	"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton "We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan "A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792 "It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Ted Cruz Ping!

If you want on/off this ping list, please let me know.

Please beware, this is a high-volume ping list!

I’m not sure being too pro-Israel is the way to go. What the Mideast needs is stability. A totally destabilized Iran would be seriously bad news for everyone but ISIS and Saudi Arabia.

I believe that over the next two years Obama will do everything he can to insure that Iran gets nukes and nothing will be done about it. Just watch.

A real president … would stand up and say on the world stage: Under no circumstances will Iran be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons. Iran will either stop, or we will stop them.”,

How did that policy of appeasement offered to Hitler's Germany work out? If you guessed World War II you are correctamundo.

It's going to take some real leadership to get us out of this mess and avoid another world war situation after Obama leaves office. Our foreign relations are a mess and the support of our allies is declining. Our enemies have been empowered by this administration and our wishy washy foreign policy. Our State department under the leadership of Hillary Clinton and JFnK is a joke to the rest of the world.

I think neither Jeb Bush or Hillary Clinton possess such leadership. Hillary has a proven track record of failure to lead in the Benghazi Incident. Jeb Bush is a RINO and supports much of the current administration policies. And not to forget Mitt Romney, he didn't have the balls to confront Obama or Candy Whatshername on Benghazi during the last presidential election debates.

I think a strong conservative leader like Ted Cruz is our only hope of restoring our leadership in the world. Otherwise, we are screwed!
