I'm in agreement about Jeb. The good news about him is he isn't a good candidate, even though he may be the choice of the GOP honchos. He has no constituency, his views are overwhelmingly liberal (not even a RINO moderate), he insults the base a lot, he's not telegenic, isn't a very good speaker, and his last name has been destroyed for at least a generation. He's already falling in the polls, I think he's not going to be around very long into the primaries.

Rand has a constituency, but it is small, I don't care for him, but he will have to be dealt in by whoever wins the nomination.

I prefer Cruz because he has a combination of qualities I think we need: He is the most Reagan like of all the candidates, he reflexively believes in the strength of the conservative ideal. He has a vision for America as Reagan did, and the capacity to express it well and bring people to his position. He is the best candidate in his ability to deal with the MSM, he can take any interview any time and overcome the bias of the interviewer, he's a GREAT debator and communicator, I've seen it over and over again. We need that combination of innate skills and his leadership abilities.

Him being a senator is not as much an issue with me, but I understand what you are saying, a lot of people feel that way. I don't believe we have a disaster because the bamster was a senator, rather bercause at his core he's anti-American and fully Zinnified.

Cruz' campaign has started well, but he will have to distinguish himself from the flood. If he does that, you can be assured he has the leadership skills needed to win the whole enchilada (a little espanol for ya).......
