"I am a Cruz guy but he is incorrect here. Voters in America can discriminate based pon race, sex, religion, gender, transgender or eye color and nothing in the Constitution prevents them from doing so."

Cruz did not say that you can't vote against someone because of his/her religion. He said that there can be no LAWS prohibiting people of a certain faith from running for office. Don't you understand that there are a lot of libs who would try to ban CHRISTIANS from running for public office?

He us commenting on what he thinks Ben Carson said. Ben Carson said not one damn thing about government preventing Muslims from running for anything. So the premise of Cruz’ answer does not exist.

Why is this so hard?
