VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. - Texas Senator Ted Cruz said the upcoming presidential election is now more important than ever when it comes to defending the Bill of Rights.
Cruz was in Virginia Beach, Va., at Regent University's Presidential Candidate Forum courting evangelicals ahead of Super Tuesday, March 1.
"Just a few days ago I attended Justice Scalia's funeral. And his passing underscores that the stakes of this presidential election are not just one, but two branches of government," Cruz noted.
"We are one liberal justice away from a five-justice left wing majority, the likes of which this country has never seen that will undermine our basic rights," Cruz told the audience.
"We are one liberal justice away from the Supreme Court ordering veterans memorials torn down all over this country, and I tell you we're not far away from the court ordering the chisels to come out to remove the crosses and the stars of David from the tombstones of fallen soldiers. That's what the stakes are in this election," Cruz added.
Cruz, referencing a comment by GOP frontrunner Donald Trump from the most recent debate, said he has no intention of cutting a deal with Harry Reid and nominating a justice who isn't true to the constitution.

His wife is a CFR operative, a bankster, and a Bush machine product as is he.
That is his choice for a spouse.
His campaign champion is Glenn Beck.
And we are to trust him for a Justice?
Not all of us have hallucinaTED
I trust Trump to judge people’s character more than Cruz. Cruz is picking some real losers.
How incredibly true and sad that is.
B.S.
He picked a lunatic, Glenn Beck.
Because all these guys are on the same team. No outsiders welcomed.
Big whoop.
CHRISTIAN CONSERVATIVES
DO NOT BE DECEIVED BY MEDIA MACHINATIONS
Some fundamentalists have a thing against Catholics particularly the Pope. That story the MSM conjured up about the pope singling out Trump being a non christian may have turned this for Trump in South Carolina .
But the pope was responding to a loaded question full of statements which the pope did not believe by a reporter from Reuters news agency. So the pope emphasized that in his response and never mentioned Trumps name in his lengthy reply .This btw was uncovered by Rush Limbaugh Friday talkie a day before the election show; It was this; expressed here in abstract;
In his reply the pope used the term One, to generalize his example and began with; If actually one said ( but Trumps name was inserted here by MSM ) and Pope Francis continued with : one does, one did, one believes : such and such in his response to a rather lenghty loaded question by a so called reporter.. it was meant to be a generalized position applied to anyone who has those views in the questions that were presented to him .Turning Those that only focus on building walls and not bridges are not Christian’ into “Those who build walls like Trump are not Christian”.
Trump responded to what he thought was a direct personal attack by the Pope which was shared and agreed to by everybody including this Catholic and what they were responding is to Trump in effect telling the pope to go to hell which made the difference.
If they voted that way because of that reason they were mislead by machinations of the media not the pope. Now the medias anti religious agenda is busy claiming Cruz wont win by emphasizing Christian values in: marriage, planned parenthood, abortion and the questioning of wandering positions on these subjects taken by Trump. Which diverts the attention from the media and its involvement while minimizing the Cruz candidacy.
Urge Ted to stay the course and defeat this conspiracy to elect the blowhard . We want back to the days of the constitution and the government out of our bedrooms, kitchens, gas tanks, back yards, as well as our religions.
And pick justices who will keep it that way . TED CRUZ IS THE ONE WE NEED FOR BRINGING US TOGETHER AS ONE. ONE FLAG.... ONE LANGUAGE . and the end of hyphenations as ONE PEOPLE ..ONE COUNTRY
No matter whose positions you are for, Cruz’s judgment throughout the campaign has been questionable: he allowed the “vote fraud” mailers to go out; had to apologize to Carson, a Christian man, for campaign misconduct (plus fire a staffer); put out an ad with a porn queen; partnered with Beck; allowed himself to be drawn into a devil’s deal with Rubio; and badly misjudged the importance of political endorsements.
This isn’t a great record of good judgment.
Thank you, you are correct and proof that evangelicals and faithful Catholics can be effective and close allies!
Wow. Do you really believe such ignorant statements?
Character. How many women has Trump screwed? Character matters.
Trump at Regent
You are right. Keep the faith, FRiend.
And Trump is a serial adulterer. So there’s that.
Oh, and his so-called “university.”
Ted Cruz...
All the charm of Barry Goldwater along with the ethics of Richard Nixon.
Well if we are comparing let’s see “how many women Ted Cruz screwed”.
Put up or shut up.
How many times has the GOPe screwed the American people? That affects all of us.
