Apparently can’t read simple English either.

“would they be appalled at what they found if they were able to see it today?”

Completely irrelevant to the question of Ted Cruz’s eligibility. I’m sure they would be closer to Cruz’s idea of constitutional government than that of the undoubtedly NBC Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders...

. True Christians don’t conduct themselves as you are here.

You are confused. Being a Christian is not equal to you sit idly by and let a bunch of crazy left wing psychopaths walk all over you, especially, when said psychopaths are trashing the Christian candidate for his Christian believes.
I take it you never heard of the crusades.

How many Trump supporters in the US are there? What percent of that number is twelve?

“And this, I believe, is why Cruz is admonishing his staff to put on the whole armour of God, to attain the godly wisdom and guidance to withstand false attacks that originate from the pit of Hell.”

That is very good, except it is not his “staff” that will be attacked, it is Cruz. And yes, he will be attacked, because that is the way politics are, and all the other candidates will be attacked.

He also said this, directed to a much larger group:

“If we awaken and energize the body of Christ- if Christians and people of faith come out and vote our values- we will win and we will turn the country around,” Cruz told volunteers on a conference call Tuesday.”

“we” is a collective pronoun meaning you and me. “You” refers to Christians, “me” refers to Cruz, i.e. Cruz will win.

On the other hand NOT DEPORTING ALL ILLEGALS FIRST, is a form of amnesty. Cruz is against rounding up all illegals and deporting them first. He wants a path to legal status for illegals. That is a deal breaker for me.

You're posting the same 2013 video as the other poster. Both Cruz and Sessions have claimed that Cruz was trying to sell his poison pill amendments. You can disbelieve Cruz and Sessions and believe what you want about that video, that's fine.

But you ignore Cruz's position against a legalization amnesty starting from Jan. 2014 on.

And you ignore Trump's position on the issue, even as late as July 24th 2015, where he was asked what to do with the "11 million" here. He didn't say that we should expedite a few back and deport the rest. He only mentioned deportation for the criminals.

You asked for a Cruz supporter to explain those votes. I answered you fairly, honestly and with no mention of trump.

Wow, I really am starting to think trump supporters may be in need of ESL classes.

Surely you must accept the problem of any number on a supposedly conservative site wanting ditatorship. And if so called ‘conservative’ people are asking for hat then omitted people are as well.

The discussion was trump supporters on FR. 12 as a function of those supporters who actually post here...is most definitely not insignificant and not anomaly....ergo: generally

You have me confused with odawg. That is the poster who asked for the explanation. I did not.

Except that if you listen carefully to what he actually says, it is crystal clear he is carrying out his poison pill strategy. He's calling the bluff. The Gang of Eight was trying to pitch the bill on the premise that we can't let all these poor illegals hide in the shadows. So Cruz comes along and says, OK, what if the only thing we take off the table is citizenship, so they can never vote. But we do the amendment such that we can let them have some temporary permit status (RPI etc) that accomplishes what you say you want, getting them out of the shadows. Would you agree to that? And of course the answer was a resounding NO, because the Gang of Eight was not being straight with the American people. Citizenship was the true goal after all, and Cruz gamed them into admitting it publicly. It is truly one of the stronger reasons I like him.

Yup.

I take it you have never heard of the principles of Christianity or common sense.

Now you’re comparing us to the Muslim hoards?

You folks are some sick individuals.

Cruz enabled TPA, which will enable TPP, which effectively will end our sovereignty.

Blowing smoke as usual?
I take it you never read the TPA Bill then? Untill TPP passes, there is no pact, no agreement. There is no loss of sovereignty to anyone. You are going to need to get off the drugs.

I bet you could find twelve Cruz supporters with problematic ideas too. They would not reflect on the majority.

EO’s have been used, by all Presidents, in some form or fashion...and, officially, since 1862. Are you saying that the next President cannot use EO’s? If so, then your candidate would have to go back on his promise to undo 0’s EO’s.

Which FR Trump supporters have said they want a dictatorship?

If this link (to an absurd RINO Review article) is what you’re referring to, then don’t bother pushing your pap any further....

the result was the GOP saw that we would comply with their leftism and then moved left.

Maybe so, but as I said where I vote it doesn't matter the races are decided before one vote is counted and that includes the general as well as the primary. I was not true to myself with that vote and I have personally repented and promised to write in the next election because I doubted there would be a choice again this time, but Trump has changed my mind. Again I doubt Cruz will get past the Primary and I haven't been wrong about the winner since Dewey beat Truman.

Calling for dictatorship is a bit more serious a matter than a ‘problematic idea’.

Of course it does not reflect a majority. It is a serious problem that it exists at all.

Listen to a guy talk about stuff that is NOT in the bible? No friggin' way. Seven Mountains insanity is not Christianity.

The you're as big a fraud as the OP.

“We haven’t had a more courageous politician in Washington in decades, and you guys eat him alive. You haters of Cruz are all self-immolators.”

Two votes: TPA and the Corker bill nullifies what you just said you believe. I don’t hate Cruz, I just do not trust him of those two votes and some of the You-tube videos with him discoursing on immigration. And his refusal to support a moratorium on Muslim immigration, etc.
