Ted Kennedy’s widow, huh?
Means she survived going for a car ride with him…

Thanks for thread A.B. Let’s give it a full court press to prevent Iran nuke deal (even though our Secretary of State is saying “God Willing” in Arabic in hopes that it gets done - traitors all).
Where’s Susan Rice? Figured that someone would have wanted her to provide some cover...
Seems Secretary of State John Kerry is there for another Democrat ‘con-job’, to con the other Democracies that this Theocracy should be allowed to develop Nuclear Weapons in the future. And if the deal goes through, just like pulling out of Iraq and Afghanistan too early, the US Troops are left doing the grunt work of Mr ‘Know-it-all’ again and again.

There’s a reason for a lot of appearances by the Kennedy family: today is the grand opening of the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate at the University of Massachusetts campus in Boston, MA.
STATE OF THE UNION (CNN): Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas.
I was pleasantly surprised he got in early, great strategy and it should make it an uphill battle for the rest who seek the Republican nomination for president. Funny how Hillary is considered inevitable, while Cruz can’t win, I put my money behind Cruz and plan to donate more as long as he is in.
Morning everyone Fox and meet the press has Jack today.
Whoa! Simultaneously or separately. This should be good.
Thanks for the heads-up. I got it just in time.
I even found CNN in my cable line-up.
Face the nation has a bunch of has been on today. FNS has Carly on going to hear what she has to say.
Morning AB, All.
Thank you for reliably doing this thread especially this Palm Sunday.
Which reminds me that I am singing at the 10 am mass.
I simply must tell y’all my story about my efforts to be confirmed. Seems the pope might have to get involved.
Meanwhile…thank you AB and yon wise commenters who make me wiser.
Will be talking more upon my return.
Did I just hear him say that on CNN?
He was talking about his first election, "If your name sounds like Bummer... Boner... people have a hard time voting for you."
Ted up next.
It’s time for us to start talking about the “ War on White Males.” Only white males are still required to follow the rules and one the laws. Every one else, women, minorities, religious zealots, are now permitted to run wild.
FACE THE NATION (CBS): former Gov. Mike Huckabee, R-Ark.
No surprises here, Huckabee waiting till spring to announce.
Host Schieffer implies Cruz can only take the evangelical vote, and later with round table implies it again. [Sorry Bob, I’ve seen no evidence Cruz is like Huchabee or Santorum, who both seem to have a ‘holier than thou’ attitude.]
Host Schieffer says he ‘has never seen the world more tangled!’ [Mind you Schieffer was born in 1937, and his Democrats are currently running the foreign policies.]
66% Democrat supporters want a competitive primary opponent for the inevitable Hillary. [Gee, wonder what that means for any primary opponents?...remembering Rush’s Operation Chaos kept her in the first time, and this next time she may not have that advantage]
Round table lady Nancy(?) on Republicans - ‘base seems to be clamoring for a Governor’ [yeah, right, implying just not the Senator, give me a break! Cruz is making the rest of the crowd follow his lead.]
STATE OF THE UNION (CNN): Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas. (Host wasn’t Candy Crowley)
Replacement Host ‘Compromise’, ‘Likeability’ [all the bias, none of the realities—like Economics, Security...]
Replacement Host on Israeli 2 state solution—needs to be reminded of who the Israeli’s are dealing with.
Republican Presidential Candidate Ted Cruz on Israel ‘America shouldn’t be dictating a security solution’
Another roundtable attendee saying the electorate wants a candidate with a governor’s experience [Must be in the current Democrat talking points]
Cruz graduated cum laude from Princeton University with a Bachelor of Arts in Public Policy from the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs in 1992. While at Princeton, he competed for the American Whig-Cliosophic Society's Debate Panel and won the top speaker award at both the 1992 U.S. National Debating Championship and the 1992 North American Debating Championship. In 1992, he was named U.S. National Speaker of the Year, as well as Team of the Year, with his debate partner, David Panton. Cruz was a semi-finalist at the 1995 World Universities Debating Championship, making him Princeton’s highest-ranked debater at the championship. Princeton's debate team later named their annual novice championship after Cruz.
Cruz's senior thesis on the separation of powers, titled "Clipping the Wings of Angels," draws its inspiration from a passage attributed to President James Madison: "If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary." Cruz argued that the drafters of the Constitution intended to protect the rights of their constituents, and that the last two items in the Bill of Rights offer an explicit stop against an all-powerful state. Cruz wrote: "They simply do so from different directions. The Tenth stops new powers, and the Ninth fortifies all other rights, or non-powers."
After graduating from Princeton, Cruz attended Harvard Law School, graduating magna cum laude in 1995 with a Juris Doctor degree.While at Harvard Law, he was a primary editor of the Harvard Law Review, and executive editor of the Harvard Journal of Law and Public Policy, and a founding editor of the Harvard Latino Law Review. Referring to Cruz's time as a student at Harvard Law, Professor Alan Dershowitz said, "Cruz was off-the-charts brilliant." At Harvard Law, Cruz was a John M. Olin Fellow in Law and Economics.
I think the media has met far more than its match here.
