Sorry, I am a victim of the California Education system—I am a crappy speller. I think Rudy would offer little to Trump—and Carly is too much in the tank with Ted Cruz. I would like to see her as Governor of California. As for the Charge of the light brigade—I have memorized the whole poem! Have you?

I agree. Cruz is too much of a narcissist to recognize any limits to his perfection. He and his father believe that he is the “anointed one”

Ted Cruz


Father: Rafael Bienvenido Cruz
Cruz left the Roman Catholic Church in 1975 and became a born-again Christian after attending a Bible study with a colleague. Explaining his conversion, Cruz stated in an interview with The National Review, “The people at the Bible study had a peace that I could not understand, this peace in the midst of trouble. I knew I needed to find that peace by finding Jesus Christ.” Following his conversion, his son and wife also became born-again Christians. In the Cruz home, talk at dinner time was frequently about the Bible.[20]
Cruz works from his home in Carrollton, Texas, a suburb of Dallas, as a traveling preacher[21][22] and public speaker, campaigning as a surrogate for his son during the 2016 Presidential campaign season.[23][24] In a 2014 Associated Press story, Cruz was quoted as saying, “I have a burden for this country and I feel that we cannot sit silent.” He went on to say that he feels “It’s time we stop being politically correct and start being biblically correct.”[24]
About his political involvements in the 1980s, Cruz reflected, “I was on the state board of the Religious Roundtable, a Christian and Jewish religious organization that worked to elect Ronald Reagan.” At the time, he told his son, “God has destined you for greatness.”[23][25]
At the New Beginnings Church in Irving, Texas, in August 2012, Cruz delivered a sermon where he described his son’s senatorial campaign as taking place within a context where Christian “kings” were anointed to preside over an “end-time transfer of wealth” from wicked people to the righteous. Cruz urged the congregation to “tithe mightily” to achieve that result.[26] During an interview conducted by the Christian Post in 2014, Cruz stated, “I think we cannot separate politics and religion; they are interrelated. They’ve always been interrelated.”[27] Salon described Cruz as a “Dominionist, devoted to a movement that finds in Genesis a mandate that ‘men of faith’ seize control of public institutions and govern by biblical principle.”[28]

Cruz’s father is creepy as is his son. While I don’t necessarily believe the National Enquirer, he certainly was a proponent of Castro - even in the United States.

I don’t understand Cruz’s parentage - it is as mixed up as Obama’s - hidden, obfuscated and lied about. The Donald meanwhile, has a Scottish-American mother who simply raised children and an American father. I’m sick of these mutts - I long for two parents born on American soil and lovers of America. Trump comes closest to this bill.

Politically appropriate match is about the nicest thing I can say given her record:

Why is this even a story? The lunatic has lost the nomination...his only plan is to deprive the people of their power and steal it. But, I have a feeling people are really beginning to get disgusted with him now.

Indeed.

Jeez, little wormy Jeff Roe, right in the stink of it all.

Desperation looks so bad

Good! I like her. She’s 100% common sense, she’s a self-made woman, and I can see her taking a positon of power with patriotic stride.

Always a good idea to have someone close to you, more annoying than you are, so folks won’t focus on you.

Yep, I can see Ted picking Carly.

Besides, she’s more masculine than he is, and he’s more feminine than she is/

the bad news for carly is this...
being on Ted’s SHORT list today, is no guarantee that once on that SHORT list, if Teddy gets what he wants, the same person might be on his SH _ T list the following day.
Ted’s a liar, he cheats and he stinks like a warm cow pie. He sends women checks for 500,000, for no apparent reason, but like everything else he does, it looks and smells like a payoff or coverup.

No more dirty TED. He CANNOT and MUST NOT be trustTED.
Tomorrow is the equivalent of custer’s last stand... and TED is getting custered... aka “shlonged” big time, New York style.

I think you have her confused with Mr. Trump.

I memorized that poem when I was ten, which is probably decades older than when you were born! And yes, I can still say it from memory.

You're the one who proposed all of those people; just YOU! None of whom make any sense at all. Neither does wanting iCarly for governor make any sense either!

“she’s a self-made woman,”

What did she make? She worked FOR someone else, never for herself. She has always been collecting a check. If that’s self-made then I should be running!
