This country is due a good strong president who knows what he is doing. I say he, because I hope against hope Hillary Clinton doesn't get the job. That would be three duds in a row and that's 3 too many. I've been told I don't like Obama because he's black, which is not true. I don't like him because he's incompetent and a weenie, which also fits his predecessor. Hillary's history does her in, imo. I don't know about Cruz. Maybe.

Don't forget Ted Cruz argued in court in favor of the 2003 Texas gerrymandering plan that diluted Mexican American voting power by packing them into a few districts so Republicans could win more seats. Mexican Americans won't forget that.

Living off the name "clinton" is not experience. Hillary is the "kardashian" of politics.

After the last big failure from Texas, I highly doubt Americans would want another.

The person Cruz does not want to debate is Paul. Cruz has stood with the establishment more times then not where Paul will stand alone. Cruz just supported aid to the Ukraine for a billion dollars and by the way is not paid for. Real conservative and constitutional of him don't ya think?

Hillary will never have to debate Cruz. He has no conceivable chance of winning the Republican nomination.

I don't think she will run this coming general election.


Longest serving in history and first hispanic, former Solicitor General of the Great State of TEXAS and youngest ever in the USA.

Associate Deputy Attorney General at the US-DOJ
US Domestic Policy Advisor.
Adjunct Professor of Law at UT School of Law - Austin, where he taught U.S. Supreme Court litigation

Graduated cumlaude from Princeton, where he was named U.S. National Speaker of the Year and Team of the Year (with his debate partner, David Panton) Cruz was also a semi-finalist at the 1995 World Universities Debating Championships, making him Princeton’s highest-ranked debater at the championship .Princeton's debate team later named their annual novice championship after Cruz.

Graduated cumlaude from Harvard.
primary editor of the Harvard Law review and executive editor of the Harvard Journal of Law and Public Policy, also a founding editor of the Harvard Latino Law Review

Has authored more than 80 US Supreme Court briefs and presented 43 oral arguments, including nine before the United States Supreme Court. Cruz's record of having argued before the Supreme Court nine times is more than any practicing lawyer in Texas, or any current member of Congress.


Heller vs. District of Columbia
Drafted the amicus brief signed by attorneys general of 31 states, which said that the D.C. handgun ban should be struck down as infringing upon the 2nd Amendment. Cruz also presented oral argument for the amici states in the companion case to Heller before the US Court of Appeals.

I think she will run. She doesn't back down either. I bet she would love to debate Cruz, but she won't have to because he won't be the republican nominee.
