There’s a reason I don’t endorse Sarah Palin now - well, three. Ted Cruz is one of them. Another is that I don’t know what Rick Perry might do and the third is I don’t know if Sarah is going to run.
Did anyone hear Mark Levin say that he hopes his friend Cruz does decide to run in 2016? Mark loves Sarah Palin. Sarah announced she was not running in 2012 by calling Mark to tell him on air. So Mark is not opposed to her. What he is, is thinking that the legal knowledge and communication skills of a Ted Cruz are what is needed to save the country.
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. And RINO Republicans are aiding and abetting them, knowingly or not.
Ted Cruz is uniquely prepared to run on that platform and carry that banner.
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.
I think you are right and a ticket with Palin and Cruz in either order would be fantastic. Hopefully, neither will be corrupted by that prospect. I only say that because it seems that when you whisper "president" in some ones ear, they start getting whacked out ideas of what they need to do to win. Take Rubio and Paul for example. I hope Cruz is solid enough to resist. I suspect he is.
This is precisely where I am. I believe Sarah made it clear last time that she isn't interested in running, and I haven't heard anything different from her. And I'm glad to hear of Mark's support for Cruz.
BUT, as I was told here very recently, we haven't seen Cruz's birth certificate, and we are only taking his word that he is a citizen. It's a plot, you see. /s
