Mark’s working on a project. Studying, writing, thinking, and soon he will put the results out there. I believe his conclusion will be that a candidate in 2016 must run on a platform explaining to Americans that liberals, leftists, Democrats (backed by the Media) are dead set on destroying the Constitution.

While I agree that such a conclusion has a lot of validity, I am convinced that the first order of business is to explain to Americans why the Constitution even matters.

We have fallen that far.

I think the next presidential candidate needs to aggressively define the election as a battle between liberty and tyranny -- two words, unfortunately, which have been expunged from the modern American political lexicon by the media, academia and our political culture.

That part of it will be included.

Anyone as smart and informed as Mark Levin and Ted Cruz would not put that out there and fail to explain why the Constitution matters.

Count on it.

But it is also critical, CRITICAL, that people face the truth that there’s a force who has been attacking the Constitution for many years and now they are coming to fruition under this current bunch. And that RINO, SQUISH Republicans have done nothing to stop them and have even helped them along the way.

We have to have the enemy plainly, clearly in our sights.

This is the enemy within America. That is destroying America from within.

It must be portrayed as a battle, which it is. Just to fault ill-informed, apathetic, low information voters for what is happening to Constitutional government wouldn’t be the best way to go. This condition of the masses is for sure enabling the enemy to succeed. But the nub of the threat is that there are forces in America that long ago set out to destroy what made America unique and great, like no other nation, ever.

People must meet the enemy.

They must choose up sides and fight.

And my point was about Ted Cruz being more able than the wonderful Sarah Palin, to explain this and argue this to the American people while himself running for the Oval Office.

Ted Cruz loves Sarah Palin. I believe she will have a very important role in this country, going forward. Just don’t know that it will turn out to be as a presidential candidate. If she were to become our candidate, of course I would support her. And along the way, in primaries, I would never try to harm her candidacy.

I’m just saying why I don’t come out and endorse her for president at this time.
