That was completely refreshing listening to Cruz.......reminded me when I first heard him and thought to myself if he ever ran for office I would be one happy camper.....and here we are.
And you are absolutely right.....Cruz is a candidate that comes along once in a generation.....but also they are never given unless the people ‘are ready’ for the answers they will bring.
Cruz would have appointed the man he fought for, Mike Luttig. Blame Bush for not taking Cruz’s advice.
Yes, Cruz did nail it tonight. And CNN didn't stand in his way.
Yes he did. Yes he did. Yes he is.
And don't summon me.
Educate yourself by listening to what he actually says.
There are links to all his rallies right here on FR; it's not like what he says is only available in Spanish at offshore resorts.

Ditto to all of that.
“Oratory masturbation”
Should’ve been yanked off the stage
Is it me or does Cruz look like Napoleon? Zero presence.. Zero dominance.. I want my president to DOMINATE .. give America its balls back! Sorry but Cruz seems like a sad sack... Honestly, I think thats why so many people want Trump... regardless of how he thinks.. or says.. He has BALLS...
Luttig would have been awesome.
I am voting for him in early voting this week in Texas and it will be my proudest vote of my life to date.
Go Cruz
The final key to the way I promote is bravado. I play to people’s fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That’s why a little hyperbole never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular.
I call it truthful hyperbole. It’s an innocent form of exaggeration - and a very effective form of promotion. ~ Trump: [”Art of the Deal”]
I do my own thinking. You have your talking points, too. I still find what Pryor did objectionable.
Sometimes Trump does speak less like a politician and more like most of us! I think the times he's used "liar" have been accurate--if not politically correct.
You sound like you don't like his style. And, that's okay. But, Trump's more than that--with very detailed policy papers on his website.
I know it's an extra step and we're all busy, but it just might be worth your time to take a look at them. It was for me. :-)
Truth
I agree that Cruz is stellar. I do not think I could bring myself to vote for Trump if he actually gets the nomination- (but I pray he won’t.) This Constitutional Conservative will sit out the election.
The media was terrible 30 years ago, and Cronkite was no walk in the park. At least there is more competition today.
Cruz has time. Let him grow up a little, maybe finish his first term in the Senate and we'll see.
But, IMO, we need Donald Trump--now.
You are very correct it is a very exciting election, you are also very correct about it being crazy around here!!! Don’t get put off just go with the flow and do not be intimidated if someone doesn’t like what you say, just tell them to have a nice day and move on!!! NEVER take it personally!!! You always have a right to your opinion regardless of anyone disagreeing with you!!! THANK YOU again for your response we had 3 people wondering what the heck Trumps answer was!!! You jumped in and told us!!!
