Ted Cruz made it official shortly after midnight Sunday evening/monday morning by twittering his intention to seek his parties(Republican Party or Tea party,not specified....lol) nomination for the lands highest office.

Being first in entitles him to being first out,doesn't it ?

Opinions....does anyone really think a Cruz presidency is a good idea or something worth working towards ?

Lastly,am I the only person that looks at Cruz and see's a physical resemblance to Tailgunner Joe...that wonderful Senator from days gone by from the great state of Minnisota IIRC.....Joe McCarthy

He will be memed with Benedict Arnold. He is a violator of the Logan Act. Dead on Arrival.

why arent they complaining about him not being born in the US????
oh its different for them, hes got it sorted.....legally
or has he
The guy is a foreign policy idiot and as for NASA, he has less credibility than spongebob.
I like what jerry brown has said about cruz being completely unfit :)
Ive been thinking it, since he crawled out of the snake pit. Nothing Ive seen has made me see anything different.
He is nutty enough for the TP, their base will love him
If they can focus on anything but emailgate.

On facebook, there is a picture of Obama holding up a sign, saying Ok, Cruz lets see the birth certificate.

Probably photoshopped, but funny.

Oh I feel for my grand old party... why oh why can they not find someone to run that is not a radical ass. Believe me it will not take much to beat Hillary...but he is not much enough.

Ja, Hillary is no shoe in, but they are incapable of running an acceptable candidate.

I am Gobsmacked. No one could have seen that announcement coming.

I am not so sure that we rotate people like canned foods. Otherwise Hillary would be long gone ~ look how old she is!

So. . . I had to go pull up pics of both Ted and Joe and going off the bio pics on wiki, yes they do look alike. They both have that lip thing going on, although Joe had a helluva widow's peak.

As far as Ted's eligibility goes, he will probably have to go for a court ruling like John McCain on his citizenship. But I think the current consensus in legal opinion is that he is a "natural born citizen."

Tailgunner was not from Minnesota, he was a Wisconsin cheesehead. LOL. As you well know, Mike.

right now in the foursome of ted cruz, scott walker, bobby Jindal and rand paul, ted cruz is probably my favorite.

exactly how he is a "radical" is beyond me. god forbid we should have less taxes, small government, fiscal responsibility and attention to the constitution.

here is what the cato institute says about his eligibility:

Yeah, that is what I understood Ted Cruz to indicate by his violation of the Logan act. He isn't much for constitutional stuff either.

Everyone is 'for' lower taxes, the question is somewhat ameliorated by the reality of whether or not that is fiscally responsible. A condition Cruz is wholly unaware of.

Perhaps if he is for 'small' government, he could begin the accomplishment of that laudable goal by removing himself from it, cuz he's assholes and elbows into it now, and has been.

At least the Republican's will have a primary. The Democrat's on the other hand seem hell bent on supporting the old hag Hillary and all of the baggage she will bring along. Should be a fun election.

Huh. I would have said that the Democrats are in the process of throwing her under the bus.

When you have someone that can not only beat down every Republican/Tea Party contender hands down with a 10 point lead (as per the recent CNN poll), why not run her. The Republican clown car should provide amusement for a third straight election. Not to worry, we'll get to see it twice more, before Republicans have a serious chance at the White House.
