Bush: Why I'm supporting Ted Cruz for president (Neil Bush)
Houston Chronicle ^ | 3/10/16 | Neil Bush

Posted on 03/11/2016 7:24:16 AM PST by jimbo123

For the record, I was heartbroken when my brother Jeb dropped out of the race for president, not just because he's my brother but because he was clearly the best-qualified candidate, in both experience and temperament to lead the nation.

But I've moved on and now two things motivate me to act with urgency to support Ted Cruz. First, Donald Trump must be stopped. He cannot win against even a flawed Hillary Clinton and his style doesn't reflect the best of American values, including service above self. And second, it is very clear that the only viable option to unifying the Republican Party before the convention is Ted Cruz. Let's face it, Sen. Cruz was not my first or even my second choice among this year's crop of Republican candidates.

Bush, the third son of President George H.W. Bush, is a Houston based businessman and founder of the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation. He is a member of national finance team for Republican presidential contender U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz.

The general public forgets.

If someone hadn’t mentioned it here, I would have.

There’s so much information tossed over the transom, that folks move on and these things fade away.

Aren’t you glad you never did anything wrong in the last 40 years.

Cause if you had some Ahole would always be the first to bring it up to try to discredit you.

Donald Trump must be stopped.


Wow, what an amazing campaign platform. Really brings a tear to my eye thinking of all that we can accomplish as a nation.

At this point, who was he suppose to support? Hillary? Bernie? Nope. His choice is either Trump, Cruz, Rubio or Kasich. He chose Cruz. Big Whoop.

Hells Bells we had S&L scandal ridden John McCain as our CANDIDATE in 2008.

Is he just suppose to sit down and shut up?

Well it seems obvious who the “establishment” candidate is now. Fortunately, the establishment is a rudderless ship with Romney at the helm.
