As we approach the first caucuses and primaries, I am happy to say that there is a candidate I am supporting. And that is Sen. Ted Cruz, a true social and constitutional conservative--and a brilliant one, at that. Sen. Cruz "gets" the Constitution and would be guided by it in his governance: limiting the reach and powers of the federal government; nominating solid Supreme Court justices; cutting spending; cutting taxes; and protecting our nation against terrorism. Sen. Cruz is a committed and consistent conservative: pro-life; pro-marriage; and protecting our religious liberty. Ted Cruz is one of the best candidates I've seen in decades. In fact, I even sent a donation today to his campaign (tedcruz.org), that's how much I support his candidacy.
Also, I want to make clear there is a candidate I do NOT support, and that is Donald Trump. Trump is not a conservative, I don't trust him for a minute, and as a candidate he is an absolute embarrassment. I hope he does not get the nomination, because I don't know if I could hold my nose tightly enough to be able to pull the lever for him.
