Right! Not everyone in the Republican Party is a Conservatives conservative some of US are fiscal Conservatives, social moderates, America First, Strong Military or just leave US the hell alone already type of voters! I’m getting really sick of this purity test bandied around here:-)

Will Ted Cruz BUILD A WALL? I doubt it!

Cruz has been committed to a wall since 2012 -- well before Trump discovered the structure.

Trump doesn’t even know what American Exceptionalism means. In fact, the only person in the race who understands what it means is probably Ted Cruz.

Done over and over everywhere around the country that he has a rally. I was at the one in Raleigh last year. 7K inside and 2K outside!

Loving the Bible has little to do with choosing a strong leader with the courage and stamina to turn this nation around-—we are not choosing a Pope (thank God) or a disciple but a human being who is patriotic and a truth teller——cheers

What is BS? The actual quote from Trump’s book?
Be careful before you begin throwing insults around.

Because they all love that Rick solid conservative Mitch McConnell.

I am so done with the political class I can’t stand them.

Doing the same thing over and over again is insanity.

Trump can reach the independents and cross-overs that Cruz can't.

That is a critical point! I live in a rust belt swing state. Most folks I talk to fit the Reagan Democrat profile. And most are excited about Trump. But no one talks about Cruz. Heck, few of them even know who Cruz is.

If anyone but Trump gets the GOP nomination, those folks will drift back to pulling the (D) level, just like their grandparents did.

Note that I'm making no argument about Trump's ideology. I'm just saying he's got lots of good mojo going for him in my neck of the woods.

Yes. In fact he put his intent to build a wall I writing several years prior to trump changing his position on immigration to build a wall.

I think Ted Cruz not being liked by the GOPee is a “beard” to cover the fact that he is deep in bed with them.

His whole career? As Texas SS? As the guy who won fundamental conservative cases before the U.S. Supreme Court? As candidate for U.S. Senate against Dewhurst (the scorched-earth Chamber of Commerce's man)? As the guy who called out the Senate majority leader as in bed with the Democrats?

Is that hat tinfoil, or titanium?

Trump won’t unite anybody. Not with the rhetoric and the language he’s spewing from his mouth on a daily basis.

And yet, Trump DOES motivate more people to vote for him than Cruz does...

It seems to me that one would need divine inspiration to make a presidential race with the odds being so much in favor of inferior candidates.

Viguerie cited not only the traditional three legs of the Republican stool represented by Reagan — fiscal, social conservatism and national security — but added the Tea Party component, an emerging Libertarian wing and, finally, the GOP establishment. Unlike Trump, or any of the establishment candidates, Viguerie sees Cruz winning the White House handily in November given his ability to unite all six factions.

He lacks the Establishment leg right now, but they will come around, especially if it means Bernie or Hillary.

Any conservative who doesn’t know Richard Viguere, should.
He has been fighting the conservative fight since pre-Goldwater. He is in his 80’s now.

I heard the whole interview on Breitbart radio this morning. I really liked it. People should try to find the whole interview.
Then again, I am a Cruz supporter so I would have liked the interveiw.
