Loved it.

I love the father at the end “I believe Donald Trump loves America”

That’s what I don’t get from Cruz or his people. As a middle of the road average Joe, I know the Cruz types will NOT want me around after the election. I don’t carry a bible around with me, I don’t know what 2 or 3 Corintheans are, I don’t send money to televangelists, I don’t care if gays marry (sorry America is f*cked up and you repubs want to worry about this as a top issue?), so I know I am NOT the America that a southern bible thumper will give a hoot about (and probably a majority of you here I reckon).

I don’t get that from Trump. I think he loves America, and Americans plain and simple. No fine print. No *but only if you are a card carrying evangelical*. His broad appeal is to ALL Americans who just want to see America brought back to its former glory. An America we can be proud of again.

I would not be proud to see President Cruz on TV every Sunday giving a sermon from the white house, or lecturing me whenever he could on what his definition of a good person is.

I don’t need another (Obama) lecturer-in-chief telling me HIS definition of American Values, and how wrong mine are, we need a listener-in-chief, and the only reason these other candidates are even PRETENDING to listen to the American people, is because of Trump.

(If I had the slightest inkling on how, I would stick up that picture of all the parrots looking at Trump at the debate).

Watch for ads from the other candidates now on how they are going to crack down on illegals who kill Americans... predictable.

Well said. I agree with you.

Can you point to a single exclusionary or offensive word that has ever come out of the mouth of Ted Cruz? I doubt it, instead you resort to the basest kind of religious bigotry. You hide your bigotry by accusing Cruz of religious fanaticism.

Is there a single constituency that Donald Trump has not yet antagonized? Yet you feel comfortable with Trump and ill at ease with Cruz.

Your entire reply is preposterous.

You are not alone. Lot’s of people share these same thoughts.

I’m afraid you are lost my friend. I would respectfully refer you to what George Washington said and did when elected and at inauguration as 1st President of the United States. I can only speak for myself but I feel I probably speak for many who believe priorities in life are God first THEN Country then Family. Good luck to you my friend.

[Principled]

I’m a Cruz supporter and I am not as you describe. Somebody had filled your head with some crap.

.......at the end the ad, the father says, I beli eve Donald Trump
loves America....That/s what I don/t get from Cruz or his people.

Excellent point.

"I don't like Cruz but I don/t know why," is a frequent FR post.

Cruz seems to be in it to prove something to himself.....maybe its a Canadian-latino/s lack of self-esteem. Who knows? But the presidency is definitely not the place to achieve your human potential.

OTOH, Donald/s soaring acclamation.... WE will make America great Again......speaks to the character of the candidate.

Cruz’s problems originate on K St. and not in church.

[Rusty0604]

I’m a Cruz supporter but it has nothing to do with religion. I think Cruz stands for economic liberty and I trust him with national security while respecting our privacy and liberty.

What in the world are you talking about? Cruz has specifically said that "we're not electing a pastor in chief".

Cruz talks a LOT about the Constitution and the founding father's vision of our country. Why's are you making up this junk out of thin air and attributing it to Cruz.

Question: have you heard Trump even mention the Constitution? Smaller government? No, you haven't, because he hasn't.
