A vote for Ted Cruz is a wasted vote
Vanity

Posted on 02/20/2016 3:37:45 AM PST by JLAGRAYFOX

A vote cast for Ted Cruz in the South Carolina POTUS Primary is a wasted vote because Ted Cruz will never be elected POTUS under any circumstances. Here are ten compelling reasons why South Carolina voters should shun Ted Cruz and defeat him with a massive loss:

- Ben Carson clearly states that Ted Cruz is a lie teller.

- Marco Rubio clearly states that Ted Cruz is a lie teller.

- Donald J. Trump clearly states the Td Cruz is a serial lie teller.

- Glenn Beck, an unbalanced religious nutcase has endorsed Ted Cruz.

- Ted Cruz will get few African-American votes

- Ted Cruz will get few Hispanic votes.

- Ted Cruz will get few industrial Labot Union member votes.

- Ted Cruz is the weakest "crossover" vote getter in the GOP.

- Ted Cruz will get few minority votes.

- Ted Cruz has not gotten one endorsement from all of his peers the Senate.

I could go on and on commenting on the Cruz or Surrogate negative ads, but if you do not now get the point...you are lost at sea. In addition, Ted Cruz is cold hearted and will do anything legal or illegal to get his way!!! And....Remember, voting for Ted Cruz destroys the future of our great American Republic, because Ted Cruz will lose to any Democrat he faces!!! The choice is yours....voters of South Carolina!!!

Wait- what? What flag ad?

All the allegations of Cruz’s lies & dishonesty are more than just other candidates’ claims. There is concrete proof.

If Cruz manages to worm his way into the WH, regret is an understatement. This is WAY worse than a typical dirty politician & him acting like a little chickensh#t.

When have we ever had a candidate do this kind of stuff right out in the open like this? And then lie about it some more & try to rationalize it.

Talk about not being able to buy or sell without the ‘’mark’’. . . And ISIS beheading people. . .
People BETTER Get Informed & Wake Up..

My cat wants to know how not to waste her vote. She wants a wall to keep out the dogs. But the Pope won’t let her.

if you do not now get the point...

I get the point.

And you are proving Ted Cruz’s point.

All the other candidates fear Ted Cruz.

Choose Cruz

That’s funny as hell. All 3 of his accusers are serial liers but you think their hyperbolic accusations make Cruz unwinnable.

How very nice of you.

But I must try.

Yes ... we ... can!

My cat will vote for my parrot. My parrot won’t build a wall. The Pope’s happy. Cat is dead. Parrot safe in cage. Problem solved.

Oh wait, I don’t have a parrot.

I’m not a Cruz supporter, but I find your post to be quite offensive, both in terms of its tone and its content, frankly.

The only wasted vote is one that doesn’t represent you.

“Each of you, for himself, by himself and on his own responsibility, must speak. And it is a solemn and weighty responsibility, and not lightly to be flung aside at the bullying of pulpit, press, government, or the empty catchphrases of politicians. Each must for himself alone decide what is right and what is wrong, and which course is patriotic and which isn’t. You cannot shirk this and be a man. To decide against your convictions is to be an unqualified and inexcusable traitor, both to yourself and to your country, let man label you as they may. If you alone of all the nation shall decide one way, and that way be the right way according to your convictions of the right, you have done your duty by yourself and by your country — hold up your head! You have nothing to be ashamed of.”

- Mark Twain

“When you become entitled to exercise the right of voting for public officers, let it be impressed on your mind that God commands you to choose for rulers ‘just men who will rule in the fear of God.’ The preservation of a republican government depends on the faithful discharge of this duty. If the citizens neglect their duty and place unprincipled men in office, the government will soon be corrupted; laws will be made not for the public good so much as for the selfish or local purposes; corrupt or incompetent men will be appointed to execute the laws; the public revenues will be squandered on unworthy men; and the rights of the citizens will be violated or disregarded. If a republican government fails to secure public prosperity and happiness, it must be because the citizens neglect the divine commands, and elect bad men to make and administer the laws.”

