i’m not an opponent of sen. cruz. in fact he got alot of my hard earned money when he was running for the senate. i of course couldn’t vote for him living in ca.

that being said: to those who have received much, much is expected. if sen. cruz really believes that d.c. is the uni-party, then he has exactly one honest course of action to take. straight logic. as one of one-hundred, he has much more influence than 1 of 300,000,000.

to use a metaphor, i’m doing what i can to plow my tiny patch of the field, but will he now put his hand to the plow in this same field, or will he continue to plow in his?

so far, i’ve seen most republicans continuing to plow in their own field.

I'm sorry, but it still sounds like you're asking Ted Cruz to do it all. You expect superhuman feats from the man -- for your and my benefit.

For my money (of which I have given to him), he's done more for the conservative cause and the Constitution in his short time in office, than any ten other Senators have done in their entire careers. He's been a fearless champion for the founding precepts that gave birth to this nation, and I thank him for it.

Given a chance, and tons of support from the folks back home, he'll do much more, but he's not a god. He's not even godlike. Any man can only do so much alone, and he is pushing against the mightiest leviathan on the planet with very little assistance.

If you think there ought to be an alternate party for him to lead, then brother, get out there and start building it.
