Thank you Hillary. You’re the only one standing between Trump and the White House now.

Keep it up...

You’re going down.

Humble in a narcissistic holier-than-thou sort of way, maybe...

This guy didn’t just magically appear, his personality is well known.

He’s the only one who’s tried to do, or has done exactly what he said he’d do. The others have no history of knowing how to govern. I am voting Cruz and writing him in if I must. If he doesn’t make it, the Americans aren’t uncomfortable enough to change.They will be after Clinton or Sanders has their way.

OMG. Cruz? “Humble”? That man is supremely arrogant in a phony “aw shucks” kind of way.

But none of the candidates is humble. A person could not, and would not, make himself candidate for President if truly humble.

People aren’t blind. One glance at Cruz pontificating on whatever subject belies your hypothesis that he even knows the meaning of humble.

Amen! I hired a realtor once who asked why I chose him. I said because I’d been told he was the toughest sonofabitch in town an I wanted to get the best deal I could. That’s why the American people are going to hire Donald Trump.

Do some more research. Associates present and former call him a liar and untrustworthy.

What has cruz done to stop the illegal invasion that is happening on the border of the USA and Texas the state he is supposed to be representing? Any build a wall initiatives? No nothing

Trump will build the wall.

Take a look at this interview with Trump and his sons . It's the most amazing thing I've ever seen. Trump can save America . If you doubt it watch this video

...with one particular caveat - Cruz, MUST get a federal court ruling on his NBC eligibility to be President. He should do that NOW, so Trump could, if he wanted, pick him for VP because there’s a good chance Trump’s VP will be a top contender for President in 2024.

Thanks for sharing, GodGunsGuts.

It's a truly sad state of affairs that a good man, who has been fighting for his country for years and years, has been personally cannibalized for the political aspirations of one man who did nothing but feather his own nest during the same time period....and another man who swore he would never support amnesty to get a job in Washington and then helped build a monstrous amnesty bill.

And that the supporters of these men can't see anything wrong with that is even more tragic.

“I can tell you that Ted Cruz is the best candidate to uphold the Constitution and put the interests of the American people first.”

Ted Cruz is denouncing the Constitution and it’s prohibition of his eligibility due to his birth as a Canadian citizen, so this claim of his being a humble upholder of the Constitution is a cynical, sad, and often contemptuous falsehood and deception in direct defiance of the Constitution and anyone who would dare to enforce it. Ted Cruz also defied the Constitution when he assisted the Bush Administration with crafting the political and legal means to allow illegal immigrants to remain in the United States indefinitely. Now, those indiscretions have come back to haunt his political campaign even as he has come under criticism for some unethical political campaigning. So, this portrayal of Ted Cruz as a defender of the Constitution is belied by some of his current and past actions, despite the many positive contributions he has made with respect to the defense of 2nd Amendment rights and other issues of concern to conservatives.

I support Ted Cruz for the Presidency because I believe, despite what detractors may say, that his record shows that he has the best constitutional knowledge and commitment, and the best experience, demeanor and faith for the job.
.................................................
The best constitutional knowledge when he deliberately votes away the Constitution OBLIGATION of the Senate to approve Treaties? The best constitutional knowledge when he runs for a position for which HE IS NOT ELIGIBLE? The best Constitutional knowledge when he votes to give Fast Track to Obama which shoves our SOVEREIGNTY AS A NATION IN THE GROUND?
Cruz is all for the Open Border-Cheap Labor Express and his slick tongued legalese is uunderstood by some of us. Too bad, not all.
I will NOT vote for him!

Ted Cruz supports illegal alien amnesty.

TED CRUZ: U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee, Hearing, 5/21/13:

"And I'd like to make a final point to those advocacy groups that are very engaged in this issue and rightly concerned about addressing our immigration system and, in particular, about addressing the situation for the 11 million who are currently in the shadows. If this amendment is adopted to the current bill, the effect would be that those 11 million under this current bill would still be eligible for RPI status. They would still be eligible for legal status and indeed, under the terms of the bill, they would be eligible for LPR status as well so that they are out of the shadows, which the proponents of this bill repeatedly point to as their principal objective to provide a legal status for those who are here illegally to be out of the shadows. This amendment would allow that happen, but what it would do is remove the pathway to citizenship so that there are real consequences that respect the rule of law and that treat legal immigrants with the fairness and respect they deserve. And a second point to those advocacy groups that are so passionately engaged. In my view, if this committee rejects this amendment, and I think everyone here views it as quite likely this committee will choose to reject this amendment, in my view, that decision will make it much, much more likely that this entire bill will fail in the House of Representatives. I don't want immigration reform to fail. I want immigration reform to pass. And so I would urge people of good faith on both sides of the aisle, if the objective is to pass common sense immigration reform that secures the borders, that improves legal immigration, and AMNESTY: that allows those who are here illegally to come in out of the shadows.Then we should look for areas of bipartisan agreement and compromised to come together. And this amendment, I believe, if this amendment were to pass, the chances of this bill passing into law would increase dramatically."

All true and Cruz also voted for the Corker Bill which empowered Iran to build nukes.

What has cruz done to stop the illegals invasion that is happening on the border of the USA and Texas the state he is supposed to be representing? Any build a wall initiatives? No nothing.Has cruz been to the border or even to Texas since he was elected or just to fundraisers for his big daddy rich internationalist donors?

Trump will build the wall.

I would describe Ted Cruz in many ways, but “humble” isn’t one of them.

"...Ted Cruz is going to be very humble when he limps back to the U.S. Senate..."

At least he's going to have that.

Rubio's just out on his azz isn't he?
