Ted Cruz Is Strong for 2016

For 2016, Republicans are understandably worried about Hillary Clinton’s massive political machine and finding the right candidate to win the White House.

But Republicans are fortunate in the high caliber of the pool of candidates when it comes to a potential nominee. The national swelling ranks of successful governors and national leaders from various backgrounds present us with some great options.

Ted Cruz leads the best of the best. Cruz would not only make a great president but would also be the best and strongest option to defeat Hillary Clinton.

Hillary Clinton in 2016 is the most invincible political force since Hillary Clinton in 2008, as they said then and now say again. Undoubtedly, she is, and will be, a formidable candidate whose chameleon-style campaign will be attractive to many and dangerous to our country.

Ted Cruz has the ability to build and attract a coalition that will be vibrant beyond just expanding our grass-roots conservative turnout.

Cruz is a leader who is not afraid to stand on principle, speak out for what he believes and ruffle more than a few feathers when it comes time to standing up and fighting for the future of our Republic and everything that has made America the greatest country in the history of mankind.

He’s the candidate many in the mainstream media and Washington chattering class love to hate. He is demonized by many while revered by so many more throughout the heartland of America. He speaks his mind, stands his ground and is willing to fight the fight.

Cruz is grounded by a loving family, his Christian faith, his conservative principles and a moral compass that is all too often lacking in political life.

"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton

 

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan

 

"A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792

 

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams

 

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Cruz can articulate the conservative positions by communicating well with all of us.

He will destructify any debate opponent.

He is going to get my money and my time when he declares.

Unlike in 1980 when at least the GOP rallied behind Reagan, Cruz will be fighting with at least half of the GOP along with the RATs.

Cruz/Lee and draft Palin as RNC chairman (she is a natural money maker) and you have a winning combination.

Just my 2 cents worth.

Cruz needs to get an early ruling from Congress whether he is eligible so they can’t drop the bomb on him later. An early ruling is also likely to be in his favor since the Dems think he is beatable.

Unlike in 1980 when at least the GOP rallied behind Reagan, Cruz will be fighting with at least half of the GOP . . .

It's a similar GOP liberal establishment to the one that waged a scorched-earth campaign against Reagan in '72 and '76, not to mention the primaries in 1980.

It really comes down to a simple fact, we are at the point where RINO corruption and policies are so much identical to the Radical lefts that we would be better off losing with real conservatives like Ted Cruz than winning with a RINO like Mitt.

I am 100% for Cruz. He is, in fact, the only candidate for whom I am going to vote in 2016. If he doesn’t make it to the general slate, I’m sitting it out.

It will be a tough road for him on the way to getting to the general election. The GOP is going to freeze him out of any debates where he could convince more voters to side with him.

Watch for primary debates whose formats have been set up by GOP to have panelists in a setting where each poses questions to particular primary candidates. Cruz will be virtually ignored in those questions.

Look for multiple ‘citizen’ lawsuits challenging his eligibility in multiple primary states. These will be from both GOP and DNC shill plaintiffs.

Look for deals made between the likes of Romney, Christie, Bush to maneuver state contests like McCain pulled in SC and VA.

MSM will ignore him as well, all the while looking for that “Herman Cain” controversy they can erupt all over primary frontlines.

There are probably a dozen or more devious, cowardly plans they have in store for him. But I will say this. He is tough enough to withstand it and emerge a winner. He has something the rest of the potentials don’t have. Honesty, integrity, honor, faith and truth. It is up to all of us to give him the rest of what he needs - our support, our money, and our votes.
