I understand your enthusiasm for Senator Cruz for POTUS, but I have a different take on this subject. I believe that he is in the right place where he can be more effective at this stage of his career. I think that he could and would be the best Senate Majority Leader this country has ever had and that would be a tremendous contribution.
The job of POTUS is going to require someone that has experience and respect in the International front. Someone that our Allies know that they can trust when (not if) things reach a critical mass with the Muzzies and the Commies.
Conversely, we are going to be required to re-establish the high degree of RESPECT and FEAR that our Enemies had for our military (and National Resolve) that Obama has severely diminished. I do not believe that Senator Cruz has this in his resume’, at least not after serving in the Senate for only one year.
That is why, at this point, I am hoping to see General James Mattis run for the office. Our Allies know this man as well as our Enemies. They have seen his strengths and know that he will not be trifled with by the Bad Guys.
Just my honest opinion.
Amen..... for president, to sort out the mess, we need a governor or even a strong corporate CEO. Strong executive skills are an absolute necessity.
Cruz while a fantastic conservative ideologue, exhibits no administrative credential
A lawyer still damp behind the ears is not my choice.
“...I understand your enthusiasm for Senator Cruz for POTUS, but I have a different take on this subject...”
You make seriously good and valid points. That’s about the best description of what we need in POTUS as I’ve heard.
Cruz would be an excellent Senate Majority Leader, and if we take the Senate back this November, that should be Job One on Day One.
As for the good General Mattis... I wish he would run, and start showing his face now so he gets more recognition. The homegrown Pravda media would sh*t their pants over him. Wouldn’t THAT be enjoyable to watch, huh?
