With Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) beginning his run for the Presidency today, I should make public the question I've suggested to reporters in private.
Senator Cruz is for certain going to be joined by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), who will announce in a few weeks.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), who I think is underrated in his bid for the Presidency even though Jeb Bush is intent on locking up Florida, will also most likely declare his candidacy.
All three of these men would make excellent Presidents. I know them personally. I backed them when they were at single digits in the polls. I pray for them regularly. I like them all.
Still, I think they have to answer a question those who come from Governor's Mansions will not. That question is this:
For six years, Republicans have said the nation made a mistake electing a one term Senator the President of the United States. Why should you, a one term Senator, be the GOP's nominee?
Given Republican rhetoric against President Obama for six years, it is fair and relevant. I look forward to their answers.
Too funny. Sounds very familiar....
Y nought?
Cruz has done more than be a one-term Senator. His resume is quite impressive - unlike the hidden one from the liar-in-chief now squatting in the WH - or should I say = on the golf course?
But at this Point Trig Palin would be a 10000% Better President than Ubama.
Of Course, not they YOU would know anything about Trig would you? >:(
Because Ted Cruz is a man of God who deeply loves America, and Obama is nothing of the sort.....he’s the polar opposite.
Next question, Erick.
The answer is simple. Cruz has had real jobs running things.
Ted is a bit more that a one term Senator, He has argued before the supreme court as opposed to “community organizing” and has been a senator for a few years as opposed to the current Pres__ent who was only a Senator for 143 DAYS.
Because he’s the only actual conservative in the race.
Duh.
Cruz has principals.
obozo has interests.
Not all Senators are created equal (or rather not all have the same intellect), Mr. Obama’s a midget compared to Ted Cruz.
Because we know:
- Who he is
- Why his parents were
- Where he came from
- What he believes
- What he is for
- What he is against
- Where his loyalty is
- Which God he worships
...for a start
Because Cruz is not Obama.
It is a simplistic answer but the question is simplistic at best and stupid if I was inclined to be unkind.
It’s happened 3 times: Harding, Kennedy, Obama. None were up to the job.
Our system is doomed if the President is a super-representative. If he represents all 435 Congressional districts and all 50 states, then he becomes a dictator at the drop of a hat.
He’s NOT a representative. He’s an executive - a hired hand.
sorry - Why = Who his parents were
The article asks a pretty dumb question. The problems with Obama have precisely nothing to do with his political inexperience and everything to do with the fact that he’s an anti-American, anti-Israel, anti-white, anti-jew, anti-Christian, maniacal, narcissistic, Islamist-sympathizing radical left-wing piece of Marxist sh*t.
We are eating our own. Shut up Erik and go after the real enemy—the RATS.
Being better than Obama is a qualification for nothing.
Well, because Reagan isn’t available and Cruz may be the next best thing.
Answer: the former one term senator was a Mandhurian Candidate planted and paid for by foreign money / i terests with the purpose of intentionally destroying the United States and its Constitution using ideology and failed social experiments. He wouldn’t tell us who he was, sealed his college records before running gor POTUS, ,provided a fake bith certificate, and didn’t even have a social security number that appeared to be his own all while telling us his administration would be the most transparent in history.
Cruz has already posted his birth certificate online, proven that he is for The People by his actions in Congress, has stated that he would repeal Obamacare and abide by the Constitution, and believes in securing our borders, and believes in a strong relationship with Israel, among other actions.
Next question...
