Nice write-up. Thanks for providing it for us.
I see two pertinent things. 1 - he knows and will defend the Constitution. At this point, with those in DC of both parties leaving that precious document in tatters, I’d rather have someone like Cruz that will put the Constitution first vs. someone with executive experience. A true conservative is my highest priority, after all the backstabbing by RINOs.
2 - he’s an awesome debater. Not just our opinion - those here that love him - but Princeton’s opinion and the opinion of all the debate judges. And we need someone that can be quick on their feet, since they will be having to contend not only with the Dems, but with a biased press, his own party turning on him, and RINOs in Congress. In other words, we need someone spectacular. Cruz fits that.
Thanks, and I agree.
He has executive experience.
Running a 4,000 person agency maybe not the same as running a state but it does require one to use managing skills that community orginizing does not.
He has shown he is able to meet budget goals, manage personnel, (some, I’m sure, had to be terminated by him), and he had to determine which lawyers were best suited for which case and then monitor the progress of the cases being pursued.
He also would have had the final say on what cases to not pursue because of budget and personnel considerations.
Finally, from Google search: Prior to becoming Solicitor General, he served as the Director of the Office of Policy Planning at the Federal Trade Commission, as Associate Deputy Attorney General at the U.S. Department of Justice, and as Domestic Policy Advisor on the 2000 Bush-Cheney campaign.
