Targeted Americans of Faith to Tell Their Stories
HOUSTON, Texas - The Cruz for President campaign today announced the names of five Americans targeted for their religious faith who will be featured at the South Carolina Rally for Religious Liberty.
"I am proud to be joined by such a heroic group of Americans," said Ted Cruz. "Increasingly, renegade government officials seek to coerce people of faith either to act in a manner that violates their faith or forfeit their career. The right to religious liberty built America. Denying that right is un-American, and it is morally wrong."
Joining Ted Cruz in Greenville will be:
The five will share their stories of government abuse, and the rally will call attention to recent acts of government-sanctioned religious persecution against Americans of faith.
Participating with Cruz in the Rally for Religious Liberty will be Family Research Council president Tony Perkins, as well as Jason and David Benham, entrepreneurs and former major league baseball players who were targeted for their beliefs about the definition of marriage. Other VIP participants will be announced in the coming days.

If I lived within a thousand miles or so of South Carolina, I’d be there. Ted Truz all the way (no typo)
Senator Cruz is the only true social/moral conservative in this race that has a chance to win. He is by far the most balanced (meaning he is conservative in all major areas) candidate for the GOP nomination.
He would probably be the easy winner if it wasn’t for another “candidate” - “he who shall not be named” - that with his demagoguery and cult of personality is sucking all the life out of the party. Of course “he who shall not be named” is narcissistic and only cares about himself. What amazes me is the gullibility of his “worshipers.”
Senator Cruz is the obvious and logically choice. I hope he is still standing when “he who shall not be named” finally impales himself on his on tongue.
