Cruz Kicks Off Women for Cruz Coalition in Madison, WI [VIDEO at link]
Legal Insurrection ^ | Wednesday, March 30, 2016 | Taryn O'Neill

Posted on 03/30/2016 3:21:19 PM PDT by M. Thatcher

“This event this morning is a celebration of strong women.”

On Tuesday morning, Ted Cruz kicked off a Women for Cruz coalition in the liberal stronghold of Madison, Wisconsin. The senator was joined by his wife Heidi, mother Eleanor, and former presidential candidate Carly Fiorina for a conversation on issues considered important to women.

In a change of pace from prior events, Cruz gave a shortened stump speech and focused on the meaning of the term “women’s issue,” itself:

“This event this morning is a celebration of strong women. One of the most frustrating things about the Democrats is the Democrats love to pigeonhole women. Put ’em in a little box [and] you have a set of issues that are women’s issues. Well, listen. I have news for the Democrat party: Women are not a special interest. Women are a majority of the United States of America and every issue is a women’s issue.”

Cruz went on to say that his campaign is about three issues, those being jobs, freedom, and security. Despite the Democrat party’s effort to deem only issues advancing the progressive cause as valid women’s issues, Cruz made a point to emphasize that these three crucial issues are inherently women’s issues just as they are men’s.

Cruz then sat down with his wife, mother, and Carly Fiorina for a series of questions fielded by moderator Rebecca Hagelin.

Heidi Cruz spoke of having spent time in Africa as a child and the effect it had on her career choice. The daughter of a missionary and dentist, she explained how she came to appreciate the key tenets of American society and government. “You think about why these countries are so far behind [and] it is because they do not have a system of capitalism where people can borrow money, have an idea and be able to fund that idea, and produce a product.” Neither is there a system that allows for someone to take risk while baring the responsibility for that risk, she explained, and a court system for the pursuit of due justice. Lastly, she spoke of the lack of a political system free of corruption. “It is so important that we protect those three basic things about our democracy.”

Former Republican presidential candidate and Hewlett Packard CEO Carly Fiorina recalled the career path she travelled, having started as a secretary for a small real estate firm and finished as the head of a $90 billion technology firm. She emphasized the need to simplify the personal and corporate tax codes, stressing that nearly two-thirds of the nation’s job growth comes from small businesses. The problem today, she said, is an excess of power concentrated in the hands of a few:

“As the CEO of a 90-billion dollar firm, I could make a 73-thousand page tax code work for us. I could hire the lawyers, I could hire the accountants. I could hire the lobbyists. And we did.

You see all that complexity in the tax code? It favors the big. The big company over the small business. It favors the wealthy and the well-connected and the powerful, like Donald Trump, by the way, who is ‘the system.’ And he will preserve the system because he’s taken advantage of the system all his life.

So, why is Ted Cruz’ tax plan so important? Because it’s not just about lowering rates: it’s about simplifying … The reason being a constitutional conservative is so important to economic opportunity is because conservatives understand that the problem is too much power concentrated in the hands of too few. Too much economic power, too much political power.”

Although neither Mr. nor Mrs. Cruz addressed rumors printed in the National Enquirer, they did take time to describe a few things they appreciated most about each other.

The event this morning is one of several events the Ted Cruz has held in Wisconsin in the past week. A recent Marquette Law School poll has Ted Cruz pulling into the lead the with 40% of likely voters. Donald Trump follows with 30% and John Kasich trails with 21%. The poll is the final poll to be released before Wisconsin holds its primaries on Tuesday, April 5.

“If this is all lies, then why does Ted not file a law suit against the National Enquirer?”

I think Cruz is waiting on that as a distraction for when Trumps sues him over citizenship, Iowa and Louisiana.

Ted cannot file a law suit against National Enquirer because the articles are written “alleged” “supposedly”. Nothing in their article states he had an affair with 100% certainty.

Heidi Cruz campaigning in Wisconsin, helping run up the score from what is turning into a blowout due to Rump's Smear Stunt. SWEET!

Wait... what is that coming down the road... a 50 dump truck caravan of scrambled eggs, ready to be applied to all the Rump smear mongers.

The tweets about Grease lyrics are fake. Fonts, time stamps, etc.

The “condoms” are probably a phone case - they are STILL on her instagram account.

Not sure what joke you are talking about - perhaps her tweet where a bunch of Cruz people (and Cruz) got a Churchill sticker/tattoo?

Reminds me of the story where some U.S.politician asked some ruler in Africa about what the U.S. can do to help them.

“Stop sending your crap free cloths. Instead help us develop loans and get our own people making clothing, earning money, and buying their own clothing!”

If you want to see that happen, you have to get your Empty Suit Carnival Barker to call his best buddy Pecker and tell him to stop using weasal words. He needs or man up and state that those women had affairs. Not may have, not we've heard they did, not someone told us. Tell your empty suit to stop being such as wuss and say it as fact. Can you do that?

Then I guarantee you Cruz will sue them and destroy them in a court of law. First your fake tough guy bully has to man up. I think he's a gutless coward, one of those bulliesthat are all bluster with false bravado, that cry like a baby and run home to mommy the first time they get punched in the nose.

Heidi Cruz comes across as so genuine and classy in that Wisconsin kickoff video. I can see why the polls are running away for Team Cruz there.

In this video, Hedi Cruz just so utterly nukes all of Rump and his little Goebbels devils. Their attempt to smear her, her husband, and their relationship goes went up in a mushroom cloud. What a strong and intelligent woman.

Amanda Carpenter has admitted they are real, but said it was just jokes and fun.

So you are lying by saying it’s fake.

It’s right on her Twitter and Instagram if anyone wants to look. I posted both her Twitter account and Instagram account.

Once you put it out there you can’t erase it.
