And not just the media.

I wonder how many could have invited Medea Benjamin of Code Pink to the front of the crowd for an impromptu debate and left her stammering and apologizing to Ted Cruz for interrupting him. She even ended up calling him a patriot.

The dude’s a master. Not in a bombastic way, of course. But in a classy, subdued way. I prefer substance over appearance.

cripplecreek, I'm so glad you brought this up. I don't want to give anyone the idea that Cruz handles all disrupting protesters in the manner he did with Code Pink in that incident, because he certainly does not. Cruz is not one to tolerate rude behavior.

However, Cruz was thrust into a situation literally face-to-face with rabid leftist protesters from Code Pink and there were no security staff to remove them from the outdoor gathering. The way Cruz calmly and firmly controlled the situation was amazing. I have to say that was the most extraordinary demonstration of logic, facts and courtesy triumphing over rude, uninformed leftists. I haven't seen the likes of it ever from a public figure.

I was enthralled by this video that captured the confrontation from beginning to end. >>> Ted Cruz Takes Down Code Pink Hecklers on Iran
