He didn’t articulate his position he read Dr Seuss. What I hate about this process is that someone I respected Ted Cruz is becoming someone I am increasingly negative about. I admired his principles but find they are situational. I was satisfied that he shut down congress at the time because I am so disgusted by both parties.
Now I feel as though in a sense I have grown past that stage. If we elect someone who can’t bring parties together we will have gridlock and all will remain the same. As unsatisfying as it is to work with the Dems at all I think someone like Trump who has relationships with the other side is best able to hammer out solutions that will be in America’s interest.
I find that I am not sure we actually have a true conservative in the race in any case because I do not trust Cruz’s backstory between the donors, the Goldman Sachs connection and his support for 500% increase on H1 Visas. Trump despite warts has many conservative positions on issues I believe are most important and I think he would be able to be elected partially because he is on some issues less conservative than I.
There you go, Cruz is the answer!
I respect your point of view.
He's practically perfect in every way.
Just what was the question? I’m sorry, but someone who held dual citizenship isn’t a born and bred patriot.
Don’t you think the Grey Cup winning Edmonton Eskimos would appreciate a ceremony at the White House?
Lloyd Marcus is the worst human being EVER. We should drag him out and burn him at the stake! How DARE he support someone other than Trump??? DOESN’T HE WANT TO WIN??? Donald Trump is God’s gift to the United States! Tonight, I am going out and getting a giant tattoo of Trump on BOTH biceps. Lloyd Marcus??? I think I’ll tattoo him on my ass where he BELONGS!
And Cruz was born in Canada. What’s your point?
Tell ya what, her voters continue to place her back in that congressional seat and she has done diddly squat for them.
Tells ya lots about the voters in her district.
Never think any politician is the answer, or crony capitalist playing at being a politician.
I sometimes find it hard to believe this is still Free Republic.
And beside that the guy was obviously born stupid, just like Michelle Malkin! We’re those two separated at birth, or what?

>>What’s your point?<<
Seems ya missed it. Duh!
Why cuz everyone is joining your cult? You guys are nuts. Cruz is a nut. You belong together. I hope Trump puts him on the Supreme Court so we don’t have to see him as much anymore. He is probably the Ted Kennedy of the Senate if Trump doesn’t put him on the Court. We’ll never get rid of him. You cultists love him for some reason.
The only reason this is significant is that millions of new voters grew up watching tv and are media savvy. And, let's face it, there aren't a bunch of co-workers at his side talking about how great he is to work with, which might humanize him. If evangelical ministers are his greatest supporters, they should have given him some tips on how to use the camera to market his message better. Like Joel Osteen, maybe he should have learned how to "start with something funny"... And really being funny would have helped make him seem real.
I’m sorry. I should not have hoped for an intelligent conversation about this.

Typical. No substance. Not a surprise.
