	"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton "We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan "A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792 "It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

From the article:

"Of all the people I've seen this week, this is the largest contingent," said Bernie Casey of Durham, N.H., who saw Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and Sen. Lindsay Graham of South Carolina. "I think [Cruz] is going to do real well in New Hampshire," he said. "He's going to appeal to the conservatives, the real, old New Hampshire people," and not recent transplants from elsewhere in the Northeast.

Cruz said that he is seriously considering a presidential run and told the crowd to "stay tuned." He noted that in the past week he has been in Iowa and and South Carolina, as well as New Hampshire — all early voting states. He also said that his oldest daughter has decided she's on board with her father running.

Run, Ted, run!

“After the event, one of those men chased Cruz down, insisting on giving him his first campaign check. The senator firmly refused the check, citing the fact that he is not officially a presidential candidate.”

Likely a liberal plant trying to get him to accept a check so he could run to the Justice dept and report it.

I am looking forward to voting for the first Hispanic for president.
