Cruz, who is competing neck and neck with Trump in the early voting state of Iowa, said "that is not my policy" when a reporter raised the topic on the campaign trail.
"Listen, I donâ't believe most Americans are using language against Muslim Americans. We are using language against radical Islamic terrorists, but I am going to focus on language I use," Cruz said.
"I believe the focus should focus on radical Islamic terrorism and we need to be directly focused on threats to the United States. We need a commander in chief that perceives what the threat is and targets all of our resources against radical Islamic terrorists."
Sen. Ted Cruz

If you’re a Christian, you’re bigot towards all other religion. If you’re an atheist, you’re bigot towards all religion.
Today we have fake Christians and Fake Atheist who defend Islam

This election is evidence of the fact that some candidates loose sight of the big picture, and become very insular. They ignore the concerns of regular people. Trump and Cruz get it. The others do not.

Everyone should read the whole statement and DON"T GET IT TWISTED!!
Donald J. Trump Statement on Preventing Muslim Immigration (New York, NY) December 7th, 2015, -- Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on. According to Pew Research, among others, there is great hatred towards Americans by large segments of the Muslim population. Most recently, a poll from the Center for Security Policy released data showing "25% of those polled agreed that violence against Americans here in the United States is justified as a part of the global jihad" and 51% of those polled, "agreed that Muslims in America should have the choice of being governed according to Shariah." Shariah authorizes such atrocities as murder against non-believers who won't convert, beheadings and more unthinkable acts that pose great harm to Americans, especially women. Mr. Trump stated, "Without looking at the various polling data, it is obvious to anybody the hatred is beyond comprehension. Where this hatred comes from and why we will have to determine. Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in Jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life. If I win the election for President, we are going to Make America Great Again." - Donald J. Trump

From Jeb Bush to Lindsay Graham is “across the political spectrum”?
Only the Communist Guardian would think so. (And, I suppose, the rest of the MSM liars.)

I agree, Trump is right. Anyone who does not see the sanity of such a move is insane.
