand Grenade of Ambien. You guys stay here, I will be back. I am going to fix this.” He then falls asleep.

Ted Cruz says in a direct and articulated manner, with a strained face of constipation,
“Halt! You can not shoot a conscript for refusing an order. The last such instance was one Eddie Slovak, who in 1945 was found guilty of desertion.The case was adjudicated on Nov 11 by nine staff officers of the 28th Division, none of whom had yet been in battle. One of those judges, Benedict B. Kimmelman, wrote a stark and intriguing account of his role in the story of Pvt Slovik, capturing the scene thusly:
Five witnesses were heard. The cross-examinations were perfunctory. The defense made no closing argument. The court recessed for ten minutes, resumed, and retired almost immediately afterward...”

With time running out you pull the trigger, grab the Holy Hand Grenade of Manhattan, and that is when Huckabee starts his incantation:”Then did he raise on high the Holy Hand Grenade of Manhattan, saying, “Bless this, O Lord, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy.”

While Rubio is enlisting illegals,Christie is complaining about the lack of rations and Paul is rolling a joint, Fiorina is busy selling company ordinance for half the cost and Kaisch is waving a white flag. You toss the Holy Hand Grenade of Manhattan and count,”One, Two, Five!”

With great aplomb,the weapon detonates causing the most beautiful, grand explosion ever seen, it was such a wonderful and great explosion that you will never remember or want to see any other explosion. It was a yuuuge explosion with the loudest of loud booms ever that boomed!
You look out of the fox hole, and they were all gone. And you say, ‘We win, they lose.

Or ... Cruz could respond by signalling that he is continuing his campaign "in good faith" that he eligible for POTUS based on contemporary events and that his bonds to citizenship are equally strong, if not stronger, than Obama's. But that he will also pursue judicial review from the Supreme Court on the matter once seated as POTUS such that clarity to the term "natural born citizen" can be documented once and for all. Should he be found ineligible, then Chester Arthur will have been the first ineligible POTUS, Barack Obama the second, and he Ted Cruz would be the last.

A little intellectual honesty with the public is all it would take. This would appease the birthers. It would point the damaging spotlight on Obama to assuage democrat attacks. It would set the Supreme Court at ease knowing they have cover to continue ducking the issue for the next election cycle. It's easy and winnable all the way around. Cruz can be seated as POTUS if he plays his cards right.

Longer term thinking, however, I want Cruz at some point to "retire" to a Supreme Court appointment. It's going to be challenging to get him ratified if he doesn't get in front of this eight-ball now. He does not want to be remembered as the guy who lacks Constitutional understand of citizenship. He has to own his status and signal his intentions and keep it all 100% above board and Constitutional.
