I don't think Obama or Biden ever made people attend their political events.
The irony is Libertarians force people to attend political events! (I wonder who else in history forced people to attend political speeches.
Uh..... Obama had to have supporters bused in to many events.
Liberty University is not a Libertarian university.

Will he resign on Day 2 of his Presidency? It would be the only logical thing for him to do.
It would be helpful if you understood any of Cruz's positions and didn't do this far left, comic book version of his positions.
To my understanding Sen. Cruz believes the federal government should do those tasks assigned to it by the U.S. Constitution and leave the rest to the states, as was the intent of the Founders and the purpose of the Constitution.

No, it is an example of the American education system that tells us things like spelling are not important, but what is important is the communication of the idea. Did you understand the poster's point? Then you should be celebrating the achievements of the modern American education system.

Sen. Cruz favors a fair, flat and consistent tax code. Liberals like a tax code to be punishment and provide motivations to earn and invest less.

He chose Liberty University because five years ago today LU filed a lawsuit over the provisions of Obamacare that they feel violated their religious freedom protected by the 1st Amendment.

No Cruz was busy clerking for the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, clerking for a Court of Appeals judge, being an Associate Deputy Attorney General of the U.S., the Director of Policy Planning at the FTC, Solicitor General of Texas and then a partner at Morgan, Lewis & Bockius to be in one of the most corrupt legislatures in the U.S.

David Duke was a Democrat. He became a Republican because there were so few of them in LA that he thought he had a better chance to winning a primary. The Republicans denounced David Duke down the line and went so far as withdrawing their endorsed candidate so the Democrat Johnston could win the election and not have to go to a runoff.
The Democrats by way of contrast never disowned or criticized KKK Exalted Cyclops Robert Byrd of West Virginia. In fact they lauded him at every opportunity.

Lets face it, a Tea Party candidate is a long reach, since the GOP doesn't have that many people that want Teas anywhere near their Campaigns because of their extremist attitudes, and their reputation as idiots. Having the support of the Tea Party, is like having Ebola in Politics. No one wants to be around you for fear of having an association made.
What are the extremist policies of the tea party movement?

Great Post! I am sure Wrecking ball is tucked in the fetal position trying to think of a way to defend Obama , while trying to figure out how to call someone a Birther!
Very Good Post and he has actually took Republicans to court as well as Dem. Your points emboldens why some Dem and Rep do not like him. He is not a establishment candidate.
You are exactly wrong. Cruz has quite a lot more experience than Obama, and unlike Obama, Ted Cruz actually IS a constitutional scholar, as he has presented before the Supreme Court and taught law classes about Supreme Court Litigation.
There is a lot more. Ted Cruz's academic background is stellar, far superior to Barack Obama. If someone else wants to post something on that, I will leave you to it.
Ted Cruz truly has one of the most elite legal backgrounds in the United States of America. That is not an exaggeration. It is a fact. And one that Barack Obama himself knows he cannot hold a candle to. The same comparison also applies to Hillary Clinton as well.
Cruz may have a paper trail background, but has he ever really done anything useful? Seems to me all he is , is a Professional "Student" and Bull artist, like any other person living off Government pay. If he is all that great, how come he isn't already the President? Couldn't beat Romney? Or McCain? And you can't say he has "More Experience" than Obama at all. Obama "IS" the President and was the President for the last two terms. What has Cruz done? Talk about it?
I will have to go along with you on one point. Cruz has done something Obama never has done. And that's SHUT DOWN the Government at the Cost of 3 Billion dollars to Taxpayers. Obama has never done that, so Cruz is ahead of him there. Also, Obama has brought this Country back from an Economic Catastrophe , brought down unemployment, brought consumer confidence back, eliminated more Terrorists than any other President, Passed a Health Care Act, and much more. Cruz can only dream about those things.
Seems to me Obama is holding all the "Candles" you say he can not hold. At the end of this term, he will have a background as President of the United States of America for 8, that's 8, years. Something else Cruz can Dream about. Did I say 8, that's 8 years?
If we believed you, we would have to say it was Cruz who brought down the Commandments from the Mountain, and he is the one who will save the World, when in fact, all he brought down was the Republican Party popularity index.
Talk is cheap. Cruz talks the talk, but Obama is walking the walk, and has walked it for 7 years. Find something even close for Cruz. See if he can even hold one miniature "Birthday Cake Candle.
No need to get all upset over Cruz being compared to Jim Jones, because he is smooth talking and has a cult of followers. Its just an opinion comparison. You have yours, I have mine. Calm down. People get "Strokes" turning all red and stuff, talking about yellow dogs.
As for the rest of your post, at the end of the Day, guess who is in the White House? Guess who won two terms? Nothing else needs to be said....facts are facts.
I would compare Barack Obama to Jim Jones, before I ever would Ted Cruz.
You're proof that the cult of corruption, is among us.

Of course you would. Nope, never was into Corruption. That's why I left the Republican Party when Bush and Cheney took office. But thanks for caring...

The cult of corruption, wears a Progressive banner....
Everyone is second guessing the guy. No teleprompter. Speaking from the heart. Hitting every point.
The flow was uncharacteristic of a stiff rehearsed politician.(Dole, McCain, Romney, Hilary)
