Really, John? Explain Eisenhower, JFK, Grant and Lincoln, then.

Is this the meme they've decided to run with?

What difference does it make? B.Obama can’t.

He’s gotta stop playing defense on this issue. The longer he does, the worse it gets. Offense, Ted. Offense. Don’t fall for the ignorant BS, and QUIT PLAYING DEFENSE. It’s a losing proposition in politics.

John Dickerson, you dunderhead! You say:
“Over five and a half years as solicitor general, Cruz led a large agency with hundreds of lawyers. Obama never ran an equally complex organization.”

Would you please explain to us what “executive experience” is, if it is not running a complex organization????

Funny how liberal hacks only ask this crap about conservative Republicans with strong beliefs.

What about Reid, Schumer, Murray, Feinstein, Wasserman, Barney Frank, Bloomberg, the democrat racist in Iowa/Kansas who said he wants to kill white cops, etc?

What bullcrap.

Rather hard for you to convince me that commanding generals lack executive experience. I can accept the JFK and Lincoln examples.

Though Cruz did make a valid case that he was the executive for a large state agency. Obama never ran so much as a paper route.

The libs seem very interested in preventing Cruz from being the GOP nominee. I’m sure that the only reason for this is that they want to help the Republican Party be stronger and more competitive as time goes by. /sarc

His Senate colleagues would agree that he’s no community organizer. He is known more for the disorder he creates in his community.

Glib and stupid.

"Community organizing" is about creating disorder in the community.

Also as Obama proved once in office, there are limits to the power of stirring the grassroots to achieve executive rather than political goals. Plus, the idea that a candidate skilled at focusing grassroots passion could change the entire shape of government is an argument for community organizing. Cruz may be good at it, but he says he’s not.

It's hard to fathom what he means by "executive rather than political goals" or what that has to do with either Cruz or Obama. And the last sentence is also glib and obtuse. If Dickerson thinks what Ted Cruz has done is similar to Obama's "community organizing" that should be his point, not what Cruz says about Obama's "community organizing."

A lack of executive experience cannot be overcome by simply not having the attributes of the last president who also lacked it.

Interesting that they would admit to Obama’s lack of
experience...

I don’t think Cruz is necessarily interested in “playing”. Not Washington’s game anyway.

I have seen the results of very experienced politicians. They wrecked the Nation. I view a total lack of government experience as a good thing. As did the Founding Fathers of this Nation.

I have seen what Harvard and Yale educated presidents have done to the Nation. They trashed it. I look at a lack of a college degree as a good thing (Governor Walker). I choose to give Senator Cruz a pass on being a Harvard guy. He gets everything else right.

In fact, every criticism of Cruz upchuked by the lamestream media is a reason to vote for Senator Cruz. We should let the authorized journalists know. The more they bash him, the better we like him.

"Here's my strategy on the Cold War: We win, they lose." - Ronald Reagan

Ted should paraphrase this as his campaign strategy statement.

I don’t want someone who plays well with the uni-party crony mob in DC.

playing well with others would hardly seem a likely issue for Slate or other left-wing media to raise....after 6 solid years of Obama/Pelosi/Reid not playing AT ALL with anybody outside their little IslamoNazi/Communist Party cellblock.

Obama's idea of playing well with others:

"I won."

And wasn't there some other comment about sending Republicans to the back of the bus?

The present WH didn’t have McConnell’s phone number and had to scramble after Nov, 2014’s election. Tell me how the Left plays ‘with’ others again.

Leftist want me dead. They've made that perfectly clear. I don't want a candidate who can play nice with them. That's why we now have blacks attacking non-blacks with impunity and Sodomites gearing up to throw all Christians in jail. It's time for conservatives to “stand up and demand their liberty!”

Gotta believe Cruz would have a better time with congress than obozo does.
They may kiss his half breed ass but they hate his guts.
