Bob, you lost to a guy who got impeached. And you would have gotten one less vote if Jack Kemp had not been your running mate.

Make that two less votes.

No, Cruz would lose by epic proportions to Hillary. It is just how things are, sadly. Besides which Cruz has eligibility issues that are not going to go away; he cannot win.

God said to Adam, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?" -Genesis 3:11

I think you've been listening to the enemy's disinformation, believing they have your best interest at heart. President Cruz is the ultimate threat to the Uniparty that owns both sides of the aisle.

What did she do? My memory must be slipping. I didn’t live there at the time.

How could you possibly yank a bible verse more out of context than this? Are you suggesting that the Lord God has descended unto us, and told you, that He has commanded us to ignore the eligibility requirements of our sacred Constitution, perhaps the holiest document of all human history, outside of the Holy Canon itself, this divinely-inspired document, based on by His great natural law and affirms that He is our creator, this document codifies the laws of the only covenant nation outside Israel herself, this document based on the law given to the great Moses, to support a guy who was not even born in this country? And, further, this man is the only one who can save us? That God in All His Power, who ensured that the lineage of His only Begotten Son, and made him the hereditary lawful King of the Jews, giving His Son, the legal basis to lead, and to save His people? Truly, God who is our King also, is capable of raising up a man who meets the constitutional eligibility requirements in all respects, a man who has the strength, knowledge, and even an embarrassingly acerbic tongue, who can provide us with the leadership, the courage, we the people need to overcome the treachery of those who occupy the seats of power in Washington DC — just as He was capable of giving Abraham the promised son, through his true wife, Sarah, and did not need Abraham's “help” by impregnating his wife's servant, Hagar. Indeed, many of our troubles to this very day, the children of Ishmael, the Muslim terrorists, have come from that unfortunate union.

Though the eating of the apple was only a small thing in and of itself, physically harmless, that simple act, in defiance of the law God gave to them, opened the door to wretchedness and death, and Paradise was lost. And so, you would ask the patriots, the law-abiders, the believers in, the lovers of, the constitution, to break just one simple provision of the constitution, you say it is harmless, it is good, as Eve saw the apple was good to eat. If I ate of your fruit, I would not be like Eve or perhaps like you, an Eve, eating an unlawful fruit not knowing, not understanding what you are doing, supporting an unlawful candidate; unknowing, unthinking, uncaring, unaware, of the terrible harm it will do, thinking, oh it will not hurt us, we will not die as a nation, Ted Cruz will make us great again, strong, wise, powerful, good like Gods! But there are those of us, who like Adam who do who see the horrible problems to follow if we eat this forbidden fruit, we know it is wrong; we can see all of the evil that will follow us and we will be utterly utterly to blame for it, as you will not -- that is if you are an Eve and not a serpent! (I am inclined to think you an Eve, a serpent would not write with such naivety.) And that is what you, oh deceived one, are asking. That we be like Adam who unwisely plunged the whole human race into such sorrow so long ago, and knowing what he was doing. Maybe he even rationalized he was doing it for Eve's sake, for good, for love, but really it was selfish lust. Personally, I decline to an American Adam, I will not support the continued breaking the constitution into little pieces, until it means nothing at all. I will not support Cruz, I will not support Jindhal, I will not support Rubio, and I will never believe that Barak Obama is a lawful president! Find another analogy, that one is terrible. Try reading a the bible at least a little past Genesis.
