GOP presidential candidate Ted Cruz will appear in Michigan

BRIGHTON, Mich. (AP) >> Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz will be in Michigan in early June.

Cruz, a senator from Texas, will be the main attraction at a Livingston County Republican event in Brighton on June 3. He’ll speak at the party’s Lincoln Day dinner.

Local party chairman Dan Wholihan tells radio station WHMI it’s exciting to have a presidential candidate as a guest. A dinner ticket costs $60. A ticket for dinner and a reception is $150.

Cruz’ campaign in Michigan is being led by Saul Anuzis, former chairman of the state Republican Party.

"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan

"A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Freepers should start a petition that Fox include Ted in their polls, and coverage. Its bad enough we have a liberal lame stream media and press, but Fox has blacklisted Ted.

Even that weenie Rubio who the conservative wing doesn’t trust and Kookie Rand Paul who has no foreign policy get face time and Fox coverage but Cruz the only real conservative with the ability to speak, the money to compete and the religious and conservative economic and foreign policy that can unite the majority of the party like Reagan did is being ignored.

Hey Rush , tell your friend Ailes to remember his roots.

He’s also named Michigan GOP vice chair (Wendy Day) to be his campaign director for Michigan.

While I’m not a big fan of Saul Anuzis, Wendy Day is very solid.
