That was my original belief about our young Mr. Cruz, too, but I now think my first impressions were mistaken. As it is now with "Ted Cruz for President", I just don't know enough to place a decent bet on Ted Cruz at this point.
However, he has incredible potential and, like everyone else, he is a work in progress.
He wanted a shot at something, and he has placed himself or been placed upon a much greater and taller stage, and in a much brighter spotlight, than I would have chosen for myself.
I can't relate to any of that at my current level. I like fortune, but notoriety and fame? Not so much...
Personally, I only ask that we all pray for his guidance to follow the right path and that we forgive his missteps, just as we pray for our own guidance and for our being forgiven.
His story is still being written. I hope that he makes it a GREAT one!
Personally, I still hope he is the Constitutional warrior I originally had believed him to be.
However, that's not who/what he is in his current role. He's the opposite.
