Cruz Supporters Planning to Launch ‘Ted Cruz Air Force’
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | April 25, 2015 | Justin Haskins

A group of zealous supporters of Sen. Ted Cruz’ (R-TX) 2016 presidential run is planning to launch a ‘Ted Cruz Air Force’ (TCAF) in the coming months prior to the Republican primaries that begin in less than a year.

According to TCAF, “Ted Cruz clearly has the support of the grassroots. He will also have air support.”

TCAF says its most prominent air feature will be the “Ted Cruz Blimp,” but it also plans on recruiting “antique aircraft, towed aerial banners, light sport aircraft … [and] parachutes.”

Member of TCAF Jerry Collette says he’s going to do everything he can to help Cruz win the GOP nomination.

“I support Ted Cruz because, like Ron Paul before him, Ted Cruz stands on principle, even if people on both sides of the aisle oppose him for doing so,” said Collette....

Finally a use for the A-10s the USAF wants to get rid of. Maybe President Cruz could even lease them back to the Air Force... no, wait, selling the office for cold cash is a Clinton operation.

Cruz will need an air force to protect him from Drones. He needs his own Media—Newspapers, Radio and TV New channel on the internet! Besides an air force he will need an army of Tea Party Conservatives—Sons of Liberty. And that army will need an general. I nominate Sarah Palin for General!

I have supported Ted 100%, but his seeming indifference to legal immigration problems, combined with Walker’s sterling interview on Beck have gotten me thinking. I’m still for Ted, but I’ve had it up to my eyeballs with hearts that bleed more for America-killing immigrants who vote socialist than native-born Americans. Bob

"TCAF says its most prominent air feature will be the “Ted Cruz Blimp,” but it also plans on recruiting “antique aircraft, towed aerial banners, light sport aircraft … [and] parachutes.”

Out of the box, I love it!

I am an amateur that had worked with a campaign and got in to a pissing match here with a gent saying I was crazy with some of my ideas, until a long time wonk of campaigns chimed in and said I was spot on.

Natural fit IMHO, pilots love liberty, they will do this for free or peanuts. So many more natural markets, 4 X 4-er's, ATV-ers, Snowmobiler's that have Fedzilla always trying to take their fun away. Ditto that boaters, and any other motorized contraption you can think of.

Reach out to them Senator, reach out...

Tempest in a teapot, with the media wanting to split conservatives. And it's working. Don't fall for it.

Legal immigration is up to congress anyway. The president can sign a bill or not, and legal immigration is WAY down the list when babies are being killed daily, and 2nd amendment rights are being ignored.

Many FDR, Truman, Kennedy and Carter people supported Reagan. I’ll take it.

No, I meant the comparison of Paul to Cruz. Ron Paul is a nutcase. But yes, I think his supporters will be a valuable addition to Cruz’s campaign.

The problem is, Walker has said nothing about solving the problem of millions of illegals that are taking American jobs. Until somone gets serious about deportation, that is still our biggest problem. Compared to 20 million illegals, a million or so of people who come here legally each year seems a lot less ominous.

Romney, Huntsman backed Beck is pure fraud. If Beck is backing Walker, that is a good reason to be wary of Walker.

Looking our gift supporters in the mouth is anti-constructive. Remember, the VP doesn’t do anything.
