Thanks for your reply. I am 70 years old, born in Texas and lived here most of my life. While I disagree with you, I do appreciate your candor.

Fair enough. I like Cruz, always have. Still a Trump person, will see how it turns out. We have to win, it’s an absolute must!

I agree and i voted for him all three times also. He has not been very upfront about the whole Canadian citizen until he was 43 years old thing.

Yes!... and no. A Schwartzeneggar-Governator-type win could be worse in the long-term.

If we lose again, there may be no long term.

I barely recognize America now - add a bunch more illegals and the lovely culture of having Muslims i.e. Europe.

I feel Trump has the strength to fight all that. I think he’ll be great for the economy, hire the right people to make the right deals with China, keep illegals out and only allow legal immigration. I’m okay with a health plan to cover everyone. Obamacare is a disaster but like with all government programs, you can’t undo so we’ll have to come up with a better solution. I just think Trump will be a problem solver.

Cruz apologized for it, but I still doubt that he was aware of it until he heard about it from the media...Steve King needs to watch his mouth and not spread unfounded rumors.

Because Trump advocated it? Would you have supported this new big gov program had it been proposed by Rubio, Cruz, Carson, Jeb, or any of the others?

Iowa Caucus’ seem to have no real meaning or effect on moving up to the general election. The Iowa winner is snakebite after taking the lead there............

Rick Santorum, Gov. Huckabee, and now (?) Ted Cruz.

Real elections will follow in rapid succession in the following weeks. We’ll see if the pattern holds......

"I looked through some of your posting history and I saw more baseless claims"

Ok, I'll play. But to keep things simple just one issue at a time. Did or did not Cruz claim eminent domain made Trump rich in this ad

Is that true? Did Trump get rich using eminent domain.

Why is it that none of the other campaigns did not claim Carson was dropping out? I guess team Cruz is the only campaign that watches CNN./s

"I am so sorry I stole your voters and won the Iowa primary" says Ted Cruz with his fingers crossed behind his back.

Cruz is a slime ball.

Let me see if I understand the rules of this debate...

1) You make a baseless claim
2) I call you on your baseless claim and ask for proof
3) You renew your baseless claim with proof that the baseless claim was made
4) I have to prove your baseless claim for you

In a word... No.
