Ted Cruz for President ?

I really don't know much about him. But, he has suddenly become the face of the Republican Party . He and Rand Paul.

The only thing either need is for Obamacare to turn out to be as big a cluster as it has the potential to be.

It appears after all the talk only 11 1/2 million more are going to be insured. Everybody's cost is going up. Except for the employers that are dumping their insured.

Taxing medical devices. What a great way to get less of them.

So, the employees who get dumped and put on the exchange get to pay $300 to $400 a month. What a great deal.

Yeah, the right wing echo chamber sure has been ramping it up with a whole lotta horsecrap these past few days. Where did you hear those stats?

For starters....................

He was born in Canada and has the papers to prove it. Not that Rightwingers would care where a Presidential candidate was born.

I think it was MSNBC.

Seriously, I don't remember. I'm sure it was not the mainstream media.

Cruz has had his 15 minutes of fame and he will follow Bachmann and Palin into oblivion.

I didn't know that. If he was indeed born in Canada I would think he would be ineligible.

US mom, Cuban Dad, born in Canada with dual US Canada citizenship. I have no clue how all that mess works out, but if he is eligible then he should go for it.

I'm thinking Rand Pauls future is limited too. He's given the Dems far too much ammunition with his defense of bigotry as a constitutional right. Sometimes, even when you may be right, it might behoove you to keep your mouth shut.

There is no "if"...he recently said he'd renounce his Canadian citizenship. He may have even done it.

Interesting the hero's the reps pick...a Canadian/cuban......they love Nugent, a draft dodging pedophile....the list goes on and on......
