I wish I was trying to be humorous in that post, Rita, but things are starting to add up in such a way that is showing Cruz to be either incompetent or a manipulator.
And I know he’s not incompetent.
This really bothers me.
I hope he is not trying to pull people’s legs and then do things slyly like vote for the Corker Bill, and then say oh i voted for it because it ensures we will have a vigorous debate on the Iran deal, or that amendment to the gang of 8 bill, which supposedly was a poison pill, but now there is an add of him saying he supports comprehensive immigration reform and people coming out of the shadows.
And often time the explanation is oh my staff didn’t tell me this, or someone else told me that or whatever else.
This is starting to stack up to someone who doesn’t shoot straight, and it’s pissing me off, I have to say.
Don’t lose faith in Cruz. And I’m not saying you should support him.
Cruz is making a few tactical mistakes likely due to inadequate campaign support. Also, the entirety of Washington DC is against him, and not to ignore the impact of his formidable Primary opponent, Trump.
I have more political respect for Cruz than Trump. But both are brilliant and better articulate our expectations than any other GOP candidate demanding our support for POTUS.

Trump and/or Cruz 2016
Oh, I hear you, and he is on the verge of endlessly pointing-over-there, one too many times. The other guy’s fault excuse has a very short shelf life, when over used. Look at Hillary, for proof of that.
If I ever had the aspiration of running for president and I knew there could be reservations about my eligibility, I would get that cleared up with the Court before I filed my first form.
This is especially the case when running as the “Constitutional standard-bearer.” You would not want to offend the Constitution by running for an office you are ineligible for.
I think Cruz’ campaign is dishonest to the core.
