By making Congress a part of the agreement process, their rejection or non approval of the deal then allows the next President to nullify the terms of the deal. Without Congressional approval the Iran deal is not binding beyond Obama’s term.

By definition, the corker bill gives the Iran deal Congressional backing. Your contention that it is not binding is debatable and given the current make-up of the Judicial branch of government not likely:

What It sounds like is your position is that after obumber removes the sanctions, releases $150B and allows Iran to buy all the advance weapons available in the world, Cruz is going to put that geni back in the bottle after his inevitable election to POTUS? That is a pretty big friking gamble considering if the corker bill was not passed, the Iran deal would not have Congressional backing, nor any legitimacy. The corker bill makes lifting the sanctions and releasing $150b legal and a done deal. Where as otherwise it would have been illegal. Did I miss any facts here?

Well that is good news, please provide a source. Then I can finally support Cruz and not have to worry that he sold us out for a few campaign $. I'm betting you can't, but I have been wrong before. I'd love to find out I am wrong on this.
