Of course.

You're hallucinating. The GOP never enacted any new version of the Constitution.

Three very interesting statements from his speech
I want to ask each of you to imagine, imagine millions of courageous conservatives, all across America, rising up together to say in unison “we demand our liberty.”

I believe in you. I believe in the power of millions of courageous conservatives rising up to reignite the promise of America, and that is why today I am announcing that I’m running for president of the United States.

I am honored to stand with each and every one of you courageous conservatives as we come together to reclaim the promise of America, to reclaim the mandate, the hope and opportunity for our children and our children’s children. We stand together for liberty.



Who's President/King is Obama?

Yet Obama attacks productive Americans, yep, not my president. A president is supposed to be for ALL people.

The current occupant of the White House has made it very clear that he is not the president of all Americans, but just those who voted for him.

He has made it abundantly clear that even when he gets his head handed to him in a national election that he doesn't care what the majority feels or wants he will only do what he wants because elections only have consequences when we says so.

You're mistaken; this started prior, under Bush.

Hard to argue with that.

What's the problem? Yes, his strong invasion positions and the fact that Goldman Sachs would always be whispering in his ear is why I am not going to vote for him. There is a problem with that?

Cruz is certainly better than Bush in that regard. Wall Street is falling all over itself to get next to him.
Do you expect either of the two major parties' nominees for POTUS to be anything but?

You make totally no sense what so ever. This isn't about "my script" whatever the hell that is.

What OP is doing here is misinterpreting a few statements in an attempt to put Cruz in a bad light. Cruz is running as an unabashed conservative, so during his campaign, naturally most of his support is going to be coming from conservatives and lovers of liberty. That was all that he meant, and all that he said.
Ya know, I didn't explain in detail exactly what I meant by the question because it's pretty obvious and I assumed that the people reading it would have brains and would know, without it having to be explained to them, that it wasn't a constitutional or legal question.
