His ethnicity? He's white. That's why he's such a great "Hispanic" candidate for Republicans. Same with Rubio.

Ted Cruz is in it to take care of Ted Cruz.
I guess you don't know the difference between ethnicity/culture and race? Most Hispanics are at least partially white racially from their Spanish ancestors. By the way, all politicians are out to take of themselves in case you haven't noticed.

Well, of course he's hispanic by ethnicity. His real name is Rafael. Ted goes over better with white conservatives, though.

Anyway, Rafael's family hails from the communist enclave of Cuba, and Rafael's daddy was some sort of a socialist who fought in Castro's guerrilla groups against the Batista regime.

But the real kicker is that Rafael was born in Canada, and so he is no more eligible than conservatives Obama was to be president! In fact less so, because the whole Kenya thing was a lie whereas this is quite true.

So sorry to say, but Rafael isn't eligible to be prez anyway by conservatives' own standards.

Well, then, by your own definition the right is racist by the way they have treated President Obama. We all knew it, but thank you for admitting it.

No I think thinking people oppose Barack Obama because he is an idiot, not because of his racial heritage, whatever that may be.



Cruz's ethnicity is Hispanic, his race is white.



You are racist because of how you have treated Allen West, Herman Cain, Ben Carson, Jason Riley, Raffi Williams, Clarence Thomas, Thomas Sowell, Clarence Page, Larry Elder, Walter Williams, JC Watts, Alan Keyes, Michael Steele, Janice Rogers Brown, Miguel Estrada, Alberto Gonzalez, Ward Connerly, Ken Hamlin, Roy Innis, Ken Blackwell, Charles Paine, Crystal Wright, Armstrong Williams, Condoleezza Rice and Colin Powell...... to name a few.

You are sexist because of how you have treated Ann Coulter, Sarah Palin, Michelle Rhee, Michelle Malkin, Tammy Bruce, Condoleezza Rice, Laura Ingraham, Kathryn Lopez, Linda Chavez, Jan Brewer, Catherine Engelbrecht, Meg Whitman, Peggy Noonan, Carly Fiorina, Elisabeth Hasselback, Michelle Bachman, Nancy Reagan and the Bush twins.... to name a few.
Not all people with Hispanic last names are "Hispanic". Some are American Black, some are English white, many are Filipino or American Indian.

Liberals don't like Cruz because he's a Teabag wing nut, not because he's Hispanic.
Uh; "Hispanic" is a bogus political label. A German dude with a Spanish last name is German in culture, NOT Spanish.

So funny.... in the leftie world Rafael Sr. should be a hero because he was fighting the evil Batista who was in bed with the capitalists, but I guess he betrayed the World Socialist Movement when he figured out the cure (Castro) was worse than the disease (Batista).

Lucky for us we've seen Cruz's birth certificate in advance and know that his parents were legal U.S. residents living in Canada so we don't need to go through that whole hassle that Obama caused.

No, Republicans have treated Obama the way they have treated all socialist, despotic Democrats.

You on the other hand have fallen all over yourselves with direct racist attacks on the many accomplished black Americans I mentioned. The same goes for the Democrats War on Women (who don't think like us).

Oh, right. Everyone on the left is racist for their behavior towards conservative blacks, but no one on the right is racist for their behavior toward left leaning blacks.

And more ridiculous and pathetic still is that you probably really believe that.

And by that same logic, you would have to admit that Obama was also eligible for president even if he had been born in Kenya (which is a lie) since his mom was a US citizen. Conservatives are such hypocrites.
