we have to question people who want to vote for the same style of candidate and expect a different result.

I'll take your ignorantly projected cynicism as opposed to willful delusion.

How does a supporter "project cynicism?" Or are you claiming to be willfully deluded?

If you're going to answer a post, at least understand the meaning of the words you use.

Questions of integrity mean much more when they don't come from a functional illiterate.

In all fairness, I DO believe Cruz is a different breed of cat, and most of the evangelical cynics are Cruz supporters.

Unfortunately, Cruz supporters are absolutely deaf to the message that he doesn't have the media savvy to break out of the blockade the press has imposed on him since the week after he entered the race.

As I’ve said before, I fully share your opinion of Cruz.

I only disagree on his viability.

But in terms of policy, it isn't just that some conservatives haven't read Hayek.

Salma?

It’s a well worn groove, now. “Trump is out for himself” and “if you can’t see that, you’re stupid.


I don’t believe that.. Trump is out to DENY Ted Cruz the Presidency..
A crony capitalist ringer.. simply..

He didnt want/or need to do it(run) (as he says) but indeed a Cruz Presidency would be curtains for the CRONY’s..

ALL or many of them are his friends being a child of inheritance.. friends of the people THAT OWN America..
or friends of their friends.. the farmers on the ANIMAL FARM..

And does not want things to change AT THE TOP of the HEAP...
Ted Cruz threatens THAT.. things would really change under Cruz..

Making America GREAT Again for everybody BUT INDEED NOT threatening the MANAGERS AT THE TOP of the heap..

Cruz would bring DOWN the Crony’s.. and many would be facing PRISON for sedition.. in a new Justice Department..

With Cruz everybody would be EQUAL again.. ZERO special ones at the TOP of the HEAP.. LIKE NOW..

TRUMP has always been SPECIAL... he was born special with special rights/privileges... to a connected father..
THAT MUST STOP.. by getting rid of the federal reserve..
and/or a laundry list of laws passed after that..

Expecting TRUMP to STOP IT.. by stone dyslexics will not happen..

** Stone dyslexics->> conservatives that support Trump..

So you’re saying Trump is out for the status quo?

How does that make sense? He could have stayed out of it and that would have been the result by default.

You have to believe Cruz could secure the nomination on his own then win the election for that to work, and that’s just something I can not believe.

AND I don’t HATE Donald Trump.. just do not want him near the Presidency.. maybe the Cabinet where he can be watched.. you know monitored..

IF...... he is serious about FIXing America he would do it..
If not than the Cabinet is much to low level for him.. and he would deny it..
Which by the way would EXPOSE all I have said of him..

Hope he accepts and makes me WRONG.. but doubt it..
TRUMP as President is too horrible to conceive..

A right-wing Barry Obama is the exact same thing as a left-wing Barry Obama.. i.e. Congress being the fly in the ointment..

it’s like the difference between Socialism and Fascism..
SAME thing only different..

You mean believe or WANT to happen..

Cruz is raising the most money from small doners AND
is extremely VIABLE...

Surely you know POLLS are agitprop..
If Cruz voters are never POLLed they are non existent..
Or POlled in a “managed” way..

Most people Even on Free republic are too damned LAZY
to go to You Tube and see many of his speeches..
So he is tagged with bullshit opinions..

Trump has support from the Crony’s AND many of the smarter democrats(privately).. If it got out democrats supported him many conservatives would have second thoughts..

going whats up with that?.. except the true believers in Trump..
they are into celebrity worship.. mode..

My opinion of Cruz’s viability comes from his Mainstream Media presence, not some misunderstanding of his policies.

Your position is analogous to the VHS vs. BetaMax contest. No one who has any understanding of the two formats disputes the superiority of BetaMax from the technical aspect.

What caused VHS to shut out BetaMax was superior marketing. And contrary to what any may like to think, that superior marketing does not constitute “laziness” on the part of video tape consumers.

Say that three times to a mirror and then go back and and attempt to read what I posted again; you might even understand it, if you try, really hard.

I was giving you the courtesy of presuming your post grounded in projected cynicism instead of attributing it to delusion.

I must have been mistaken.

I read it just fine. The problem was with what you wrote.

Funny, I was selling them and those issues never came up.

I see so you do not know what the problem IS...

i think i do.. our constitution requires an intelligent, informed, moral, diligent population. sans that the system doesn’t work. it’s not a top down system.

It is all very well that people with no insurance were admitted to hospitals and stabilized there, but costs are a lot lower if treatment is given regularly by a clinic, HMO or regular GP. So long as hospitals are required by law to give emergency care, then government IS in health care.

I like your $10,000 deductible catastrophic insurance coverage. While we are at it why not remove the first $10,000 in interest paid each year from the IRS 1040 form. This would encourage people to invest in interest paying stocks for the long term, and help stabilize the market.

Does anyone think it is rather unChristian for big pharma to be earning 20% profits on the backs of the sick and desperate, while most companies have a 3% to 7% profit margin? I wonder what the profit margin is on Trump’s businesses?
