    Personally, I have regained a measure of respect for Cruz because he has kept his word in spite of any other motivating factor.

    There is still the proverbial elephant in the POTUS room for him.

    He is a Canadian.

    I agree. He was finally able to lay his personal hurt aside and keep his word. Good for him.

    No, he is a natural born US citizen via Jus Sanguinis, right of blood.

    Would you counsel Heidi to "submit to authority" and copy Ted's ballot too? You know, so as to not "disenfranchise the household".

    I believe it will be challenged and depending on the leanings of members of the SCOTUS Cruz and supporters may be in for a BIG disappointment. Just my opinion.

    Yes I would, because it's principles that are important.

    Of course I would also ask Cruz to reread Exodus 20 and Eph 5 and let the Holy Spirit do His job, and than let both of them vote their conscience whatever that may be.

    The problem with that opinion is that it has no basis in law. :)

    Glenn Beck Breaks Up With Ted Cruz Over His Donald Trump Endorsement

    Glenn Beck nervously paced back and forth through his TV studio designed to look like the Oval Office.

    “He’s gonna call?” the conservative stalwart sheepishly asked. Beck was a lovesick puppy questioning whether his wayward one-and-only, Ted Cruz, will call him as scheduled on Monday morning.

    “He’s gonna call,” co-host and longtime confidant Stu Burguiere reassured him.

    “Alright,” Beck muttered before reminding viewers that the Texan senator was late for his scheduled interview—one which will involve awkward questions about why Cruz abandoned his rogue status to endorse Donald Trump on Friday.

    Beck invested a great deal in his admiration for Cruz. During the Republican primaries, the 52-year-old radio host was so genuinely disgusted by the rise of Trump, he fasted in prayer for Cruz to win the nomination. So deep was his love that he reportedly sank $500,000 in traveling around the country with Cruz to stump for his failed candidacy.

    And when Cruz finally appeared, via telephone, on the The Glenn Beck Radio Program, it was clear that Beck was wondering: What had I just wasted a year of my life on?
