I like Cruz though I think Trump is a better choice, but I have to admit you might be right.
I am skeptical in that Cruz supporters keep pointing to things he's "called for" but hasn't seemed able to accomplish.
Cruz' greatest accomplishment to date is exposing the Republican leadership in the Senate and their corruption of the legislative process.
The price of that accomplishment, though, is that Cruz will never be allowed to create and pass any meaningful legislation.
