“President, how are you?”
That’s how Glenn Beck greeted Ted Cruz on radio Friday morning, and once you hear how Cruz responded throughout, it’s not too far off to think the Texas senator could be making a run to fulfill Beck’s greeting.
Beck and his co-hosts spent a majority of the interview trying to get Cruz to announce he’s running. And while Cruz didn’t fully commit, he did make some interesting comments. Here are some of them:
“So what I’ll say is stay tuned.”
“I will point out, I was in Iowa last weekend. Tomorrow morning, I’m flying to South Carolina. The next day, I’m going to New Hampshire.”
“Those are not necessarily states chosen at random.”
“Iowa was beautiful. It ended up being unseasonably warm. I joke that if we were to launch a campaign, we could just make the campaign message be, you know, vote for Cruz. He’ll bring the sunshine. If we can deliver on that, they’d probably cancel the whole election.”
“Well, I’m looking at it very, very seriously.”
Sound like a candidate?
He also told a story of recently speaking to a group of people and telling them to text a certain number if they supported his message. There were about 1,500 people there, he said. The number got 3,598 texts.
“I have to tell you, the encouragement we’re receiving is breathtaking,” Cruz said.
Considering Cruz’s comments, Beck wasn’t shy about interpreting them.
“We’re thrilled,” he said. “And I know we say this jokingly every time. Everybody heard that Ted Cruz just announced he was running for president.” “That’s what I heard,” co-host Pat Gray added. “That’s what America heard.”
“I think we kind of did hear that here. We’ll wait for the official announcement, but we’re thrilled,” Beck concluded.
Listen to the full interview below:
Huh? He’s hired a large team, rented a headquarters and is visiting many states. How “serious” do you want him to be?
And he’ll get plenty of it. When he announces he’s running for President.
Serious enough to drop the one-liners and begin laying out his priorities and serious solutions to the problems we face.

Nowruz means “The New Day” and is the name of the Iranian New Year, marking the beginning of the year in the Persian calendar.
