    You cannot purchase healthcare without going through the healthcare.gov market. How else can I write this?
    Is there a mandate that he has coverage? Yes or no?

    Does he have to go through obama care to get insurance? Why spend time arguing something that has nothing to do with the initial point that Cruz is hypocritical?

    Cruz’s Constant References to Jesus Drive Millions to Atheism

    WASHINGTON —The Republican Presidential candidate Ted Cruz’s constant references to Jesus Christ in his speeches and campaign ads are sparking a strong interest in atheism among millions of Americans, atheist leaders report.

    Since Sen. Cruz (R-Texas) announced his candidacy two weeks ago with the words “God isn’t done with America yet,” a substantial number of Americans “have begun seriously questioning the existence of God,” said Carol Foyler, the executive director of the American Society of Atheists.


    “It’s been amazing,” Foyler said. “We’re getting calls from people who are curious about atheism for the first time in their lives. And when we ask them what got them thinking about it, they all say the same thing: ‘I just heard Ted Cruz talk.’ ”

    Foyler said that her group often notices a surge in atheism after natural disasters or other traumatic events that rattle people’s faith, but, she added, “We’ve never seen anything like Ted Cruz.”

    After Cruz aired an Easter weekend campaign ad in which he spoke of the transformative power of Christ, Foyler said, “Our phones were ringing off the hook.”


    “As an atheist, I naturally don’t believe in the power of Christ to transform people,” she said.

    “But I definitely believe in the power of Ted Cruz to transform people into atheists.”

    Richard Dawkins, the evolutionary biologist and outspoken atheist, said that Cruz’s ability to convert millions to atheism was “nothing short of extraordinary.”

    “Ted Cruz has created more atheists in two weeks than I have in decades,” Dawkins said.

    In Texas. Texas is one of the states that has been active in noncooperation though. And frankly it sounds like most of the issues you are having are with the website. Try making a phonecall to bluecross or the like. You can sign up with them directly over the phone if you want. If you want subsidies you have to go through the feds but duh.

    What's wrong with taking advantage of a law?

    Does one have to agree with a law to comply with it?
    uh, whut? I have no idea what you are talking about.

    I don't really see the disconnect but whatever, this is just politics as usual. Also, just thought I'd mention that it's Hilary's presidency to lose. It will take an absolutely embarrassing failure for her not to win it, IMHO.

    I wish. the website worked quite well. I was just unable to buy it from blue cross when i left the army. I was living in colorado at the time, which has a state marketplace. But non the less, all the healthcare websites, refer you back to healthcare.gov with a comment of how they only sell through that website. This is a little troubling that all you pro obamacare people don't know that.
    A little more of my story-so they didn't think getting out of the army and off Tri-care was a good exemption for getting healthcare after the deadline. And there was no way in I was going to pay month to month. At the time I thought it was too expensive. But now that I got health coverage this year, it seemed about normal.
    So I'm against obamacare and I had to buy it through healthcare.gov. I don't think I'm a hypocrite, or the next president Ted Cruz is a hypocrite. Since it's the law and for all the genuises not getting insurance out of some stance-enjoy that $90/mo per dependent fee errr I mean fine ugh I mean tax. Yeah thats what it is-a tax. Enjoy the tax.
