I’m pretty damn smart (could join MENSA tomorrow) but I’m willing to concede that many people are smarter than I am, sometimes much smarter — for example, Ted Cruz. It’s also clear from his record that Ted Cruz is smarter than almost everyone else in politics, government and the media. Ted Cruz graduated with honors from Princeton and the Harvard Law School, one of whose distinguished professors, Alan Dershowitz, has gone on record to say that Ted Cruz was one of the most brilliant students he ever taught.

Senator Cruz also served as a Appellate AND Supreme Court clerk; was integral in winning Bush v. Gore and Heller, was Texas Solicitor General, came from far behind in the polls to win his Texas Senate seat; and in a matter of little more than a year and a half in Washington has become a front runner for the Republican 2016 presidential nomination, picking up the most coveted Conservative endorsement — Sarah Palin’s — along the way.

Ted Cruz is an expert at winning, and if he thinks he can win the presidency in 2016, who are the rest of us relative mediocrities to disagree with him? [chuckle] After eight years of President Obama, only a towering genius will be able to undo the damage. And Ted Cruz is the only candidate who even remotely qualifies. Rand Paul and Jeb Bush, his principal opponents, are both mediocre products of nepotism; they inherited their father’s supporters.

Do we want a better country or not?

You’re super smart and you love the Cruzer.
That’s fine.
Some of us dumb guys just want a break from lawyers and Ivy Leaguers.

While I’m a Cruz supporter and not a Rand supporter, Rand didn’t inherit a MD from his dad, he went out and earned it.
