It's Time To Draft Ted Cruz for President

Following the distancing of Ted Cruz and Rand Paul

Quote:
It’s Time to Draft Ted Cruz for President

When Republicans run for the White House as conservatives, we win. When they run as moderates, we lose. Yet every four years, the party bosses and political consultants tell us that conservatives are unelectable and that we must support their big-government candidates.

Ted Cruz: Young people don't need 'condescension and patronizing' from Washington

"My strongest reaction is that the president is doing a lot of pop culture, he's sitting between a couple of ferns, he's hanging out with basketball stars, he's trying to say that everything is hip and hunky dory without taking responsibility to the over 6 million people who have had their health insurance policies canceled because of Obamacare," Cruz said.

Cruz Disagrees With Rand Paul That GOP Should "Agree To Disagree" On Social Issues

Rand Paul is Not the Guy for 2016 but Ted Cruz Might Be

Rand Paul is an appealing candidate to many conservatives. But he has a fatal libertarian streak on social issues that will make his candidacy in 2016 a non-starter for conventional conservatives.

Ted Cruz speaking out against Jeb Bush's pandering remarks on illegal immigration -"It's not a felony. It's an act of love."

Cruz’s larger point is that the emphasis should be on legal immigration rather than illegal immigration.

If you pay attention to what Fox (Faux) news, who supports the GOP Establishment, is saying, they are excluding both Cruz and Rand Paul as viable candidates. We did see how they framed the narrative to push everyone out of the way for Mitt, forming almost every question to include Mitt. That gave the impression there were no other choices. Blatantly dishonest of them.

Cruz is, thus far, very honest and principled. He is brilliant and focused. I think that if support for him would grow, he could reach out to Independents and win. The Independents, today, outnumber either party and can be counted on to turn an election on it's head. They will vote for whoever they feel is the most honest and principled. Enter Ted Cruz.

Biden has recently stated that the Democratic Party could lose to Ted Cruz. And I could see him eviscerate Hillary in any debate. I think she would be very afraid to go up against him.

I LOVED how he looked at Trayvon Martin's mother in the face, at the hearing on the issue of Stand Your Ground, and told her how sorry everyone was for the loss of her son but that this case had nothing to do with Stand Your Ground. He is brilliant and you can't argue with that. I can see him "stand his ground" with Hillary any day.

This is up to 2,198. Just following out of curiosity. I'm not sure a lot of people have arrived to get on the Cruz bandwagon yet.
