She has steadfastly and brilliantly supported Israel in places of hostility such as England and in doing so she has fought a fight not just for Israel but for liberty and she has uncompromisingly resisted Islamic tyranny at great risk to their academic standing and physical safety.
Often embattled as she fights on behalf of Israel, she also fights our corner. Her perceptions about the three candidates are spot on because her perceptions about the state of our nation and culture are so undeniably true.
By way of full disclosure, I have often stated my opinion that America is overextended on behalf of Israel for incommensurate gain as we are in many places around the world but even if there were no Israel, Melanie Phillips' observations concerning Ted Cruz would still obtain in full force.
Cruz is as Melanie states. His weaknesses on trade and immigration, corporatism and NAU are RINO like. Trump does say he will defend Christians. He does see the Islam issue. He loves America and the hurting middle class. He sees the trade issues as destroying the country,where Cruz supports more of them.
Just do not think Cruz as he is above is really a conservative.
