With the Republican Party’s primary now front and center and getting daily headlines and front-page articles in the media, it is past time that Miami learns more about Ted Cruz — the other senator of Cuban descent running for president.

I had every reason to support Senator Rubio instead — he is a well-liked local Republican and my colleague on the faculty at Florida International University (he teaches politics, while I teach business).

I don’t agree with this at all.

If you discount the Trump supporters - and at this point it is clear that anyone supporting Trump is simply not a conservative - nearly everyone here supports Ted.
