Although I have admired both men for years I have come to the conclusion that Mark Levin and, to a lesser extent, Dennis Prager are doing serious and perhaps irreversible damage to our Republic.

As I consider neither man a fool, they must know that Ted Cruz, the candidate they support passionately and consistenly, will fail as the Republican nominee for president this election cycle. While I admire and, in many respects, agree with their points and concerns regarding the presumptive nominee (Donald Trump) by their persistent and vicious attacks on Trump they are making it extremely difficult for a Cruz supporter to vote for Trump when, as is likely, Trump becomes the Republican nominee.

Although Prager has said repeatedly that if this is so he will not hesitate to vote for Trump rather than, directly or tacitly, provide support to whichever socialist candidate the Democrats run. But while Prager may have the intellectual honesty and strength to do so, hundreds -- perhaps thousands -- of his loyal listeners, after hearing Prager disparrage Trump unmercifully over the past several months, will not do so. They will instead withhold their vote and not vote for the Republican candidate (Trump), effectively rewarding the socialist Democrat.

Levin (and for that matter, Ben Shapiro) have taken this a step further. Both men have said they will never and under no circumstance vote for Donald Trump. This disgraceful position not only undermines their credibility as conservatives -- yes, Mark, I said conservatives -- it shows clearly they have replaced reason with emotion (i.e., their hatred of Donald Trump), preferring instead that a socialist democrat become president. (As an aside, their hatred is not just limited to Donald Trump. It is clear from their words and actions that Levin and Shapiro despise their fellow citizens -- including many conservatives -- who dare disagree or take offense at their "intellectual superiority". In a sense, this is not much different than the Democrat or Republican Party elites who are convinced they know what is best for American citizens ... that they are our "betters" and how dare we take exception to their "superior wisdom".

Until recently, I would never have believed these two men -- Levin and Shapiro -- would hate someone so much that they would be prepared to sacrifice our republic -- to subject liberty-loving Americans to another four to eight years of socialist elitism.

I condemn your actions, Mark Levin and Ben Shapiro, and I am profoundly disappointed in the actions of a normally wise and respectful man, Dennis Prager.

Regardless of your ideals and inability to constrain your emotions, how dare you three influential Americans turn your back on so very many of your fellow conservatives ... on your fellow Americans ... and on the preservation of our American Republic and our Constitution.

Levin, Prager, Shapiro, and Limbaugh are searching for the perfect Conservative; unfortunately that person does not exist, President Reagan came close, but still no cigar.
Ted Cruz would be my Conservative pick for the Oval Office; but unfortunately, even against a criminal like Shrillary he would get trounced in the general election.
Senator Cruz has made too many enemies; both inside Washington, the GOPE and the general electorate. In short, he terrifies the so called gopE conservative establishment and the wild eyed socialists, undecideds, and gimmeedats.
Ted Cruz would lose the general election in what the presstitutes would call a HISTORIC REFUTATION OF CONSERVATIVE VALUES AND A GREAT VICTORY FOR LIBERAL POLICIES.
Trump on the other hand can defeat (I hope) whatever COMMUNIST the democrats want to shove down our throats this election.
Trump is not a Conservative, at least in my definition of the concept of conservativeism; but if he wins the primary, he is an electable candidate who is not a LUNATIC who’s only wish is to destroy this nation and it’s economy.
Trump is not the best of choices, but he is certainly not the worst.
I am a Ted Cruz type of person, but I will vote for TRUMP if the choice is between him and the financial ruin of our country.
