This is good. If Ted Cruz wins the nomination, I will vote for president. If not, I won’t.. I will just vote for the state and local candidates. He is the only serious candidate in the race. I like a lot of what Donald Trump has to say, but I just don’t feel any trust for him as yet. I like Walker, but he seems to be fading
