This is man we NEED as president.
Ted is going to need 8 years to put this Republic back on the road to restoration, many of these kids will be ready to vote five years from now, and they will have developed the talent and confidence to bring a whole host of other young people with them to the voting booth.
I’ve been saying consistently Cruz is a strategist, his goals in his strategy is not just short term to gain the presidency, it is long term to ensure his efforts will continue to grow for many many years to come, defeating the progressive liberal democrat communists will be a long and tough fight, we must be prepare the young to be engaged.
I agree with this writer’s assessment of Cruz, but I am trying to figure out how he “marveled audiences”.
Ping!
You have no problem with his TPA or Corker vote?
Don’t worry about dropping nouns. Heck, Tommy Roe did a whole song that way.

This program he has to support his campaign is a great bookend to some efforts to get teenagers into the election process...
Texas passed an amendment to the Election code that allows teens, 16 and older, who have a SS#, and an address in the county where they wish to work as clerks in polling locations, the ability to do something more with their volunteer hours to actually do something substantive in their communities...
Since 2009 when that change was implemented, I have worked to increase the number of kids participating in this program in the last 6 years, and now have 22 kids and 3 returning college kids wanting to continue their participation as adults...
No longer will I tolerate the incessant whining about “we don’t have clerks, much less the mandated support of Vietnamese, or Spanish interpreters because I have tapped into this reassure and the kids are coming to me now...
They are mostly ethnic and are all AP or Honor roll kids...None of them are looking to duck class either...
So combined with this Ted Cruz program, and Texas seeing the need to invigorate our election polling crews with these motivated kids...
Its a win/win situation for everyone...
I do not know of anyone else in the state of Texas putting this many folks into the crews working these polls than what we have going on in S.E. Texas...
As I tell folks I run into, I really don’t plan on doing this political stuff forever...So we need to develop our legacy if conservatism is to survive...
