Only real problem I have had with Cruz so far is how he has handled the New York values situation, though I will also say that I am been recently concerned with the issue of his eligibility, even though I personally do think he’s eligible. I don’t think he has handled that too well either.
But to be perfectly honest, since the last debate, Cruz supporters on this forum have behaved in such a way that has completely turned me off to Cruz. I don’t want to support their candidate, I don’t want to assist or help them in any way, their behavior have been atrocious.
And that’s it. Action-consequence. They damaged their candidate by at least one vote.
He may have had a point about NY, but why he would put a city or state down like that in a public setting, a televised debate, is beyond me. It was just so dumb. For the last 7 years we've had a president who hasn't even tried to pretend he's a president for all the people. I was just a little stunned that Cruz said what he did.
Chris. I feel exactly the same way only in reverse. Odd because I know you are a good conservative, I have read your stuff for years. My view is that New York values are not my values even though I was born and raised in NYC. Trumps attacks on Cruz citizenship eligibility are part of politics bu the insistence of Trump folks that some Swiss philosophers writings are dis-positive of American citizenship when the same folks railed against the SCOTUS citing foreign law in their holdings has alienated me the same way you have been alienated.
At any rate, your vote is yours and yours alone and you owe nobody anything.
