March 22, 201511 yr Reports say Sen Ted Cruz will officially declare on Monday his intent to run for POTUS. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/23/us/politics/ted-cruz-to-announce-on-monday-he-plans-to-run-for-president.html?_r=0
March 23, 201511 yr I've heard reports that Rand Paul has begun the process (whatever that means exactly) and I have some "inside information" that a "special announcement" will be coming from Rand in April.
March 23, 201511 yr Author Seems like I read someone (maybe Mr Paul) cannot run and hold his elected office. Who am I thinking of?
March 23, 201511 yr Seems like I read someone (maybe Mr Paul) cannot run and hold his elected office. Who am I thinking of? I think it is Paul? However, I think they are trying to fix it. How they do that, I have no idea. But it is politics.

March 23, 201511 yr Seems like I read someone (maybe Mr Paul) cannot run and hold his elected office. Who am I thinking of? Good rule. I think that anyone who runs for president should be required to give up any public office they hold. There is no way a person can run and give the taxpayers their money's worth in representation.
March 23, 201511 yr Author By the way, I am still of the mindset that Sen Cruz has ZERO chance of gaining the party nomination. No support.
March 23, 201511 yr Cruz was born in Canada. Where are our birther friends when you need 'em? Seriously, I hope he stays in the race a long time. I'm interested to learn more about his flat-tax proposal, and how this will affect Big Business. I'm all for having billion-dollar corporations pay something, as opposed to paying nothing. It also will be entertaining to listen to Cruz's anti-science schtick which, no doubt, plays well at places like Liberty University.

March 23, 201511 yr Author It will be interesting to see how Sen Cruz addresses Wall Street. That knee-jerk topic appeals to many but his wife is an executive with Sachs.

She is now taking a leave from a position that is second highest at Goldman. She manages accounts for families with more than $40M with the firm. Another candidate with strong connections to the TBTF banks.
