But many here think he is ineligible to run for POTUS due to birth in Canada. IMO if Obama is eligible, Cruz is eligible x 10.

Cruz is so feared and loathed by the LEFT he makes them apoplectic. Works for me.

They fear him because he threatens everything they have been doing for the last 70 years.

Sen Cruz: A Republican with stones. What a refreshing change.
Romney lost because a slew of conservatives didn’t vote for him and stayed home.

Cruz can bring them back.

Where is he on national security...I like his positions on everything listed but there never seems to be anything on his views on the WOT, national defense etc....

The left fears him more because he was a champion debater at Harvard. They know Hillary would look like deer in headlights going one on one against Cruz.

Looks like he is favor of using force to prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons which is an absolute necessity IMO

A leader.

I guess those folks will find themselves voting for Alan Keyes (again) or Ron Paul (again)

The only question is whose heads would explode first, Democrats or GOPe Republicans?

Were either of his parents American citizens at the time of his birth. If that's the case, it doesn't matter WHERE he was born.