— Noah Webster

“Impress upon children the truth that the exercise of the elective franchise is a social duty of as solemn a nature as man can be called to perform; that a man may not innocently trifle with his vote; that every elector is a trustee as well for others as himself and that every measure he supports has an important bearing on the interests of others as well as on his own. “

— Daniel Webster

Cruz is okay, I just think Trump is better, and would be the kind of president we need right now. His strengths are why you vote for him, not so much the Cruz negatives (and there are some).

Vote Trump!

ah ok I get it.. Your being sarcastic...

I am not...

His competitors cannot run as more conservative than him, so what are they doing? Slandering his character. Cruz isn’t perfect, but he is a good man, and would make an incredible president.

VOTE TED CRUZ!!! VOTE TED CRUZ!!!

Here’s how to make the case for Trump.

What I like about Trump. Three things ...

1. He unites patriots. Doesn’t matter how uninformed a voter is, a low-info patriot gravitates toward Trump during moments like this Pope-and-Wall moment.

In a couple years, those low info patriots would transform into informed patriots. His popularity [if he goes back to his November campaign style] would also make him powerful on the bully pulpit, especially when he combines that with ‘Art of the Deal’.

2. Executive experience. There is only one president in US history who walked into the White House with more executive experience than Trump. That was Ike, commander of the Allies in Europe. Some might say Washington had more exec experience than Trump. Arguably true. Just one or arguably two.

3. Trump’s Art of the Deal is exactly what we need in trade talks and getting international corporations to return here to the US. For example ... Obama’s oil tax idea, $10 per barrel. Trump would instead use that concept as leverage to get lower tariffs of US exports to oil exporting nations. Rather than tax all oil producers, he would threaten tariffs and get oil exporters to comply with whatever.

He would also threaten to carpet bomb Iran’s oil because the world doesn’t need Iran’s oil any more. Iran would need to dance to his tune or get taken out completely.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The only president who started off with more executive experience than Trump was Ike. If somene adds Washington to that list, I would not dispute it, but that is how rare his expierence is. And he’s proven to be a top notch executive.

Trump and Islamic No-Go Zones in England

Five police officers claim Donald Trump is RIGHT about parts of London being so radicalised

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3370457/posts

Serving police officers today backed Donald Trump’s claim that some Muslim communities in the UK are no-go areas because of extremism. Several Met officers have said the ‘Islamification’ of some parts of the capital requires ‘extra vigilance’ and they can’t wear uniforms for safety reasons - despite Scotland Yard claiming the tycoon ‘couldn’t be more wrong’. Home Secretary Theresa May tonight rejected Mr Trump’s claims, insisting: ‘The police in London are not afraid to go out and police the streets.’

The US presidential contender caused worldwide consternation yesterday after a string of incendiary remarks about Muslims, including in Britain ... [snip]

" an unbalanced religious nutcase"

And Trump and in particular, his vulger, and unbalanced Alinskyite supporters, will permanently fracture the GOP conservatives, thus guaranteeing half sit home in November.

Trump will run against a Democrat machine which will come fully loaded with everything you've never heard about Trump. If Trump can destroy a good man like Cruz via character assassination, imagine what the Democrat left can do to Trump with 30 years of his history available to tap.

This will NOT work out how you expect it to. True conservatives will never subscribe to "the ends justifies the means" and ##WINNING". If some conservatives sat home for Romney and McCain (as the GOP-e has consistently claimed in their losses), how in the world do you expect them to jump on the Trump 767 and happily ride it all the way to the White House. Are Cruz, Carson, or Rubio going to say "it's all right, folks, Donald was just funnin' ya all for the election, WE ENDORSE THE DONALD"?

It ain't gonna happen. Trump folks are just dreaming.

Do you understand that Trump will never be president either? We’ve all screamed for years for a Conservative, held our noses and voted for McCain, Romney,Dole,Bush 1.Not again! Not because we think we want to be on the winning side.
Trump has higher UNFAVORABLE numbers than Cruz. Hundreds of thousands will not vote for Trump. Myself included.
We’ll have Sanders as president.
Mark my words.

A vote using ethics, conscience, and conviction is NEVER a wasted vote.

That being said, I am not voting for any Republican.
