BREAKING: Sen. Ted Cruz to announce presidential bid Monday, report says

Link incoming.

I like him so far from what I've seen. Although I prefer Walker, I think Cruz would be a viable option.

 

[edporch]

I would certainly vote for Ted and I won't vote for Jebby.

Additionally, Cruz IS a natural born US Citizen, and eligible to run for President.

Though he was born in Canada, his mother was a US Citizen, AND she fulfilled the requirement of having lived in the USA for 10 years, 5 of which were after the age of 14.
(Ironically, a requirement that Obama's mother DIDN'T meet)

Though Ted Cruz also was born with Canadian citizenship, he renounced it last year.

 

[Jomibe]

Republicans are too unimaginative to nominate Ted Cruz. They'll put up Jeb or some other stooge. Same ****, different year.

 

[Leadeye]

RNC has spoken already, all others need not apply.

 

[MisterChester]

Did he forget he was born in Canada? I want to see his long-form birth certificate.

Let him announce. I don't think he stands much of a chance in the general election. The day of the dinosaur conservative is done. The dems will roll out everything and get everyone onboard to vote against a Cruz candidacy. There are better republican candidates to come, he ain't it. And Cruz should be ineligible by conservative standards that we've been hearing for the last 6 years. He's undeniably a Canadian.

 

[spec4]

Yeah, the press will be all over the Canada thing. I like the guy but believe the left would really do a number on demonizing him. Would be great to see him on the ticket as VP with Walker as Pres.

 

[Twangbanger]

He may be a Canadian by birth. But Canuck politicians in America still need to build donor lists for future reference, same as American ones.

Anybody announcing between here and 2016, other than Hillary, is doing exactly that. Nothing else.

You libs want to talk about dinosaurs then nominate Hillary, that makes total sense.

I thought he was born in Canada to American parents, or at least one. Besides, Obama has proven that even a foreigner can become the POTUS.

 

[D-Ric902]

I bet he will be carrying a copy of his birth certificate.
everytime it is brought up he will pull it out and say "it's right here"

 

[mrjarrell]

You libs want to talk about dinosaurs then nominate Hillary, that makes total sense.

Why would libertarians of any stripe want Hillary? Waste your vote on Cruz, he's a sure way to motivate dems to get out the vote.

I thought he was born in Canada to American parents, or at least one. Besides, Obama has proven that even a foreigner can become the POTUS.

Up until last year he held dual citizenship. I don't even recall hearing if he ever actually got that cleared up. Hell, at least Obama was born in the states.

That's about Obama's only claim to being American. Since then, meh.

Yeah, he renounced it last year.

 

[bwframe]

I think this is great. Hopefully Cruz will start dictating the dialog as opposed to us answering that of the libs. Obamacare, immigration, overreaching gov't, transparency instead of silly bullet bans, climate change and race.

I believe Walker is our man. Ted won't make it to president, yet anyway. He might end up making a good VP or cabinet position though.

 

[ArcadiaGP]

apparently the announcement is midnight tonight?

Waiting until old gramma Clinton is in bed. I like it.

Edit: Maybe I'm wrong about the timing. A lot of people hyped up waiting for midnight for some reason.

Ah, yep, Midnight. https://twitter.com/tedcruz/status/579795962173878272

Hell, I think even Charles Manson would be a better option than the anti-American, terrorist sympathizing, terrorist supporting Liar-In-Chief the U.S. has now.
