Keep in mind Cruz is only 44, while Trump is 69

Can you imagine? Ted will only be 52 in 2024, after having (hopefully) served a long eight years as Vice President under the Trumpinator.

If he's elected President in 2024 (how could he not?), he'd just be reaching 60 after two full terms at the top.

After that sixteen year rein, this country would be in better shape than any living person has ever seen.

Please, dear God, let it be so.

Oh precisely because a good university is a terrible thing to go to.

Don’t mention it to Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Robert Bork, Anton Scalia....need I continue?

I definitely believe Cruz is shooting for VP under Trump at this point.
*************************
I believe that Cruz at VP would be a gross misapplication of his talents and potential. He would be a great Prez or SCOTUS Justice! ....He has the creds for the latter, for sure!

I suppose you are correct. Securing the nomination is important. I just can’t wait for the fight against Mrs Slickmeister. If each candidate lobbed five different attacks on her, there would be 50 issues she would have to defend herself against. She would have a mountain to dig out of at a time when she is trying to get to the convention.

I wish the candidates would blow their race to the White House wide open with an attack not on each other, but an attack on Hillary Clinton.

No...too direct

Trump already attacked and ridiculed Humma Abedin - Weiner (as surrogate for Hillary

Expect same treatment directed at Valerie Jarrett (as surrogate for Obama)...could be security....iranian connections....

...maybe the failed real estate deal where VJ brought up a big swath of depressed Chicago real estate in anticipation of building the Chicago Olympic Games on it.

Somehow, I still can’t believe that Trump is serious.

OTOH, there seems to be some sort of understanding between Trump and Cruz. That gives me hope that Trump has some sort of plan—whether he goes for the WH or not—for the good of the country.

...Dallas County Community College...
**************************
lol... I knocked out 40 hrs. at El Centro night school in the late ‘60s, before moving from Dallas Co. to Tarrant Co.

Community Colleges should not be overlooked. I eventually ended up with an AAS, BBA and MBA, after 208 hrs. of credit.

Thanks to Veteran benefits for getting to my BBA (160 hrs.)!

I don’t say these things to be bragging, but instead to tout how Community Colleges can really open a person’s eyes to potential. I was a poor student in public school, joined Naval Air Reserve early in Sr. year and went active duty 4 months after HS. ....Married and with little daughter 5 years after active duty, doing low paying work, but forced myself to go to Community College. ...Paid off in long run!

Trump is 6’3”. Cruz is smaller than I thought.
*****************************
Ted’s dad is Cuban. Other than Teofilo Stevens from Cuba, I believe MOST Cubans are not very tall. ....For the youngsters here... Teofilo was a heavyweight boxer. Most likely had an Anglo father, based on surname.

Does he deal with the REAL basics—like having REAL money instead of fiat toilet paper?

Trump's Wharton School of Business ain't chump change. It's the Ivy League of business schools and Trump's no Midwesterner.

He's as East Coast as they come.

And a lot smarter than the Pope and all the toady bishops who are mouthing the Pope’s lies about “climate.”

Trump went to Wharton—as in Penn, as in the Ivy League.
