All of ours...yours and mine. Even if I didn't like him he'd still be MY president because I respect the office.
By his personal and petty actions he has dishonored the office of President. With that in mind, he is not nor ever has been a president representing a majority portion of Americans, including me.
A president of this nation does not act only for his personal gain but for the good of the country and does not consistently lie or have the need for his acolytes to try to tell everyone what he actually meant when he makes another vile statement.
This question is pretty easily disposed of. If elected, of course Cruz would be President of all Americans. That is what the Constitution says, and Cruz is a Constitutionalist. Notice also that nowhere does Cruz say that he would not be President of all Americans if elected.
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.
I gave the exact quotes, how is that misinterpreting?
It's one thing to run as a conservative, that's fine. But when you ask for votes you don't just ask the conservatives for votes as if they're the only ones who matter or as if the others aren't real Americans
It will be fun to watch the progressives claim Canadian born Cruz is eligible to be president. Ironically many will be the same that said Kenyan born Obama isnt
Do you throw darts at a board of con yapping points to compose your posts? Obama was born in Hawaii
He only reflects the rich and those gullible enough to believe that the IRS are blood-sucking leaches who offer no good too society and want more wars.
If he's elected President on November 8, 2016, then Ted Cruz will be the President of the United States of America. Unless someone launches a coup d'etat against him (which won't happen), he will be everyone's president. It's much like how Barack Obama is every American's president now, or like how it was Ronald Reagan in the 1980s, or Dwight Eisenhower in the 1950s, or Bill Clinton in the 1990s.
That's all there is to it.

Those people saw all Americans as Americans, they didn't see only some as Americans and others as the enemy
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.
He's running to be the candidate in the GOP primary. The "we are the world" stuff comes later.

In answer to your question, Ted Cruz said in a recent interview:
"Look, I think part of it is, the basic values of this country are commonsense conservative values - live within your means, don't bankrupt your kids and grandkids, follow the Constitution. It's only in Washington that those are viewed as radical or extreme propositions, and most of America - you get people, Republicans, Democrats, Independents, Libertarians who come together and say, 'Look, that just makes commonsense'."
He assigned cases to read. He didn't teach Constitutional Law, he taught Social Justice in the guise of Con. Law.
Cruz also studied and taught US Supreme Court litigation. He also argued in front of the US Supreme Court on 9 occasions as Solicitor General of the State of Texas and he also was a law clerk for Chief Justice Rehnquist.
Then Rafael Cruz Jr. should KNOW prohibiting same-sex marriage is unconstitutional.
