Thank you for your analysis. However, many Cruz supporters don’t worship personalities like Trump supporters. Many believe in the constitution and will vote in anyone that supports Constitutional Conservatism. Trump has redefined the RNC as a personality cult, as evidenced by your comments. If you want to base your philosopy on that, then by all means..Cruz was not important as a personality to me, but in his views on the Constitution. . I once swore an oath to defend it, so I will only vote for someone who also will defend it, period. Personality is what has gotten us into trouble. Ted Cruz (or dislike for him) is not the issue. The issue is who defines your values best. Trumpbots or Cruzites have their own agenda. My agenda is based on principles, regardless of the candidate. I no longer support the Republican Party or any other party. I only have my one vote and I will vote it the way I see fit - not due to bullying by any candidate or party.

So, it's Hillary or bust for you principled Ted supporters? That's odd.

So it is whoever the Party sells to you, regardless of their values. You have your vote, use it. That is all you have. If you want to settle for whomever you think can beat Hillary, go ahead. I will point out however, that emotional appeals and bullying rarely works. It sure didn’t work on you when they attacked Trump because they couldn’t control him. The one thing is that personalities come and go. I will place my trust in the Constitution, and men who respect it because it has been one relative constant. Otherwise, I will Trust God to put in place whom he will. He doesn’t really need my help or yours to do that. The ‘bogeyman attack’ has worked poorly for the Republicans and well for the Democrats in the last two elections. I will not vote for ‘the lesser of two evils’ again. I would ask you if you have ever heard Trump say the word liberty or Constitution? Since I can’t trust personalities I only have my beliefs to fall back on. In the scheme of things, you are only responsible for yourself..by the way, the Obama supporters were just as committed to him as the Trumpsters are for Donald. Who is right ultimately? Try another experimental president because you understand better? You make another mistake in assuming that I am a Cruz supporter. I am not-I think that I was very clear that I am a Constitutional Conservative. You are judging through the lens of personalities. 10 years from npw, you might have a different opinion on Trump based on his record. I, on the other hand will still think the same as a Constitutional Conservative and will judge accordingly.
