“The new campaign manager Manafort is Stone’s law partner.”

I did not know that. Thanks for the info.

They sure as heck did fall in line with Reagan. Did anyone try to run against Reagan in the ‘84 primary?

Rafael Ted Cruz born in Canada is in the pockets of his Billionaire sugar daddy's. IOW they are his pimps. Cruz has flip flopped on so many issues, he is totally untrusTED. Watch his flip flops here on recorded video's. Video's are for ever. Trump is correct in calling him Lying Ted.

Cruz pushing Path to Legal Status for ALL Illegals

Cheap Foreign Workers on H1-B visa

Pushing TPP

Pushing import of Syrian Refugees

Video's do not lie. Believe Your Lyin Eyes!

You're buy too much of what Ted has been telling you.

Nope, nobody needed to tell me anything. I've been following his career closely since he started in the Senate and saw all this happen with my own eyes. The Trumpsters' attempts to rewrite history hold no water with me. I know what everyone said would happen in the mid-terms during the shutdown and then I know what I saw actually happen and why people said they voted Republican that year.

I was naturally skeptical of Cruz at first when he was first elected and then learned over time that he was a genuine conservative. I've been praying he would run for President since he did the Obamacare filibuster. I met him in Philadelphia 2 years ago, shook his hand and promised I'd back him if he decided to run.

Cruz ONLY "understands" the law and the Constitution, when it doesn't harm him; then he makes up whatever he wants to and claims that as fact.

Cruz the CANADIAN is NOT a rah rah PATRIOTIC AMERICAN at all; Trump is!

Cruz neither knows nor understand anything about finances, American military history/great generals and what they did, nor getting rid of Obama's EOs. He doesn't know any foreign leaders, foreign laws, business law, or how to behave in society !

There is NOTHING whatsoever, that marks him out as even READY, in any possible way, to be president!

Teddy isn't conservative in the way that Reagan was!

Rush Limbaugh says otherwise. Cruz is actually a more lifelong and consistent conservative than Reagan was. He was never a Democrat and he's been backing Republicans since he was in his teens. I also trust that all his Supreme Court picks will be as good as Reagan did with Scalia and Rehnquist with none of the dogs like O'Connor and Kennedy.

“So the fact that Cruz got 43% is really not impacted by fact that ballots are all pre-printed with all candidates.”

Yes. It wasn’t like there were 12 candidates.

There were five.

Now there are three.

Getting 44% in a five man race is like getting 74% in a three man race.

So Trump pretty needs to get that to show similar dominance in his home state.

Yes but it is already widely acknowledged that our good friend Rush has been instructed to go in the Tank for Teddy by his handlers.

Yes.
Rush has handlers.

I’ve long since lost count of all the unfounded conspiracy theories the Trumpster camp has had to come up with to justify his candidacy.

That's NOT what your original post implied and this one is also banal and dumb!

Were you even an ADULT and working, when Reagan ran in 1980? And FYI....usually, NOBODY runs in a primary, against a SUCCESSFUL first term president in the next election cycle!

Just two words....YOU'RE NUTS!

Your constant lies are silly!

Most FR posters pay at least as much time reading news/watching speeches, etc. as you do; many a great deal MORE time and you can twist and turn and strangle the FACTS all you care to, but it just won't make it so.

He (Cruz) can imitate all he wants but his heart is in the wrong place

It's disturbing. Cruz can say something outrageous and contradictory about his own situation and resume, and that's all he does....stir the pot. I haven't heard a word from him for MONTHS about how HE'D Make America Great. Why? He wouldn't. Cruz has neither vision nor deeply held belief in changes that would have to be made in order to bring the US around. Pompous self-righteousness such as Cruz exhibits never works well.

I'm sick of the Cruzers and this delegate situation. Any true US patriot knows that fundamental to our core is a sense of fair play. Trump gave Cruz so much opportunity for that. Instead Cruz and his minions suck the system dry with every dirty trick and gaming the system to twist it away from respecting US voters. It's contradictory by about 180 degrees to the values that Trump strives to restore.

Also fundamental to US core values is that when someone screws you over, you fight back and you fight back to WIN. Cruz has to be stopped, and I'm okay with if it takes a VP candidate who's suspended his campaign with over 170 delegates for a first ballot victory, then so be it.

When he was born, both of his parents were not American citizens. They HAD to be. Ted was not born in America.
He is KNOWN TO HAVE had Canadian citizenship until just a few months ago... a citizenship which he had to renounce when the good folks in Texas found out he was not a pure American. He failed to disclose it.

Until about 20 mos ago, he was actually a Canadian.
HE CANNOT be president, we will find out, clearly if he is the nominee. The Democrats will fight and win in every possible venue to block him... and they will win in more than enough states that the PEOPLE will not accept Ted on the ballot in those states... and they should not.
WHY?

Because if anyone is not born here in the USA or on US soil, and if both of their parents were not Americans when that one was born... That one cannot be president or in Succession for that office of president.

It is not legal. And that is what the courts will rule GUARANTEED. and it will come up with Cruz... GUARANTEED.

If open NBC status were anywhere anytime with just one parent, then there are thousands of grandchildren in South Vietnam whose parents are Americans, just because their grandfather was an American... and that one parent Anywhere, anytime would automatically transfer that status to their line offspring, from each generation to the next.

The founders NEVER intended such individuals with divided legal status and dubious loyalties to be eligible for election to the office of president of the USA.

Ted knows this. But does NOT care because being a legal scholar and all, he thinks he can twist the constitution to get in the door, just like Obama did.

And people who try to point that out, over and over again... are not ill, they are just tired of trying to give sight to those who are intentionally and willingly blind.

Ted will not be president... but he could have been on the Supreme Court, had he just been patient. He’s not. He wont be, so it is pretty much just going through the motions until he is finally rejected at some level.

Rush is a MORON and IF you are getting your news from him and Levin, then you're in great trouble!

I've been backing GOPers since I was a small child and actually working in local, state, and federal campaigns since I was a teen! THAT MAKES ME MORE CONSERVATIVE THAN TEDDY AND I GUESS, REAGAN TOO. LOL

Roberts was Teddy's SCOTUS pick! WHAT A PICK....HAD TWO CHANCES TO END OBAMACARE AND DIDN'T DO IT! And Roberts has made other bad choices lately as well! Teddy will just pick his BFF; NOT someone who will make GREAT Justices!

Really? How on earth would YOU know how I am?

I'm fine, far better informed than you'll EVER be, and that projection complex of yours just might get you killed one day.
