I’m curious to know why you think he would be a MUCH better president than Reagan, if you don’t mind sharing.
I think Cruz is more solid on the issues than RR. Reagan while overall a good President did two huge disservices to the nation. Firstly, he passed amnesty for illegals which is the inspiration for recent pushes for same. Secondarily he put a flaming liberal on the court which resulted in incredible damage to the Republic (Kennedy is more or less solely responsible for homosexual marriage in this nation, also he is the vote that keep abortion legal).
Ted Cruz will be a better President than Ronald Reagan because he has the benefit of hindsight, because he is extraordinarily sharp and quick in perceiving threats to the Constitution and in devising responses and solutions.
I read that Ted Cruz’ father was instrumental in his primary and secondary education encouraging him to join debate societies where he was required to memorize the US Constitution and to study its rich and inspired history. Ted Cruz became a debate champion at Princeton and a stellar law student at Harvard.
Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz had this to say about Ted Cruz:

Not many people realize how smart, witty and quick Ronald Reagan was but Ted Cruz surpasses RR in these attributes.
Now being smart is not a guarantee that a person will be a great or even wise leader. Wise and great leadership also requires being quick and accurate in response. An example of Ted Cruz’ incredible response speed:

and there are so so many more examples.
