Right now, we need a leader who will take charge and accomplish what needs to be done. I will take a proven executive who puts competent people in the right positions. Now is not the time for a junior senator with zero executive experience whose only claim to "conservative fame" is that he says the things that we want to hear when being interviewed.

I am not saying that he is not a conservative. I am saying that he is a non-accomplished conservative. We don't have the luxury or time to take Mark Levin, Glen Beck, and other Ivy League geniuses word for how great of a job Cruz would do.

Having served only three years in the Senate should not give anyone confidence. Look at the last junior senator that was elected.

Lets look at the example you posted,prior to Obama becoming a Senator he was nothing more than a sleazy hollow street organizer hustler. As just one example before Cruz became a Senator he was the Director of Planning at the Federal Trade Commission,Associate Deputy Attorney General at the United States Department of Justice,Solicitor General of Texas and also an adjunct Professor teaching US Supreme Court Litigation so i would really have to say it’s way out in left field to remotely compare Cruz in any manner imaginable.

Carter was the last governor who served as President before Reagan. The man’s character, values and beliefs mean much more than what their last job was.
