Trump, Carson or Cruz?
The Morning Call ^ | October 30, 2015 | Bill White

Posted on 10/30/2015 3:29:28 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

I have a weird proposition for you today. Consider this Halloween-related.

If you had to choose between Donald Trump, Ben Carson and Ted Cruz as the next president, which one would you pick and why?

If you're a very conservative Republican, this may not be such a daunting prospect. If you're a moderate of either party or someone on the farther left, you're more likely to be appalled.

But in the wake of a debate in which Cruz emerged as an increasingly popular candidate in the crowded GOP field, and in which Trump and Carson remain the front-runners, I think it's a reasonable question. None of the Above is not an option in this case.....

I sure won’t be throwing away my vote on Ted Cruz.

Actually it will be the best vote I ever made in decades.

Because the US Constitution matters.

“It’s going to be a hard landing indeed”

-—That may very well be true, but I promise you that same hard landing will be even harder for Cruz/Carson - and quicker as they don’t have the money to fight a long drawn out battle like Trump. So, you should prepare yourself as well :-)

Any of the 2012 field—such as it was—would have been better than Obama. Fortunately, we have much better candidates in 2016, and I think it’s very likely that Trump, Carson, or Cruz will win the nomination, and I think Cruz or Trump can win the general, I’m not sure Carson can. There’s a long ways yet to go, all we have now are polls, the real test is who can get the votes.

So, if your Mama was on vacation in, oh, say, Europe when you came due, would you claim to be an American or a . . . whatever?

"1) Cruz. He’s a constitutionalist, and he’s serious about it."

Bull Cruz voted to reauthorize the unconstitutional Patriot Act which allows, in violation of the 4th amendment, warrantless searches and more. His support of TPA and TPP plus other secret trade deals proves Cruz is NOT a constitutionalist. Plus he refuses to say he would enforce existing law a deport illegals here in the USA, no deport mean amnesty. Amnesty means Marxist rule forever beginning in 2020.

But he has never signed on front of a paycheck. Never ran anything which made a nickel in profit. He needs to first apprentice under Trump.

It sounds to me like if Cruz imports 5 times the immigrants now entering, the immigration problem will be solved.

Yes that is Yasser Arafat daughter and she like Ted has an American mom. And there are thousands more like here in Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Saudi Arabia and now that all you need to run for president of the USA is an American mom, all of them can come here and run for POTUSA since all of them are Natural Born Citizens just like Ted.

Do you listen to the man? Do you have to dig ditches or run a Dairy Queen to qualify for President these days?

This boy kicks butt like nothing in the last 25 years.

Dude, the folks were naturalized and he is as ‘merican as apple pie.

No matter what you say, no matter that you hold your breath until you turn blue, Cruz is not a natural born citizen.

My daughter was born in the Azores, Portugal. But, she was born in an American Air Force Hospital and was given a Bom/Good diplomatic stamp on her brand new infant Passport from the United States Consulate in Ponta Delgada, São Miguel, Azores, Portugal with a US Diplomatic Corps Birth Certificate, as an American born on our US treaty base at Lajes Field.

It is just to bad that the Parents of Ted Cruz didn't return to the USA for his birth. The Constitution is very clear on this. Cruz cannot be President and it isn't rocket science.

The Cruz family was living in Canada and had applied for Canadian citizenship. Ted’s birth was not registered with the US embassy in Canada which is the protocol if one wishes the child to be a NBC even thou born abroad. Little Ted spend many years as a child in Canada, hardly a holiday.
