I understand your concern. My ideal ticket would scare the horses and the children, but I am willing to have a less than ideal VP if it would get our guy in the number one slot. VP’s aren’t automatically advanced to the next level. Ask President Mondale, or President Quayle, or President Gore, or President Cheney, or soon to be President Biden.
I am 100% with you. Cruz is longtime friends with Ron.
Let’s win the election first.

A very good post and something I’ve been saying for awhile now.
A true conservative has a chance to win the nomination by them-self but, to win the presidency they will need to unify the base as unpalatable as that sounds to some people. Remember a VP has basically no legislative responsibilities if the Senate is controlled by the same party. If Biden can do the job adequately, and he has despite the gaffs, gropes, and malapropisms, anyone can.
I think if Cruz wins the nomination and Satan’s Prom Queen is the demonrat nominee then he needs to pick a female to be the VP to at least partially defuse the stupid left wing woman vote. Palin has been too damaged by the hostile left and honestly, she is not good at thinking on her feet and debating.
Cruz/Fiorina (Female) Cruz/Martinez (Hispanic Female) Cruz/Rice (Black Female)
There are probably issues with all of them but that is the way to go
