Why Conservative Women Are Flocking to Ted Cruz
Charisma Magazine's Charisma Caucus ^ | March 11, 2016 | Bob Eschliman

Penny Young Nance, CEO and president of Concerned Women for America, a recognized national authority on cultural, children's and women's issues, announced from Washington, D.C., on Friday that she is endorsing U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) for president.

"You know, American woman have carried every presidential election since 1964," she said. "I've thought long and hard about who should be our next president. So many issues hang in the balance, the issue of life, marriage, we have between one and maybe four Supreme Court justices that are going to be appointed by the next president."

Nance spoke in front of the White House as she made an endorsement video.

As the head of the nation's largest public policy women's organization, she oversees more than 500,000 participating CWA members across the country. She previously advised the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission on media and social issues and was founder of the Kids First Coalition, a nonprofit organization focused on educating Capitol Hill, the media and the public on a variety of issues related to children.

"I have spent a lifetime working to support conservative principles," she said. "And believe me, I prayed and labored over who I think should be the next president, but today I've made a decision."

Trump simply cannot win against Hillary given his insuperable negatives among women. This is why polls show Hillary beating Trump.

That’s weird.
I’ve been a conservative, registered Republican woman voter my entire adult life, and I don’t have any idea who this person or her group is.

I guess I don’t belong to her church...or something...

The Canadian Cuban is attracting those big-boned, multi-cat women sharing space in a 200-sq ft studio apt.

Polls are worthless 8 months out. Sometimes they re just plain worthless. Polls showed Hillary winning Michigan by 27% the day before the election.

The title did say “Conservative women”, not just women.

Odd.
I’m a woman, and I have managed to persuade most people in my sphere of influence to vote for Trump.

What polls are you referring to?

“All the conservative women I know can’t stand Ted Cruz.”

Do they also love Planned Parenthood and want to fund it? If so, please don’t call them conservatives.

Disagree there. The media is pimping the same old anti-women thing, but...women need and want safety and security for their families.

That doesn’t come from illegals and unemployment, lack of security and safety from marauders.

They liked Ben Carson and think Ted Cruz is sleazy for what Ted did to Ben in Iowa.

“Trump simply cannot win against Hillary given his insuperable negatives among women. “

I do not believe this, I think this is just propaganda by Hillary — Trump is the only opponent she is afraid of, and thinks the best approach is to have Trump NOT be the R nominee.

“Penny Young Nance, CEO and president of Concerned Women for America” is a TERRIFIC endorsement. Concerned Women for America have the smartest women with the highest of morals.
