The field definitely needs clearing. I think it has been purposely cluttered.

You know when I listen to Ted Cruz speak and answer questions, I hear an honest man explaining himself and his reasoning. He is not one who ducks questions (like Hillary, who clearly has many things to hide).

I don’t agree with Cruz on everything. I disagreed with him on TPA for Obama, and even though I support legal immigration, I could be open to the idea of a complete halt on legal immigration for X amount of years, because frankly I don’t trust our government anymore, and it is possible that it is using legal immigration as a weapon just as it is using illegal immigration as a weapon.

But, that being said, I still believe Cruz is an honest man, and that is a rare, rare thing, so he continues to have my support.

I wish that I could believe that Trump believes what he is saying, but what I do believe is that he is an opportunist who knows how to reach those people whom he wants to reach.

A smart salesman knows how to make his product appeal to potential buyers, and in this case the product is himself.

I would like to believe that even a democrat could look at this immigration situation and be outraged by it. No the ends do not justify the means. The lust for power that is driving this invasion of illegal aliens is just disgusting, and anyone who would engage in this or support this does not deserve to have power over anyone.

So maybe Trump is a democrat who is outraged by this, and maybe he does mean it, I just don’t trust him yet, and I know that he is not a conservative republican. I’m not stupid enough to believe that he is one, so him saying that he is makes me angry. I don’t like being lied to.

If Trump wants me to believe him and what he says, he will have to explain himself honestly to me, and if he lies, I’ll know. I’ve been following politics for too long to be fooled so easily.

I am going to continue to watch Trump and support Cruz, lemme stop my ramble here.

I agree...but we fight one battle at a time. If Trump clears the RINOs out of the field, then he’s done a bigger service than anyone else has been able to do. And if Trump does become president, he will have a hard time doing a complete 180 on border security...although he might not be with us on many other issues.

But the border is #1, by a mile, for me. Nothing else matters, if the Dems are able to bring in 30M new voters...for that definitely gives them the White House, the Courts, and probably Congress too. So if Trump is bad on guns, but good on immigration...then we’ll have to work with Trump (or his successors) on guns, but at least we’ll still be players, rather than be relegated to the role of Republicans in states like California.

But it’s still a long time before Primaries, and I suspect that if Cruz can keep hanging on to Trump’s coattails, Cruz will be the nominee. And so far, he’s doing great at that.
