Sorry Rick. I voted for you every time you ran for Governor, and I think you are a great guy. But running for President means you have to be able to talk your way through the “press ambush.” And I've seen your performance several times when ambushed - and it ain't pretty.

I've posted this here before and I'll post it again: The REAL genius of Ronald Reagan was he could take a press ambush, turn it around, and instantly turn it to his advantage. No Republican before or since could ever do it as well.

And I still think Rick Perry is a good person and a conservative - but communication wise, he ain't even one quarter of a Ronald Regan.

Cruz has that ability to turn a MSM ambush against them.

Ronald Reagan was an actor which WAS a GREAT resume builder as far
as the press is concerned! I TRULEY MISS his communication skills, I
TRULEY MISS him period!! You saw when he passed how much the
public TRULEY LOVED him, streets were lined across the country with
people just to see a casket go by!! There will NEVER be another like him!

I will never vote for a senator in a primary. I believe governors (or CEO of large company or proven military leader)are best prepared to take on the WH - especially a very successful governor like Perry. Senators are the worst candidates - they are all mouth.
