Can Ted Cruz Win the Republican Nomination?

23.03.2015
Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz may be the first major candidate to announce a 2016 presidential campaign, but his path to the Republican nomination could be hampered by the very thing that helped him burst onto the national scene: the 2013 government shutdown. Cruz, joined by other strong conservatives in both the House and Senate, refused to back a government funding bill back then unless money to implement the Affordable Care Act was removed. While it was not technically a filibuster, Cruz delivered a 21-hour, 19-minute "talkathon" in opposition to the bill, at one point reading the children's book "Green Eggs and Ham."
