Will you vote for Ted Cruz if he is the nominee?
All delegates are bound to the candidate on the first ballot; no exceptions.
The purpose of that rule is to prevent deals from being made before the first ballot, in secret.

I would not bank on that.
You mean constantly lying donnie.
Because the elderly gentleman from NY with the orange spray tan and dyed yellow hair (and Vietnam deferments) is “all man”?
The establishment hacks are full of it.
Note the reference to Natural Law in the first sentence of our Declaration of Independence.
It is crystal clear that the Founding Fathers used the Natural Law definition of 'natural born Citizen' when they wrote Article II. By invoking "The Laws of Nature and Nature's God" the 56 signers of the Declaration incorporated a legal standard of freedom into the forms of government that would follow.
President John Quincy Adams, writing in 1839, looked back at the founding period and recognized the true meaning of the Declaration's reliance on the "Laws of Nature and of Nature's God." He observed that the American people's "charter was the Declaration of Independence. Their rights, the natural rights of mankind. Their government, such as should be instituted by the people, under the solemn mutual pledges of perpetual union, founded on the self-evident truth's proclaimed in the Declaration."

The Supreme Court of the United States has never applied the term “natural born citizen” to any other category than “those born in the country of parents who are citizens thereof”.

Harvard Law Review Article FAILS to Establish Ted Cruz as Natural Born Citizen
And Cruz is a full-flagged GOPe member who pretends to be an outsider, uses Dem dirty tricks, and lies whenever he thinks it’s opportune.
I’ll take Trump over the fake conservative anyday.
I have participated in a number of online polls, polls where I was visited at my home, polls in shopping centers and malls in my area, and phone polls.
I have participated only in polls where I could follow the results of the polls online. In all polls I participated in, Trump won.
Internet, TV, walk up polls by pollsters, probably more polls than have been available anytime in my lifetime.
I am so grateful that it did not happen. Personally he is positioned at the right place, the right time, and for the right reason, and I hope he is successful.
The GOPe need to be defeated. Our country was not founded by Lifetime politicians, but countrymen who fought and died, farmed the land, built businesses, conducted trade, and yes studied law, but they also did not know everything, so borrowed from the knowledge of others like Vattel, and from learned lessons from other nations.
They knew what to avoid from past experience, and did their part to serve the nation, then went back to their lives, and did not suck off the nation for the rest of their lives.
Yes, I am glad that Trump is running, and I hope he wins.

Cruz was the first candidate to declare.
He set out his political positions clearly in 2011.
Most of Trump’s positions are taken directly from Cruz.
.
Trumpfolx have disregarded the parable of the tortoise v. the hare. Their guy’s been jetting all over everyday since January not taking the nuts and bolts of a primary seriously and making unforced heinous mistakes. WALL WALL WALL has cocooned them into complacency in real race realpolitik.
