To the Editor:
Re “Cruz Takes Hit and Fires Aide for Rubio Clip” (front page, Feb. 23):
Ted Cruz has had to apologize and effect changes in his campaign staff after misrepresentation of Marco Rubio’s statements about the Bible.
In this instance, all parties—and the electorate—would have been better served if both candidates, who profess to venerate the Constitution, had heeded Article VI of that document: “No religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.”

Note from KBJ: What's shocking is that Joseph McInerney thinks this Constitution provision applies.
