Longtime Conservative Activist Says Cruz is Principled, Experienced
HOUSTON, Texas - Today, the Cruz for President campaign announced that Ted Cruz has received the endorsement of Virginia "Ginni" Thomas, a longtime activist for conservative causes. Thomas has served as a top congressional advisor, a senior political appointee at the U.S. Department of Labor, and a senior executive with The Heritage Foundation. Her popular video series at the Daily Caller News Foundation focuses on conservative leaders who are breaking through in today's politics. Thomas said Cruz has leadership skills America needs to move forward.
Ginni Thomas: I Am Proudly Endorsing Ted Cruz for President in 2016 (video)
"I am looking for the kind of person who will be the leader of the free world," Thomas said in an endorsement video. "Someone who has a North Star; someone who is a principled, experienced conservative. And Ted Cruz has got the scars to show he has tangled with the top Republican leaders and Democrats leaders in town…Rhetoric and promise on the campaign trail are not enough."
"You have to say Ted Cruz is a leader. And he is distinguishing himself as somebody who can make things happen and excite the country to bring us back on course," Thomas added. "That's why I have finally decided it is time to endorse a candidate. And I am proudly endorsing Ted Cruz for president in 2016."
Previously, Thomas also served as the Washington representative for Hillsdale College, and an advocate for free enterprise with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Since 2010, she has been an advocate for conservatives and a conservative media talent.

Ginni is Justice Clarence Thomas’ wife.
Excellent
I’m waiting for the Trump fanbois to say, “Cruz would make a fine supreme court nominee” ...
It’s becoming increasingly likely (albeit still unlikely) that the primary may well boil down to a competition between Cruz and Trump, with the GOP-e losers cast aside. I would love it if we could finally have a debate in this country where both sides have good intentions and are intelligent.
Trump is riding on pumped up rhetoric, copying Cruz positions. Eventually Trump will try to wage war on Cruz like he said he would, and then Cruz will have to show the voters why Trump is a gas bag...records matter...show me where you bled conservatism matters. Words are just words.
Cruz or lose!

Excellent!
I am proud to support Ted Cruz, too.
I never got a headline story...
Facts are stubborn things, aren’t they?
Thanks for posting the table.
Those people sure are myopic, aren’t they?
You’re right 100%. When Trump and Cruz begin actively competing against each other, it’s going to be fascinating. I’m confident that Cruz has been planning how he’ll unfold his campaign vis-a-vis Trump, and it’ll be genius. Trump will probably just do what Trump does — hamfisted attacks and vulgar insults. I pray that Trump fanbois come to their senses when they see the exchanges between Trump and Cruz ...
I note that folks who are serious about Constitutional conservatism support Cruz.
Another commie for you Laz.
Zero Two, you ignorant fool.
Teddy has been running around for several days spouting Trump’s immigration position verbatim, including - most recently - his outright appropriation of Trump’s Trojan Horse analogy to the Syrian migration.
Your giddiness is clouding your view of reality.
My how classy the Trump supporters are, coming on the Ted Cruz threads trowing out personal insults at the Ted Cruz supporters.
Sounds almost like the Teamster Union Thugs.
Not all Trump supporters are Teamster Union thugs, but a lot of Teamster Union thugs are Trump supporters, must explain their total hatred of forgieners taking their American jobs.
Wake up, Donald Trump turned Conservative as soon as he decided to enter the race for President, he is the True Trojan Horse ( Liberal ) candidate.
Donald Trump is actually the one who copies off of Ted Cruz to get his views.
He is like a listing ship out in the ocean with no moral bearings only to steal them from Ted Cruz.
Donald Trump does not own the copy rights to the term Trojan Horse.
The only ones who are truly ignorant are those who choose to ignore blind as a bat Donald Trump’s liberal views in the past.
Blisful ignorance to the truth is how anyone can describe the Trump supporters.
Good for you, Ginni!!
DONALD TRUMP 2016 !
Endorsed by the Teamsters Union Thugs.
LOOK FOR THE UNION LABLE.
They don’t call him THE DON for nothing.
