The two Cubans (Rafael Edward "Ted" Cruz)

The Cubans: first, Mario Rubio, the Senator from Florida (see my other blog entry) and now Rafael Edward "Ted" Crux, the Senator from Texas. (Everything is bigger in Texas including the bull shit!)

Rafael was born in Canada to a US Mother and a Cuban Father. There is a form a US parent of a foreign born child must fill out shortly after their child is born in a foreign country.

Did his Mother fill out the required form declaring him a US citizen?

If she did, then Rafael should present his copy of this form to the press. This can not be a xerox. If necessary, the Embassy in Canada should provide a certified true copy or the State Department should provide a certified copy. Any copy from Rafael should be carefully analyzed to verify the form was used at the time and the specific model of typewriter was in use at said American Embassy. A "we lost the form but submitted it" note from his Mother is unacceptable!

He may have been the great genius lawyer but so-fucking-what? It takes much more than being a lawyer to be President!

So, what did Cruz do in the Senate?

He talked the House Republicans into making demands in the House spending bill that the Senate Democrats could not approve. This lead to the government being shut down. (I spent the shutdown working for free. I eventually got paid.) He is now listing this shutdown as an accomplishment! (or so I've heard)

Apparently, Rafael is hated and perhaps despised by many Congressional Republicans as well as the Democrats!  Remember, if you want to know about a person, just ask what their co-workers think of them. (Ouch!)

If you want to predict a person's future behaviour, take a very good look at their past and the current behaviour.  Just how the fuck could an El Señor Presidente Rafael Cruz shut down the Government while occuping the Office of the President?  (Rafael "would find a way".)   (Note: "would find a way" is borrowed from "Hurt", the Johny Cash version.)

We can do a lot better than either of the two Cubans or the bitch!
