I find the analogy with BO fascinating. The single-mother upbringings are similar. I don’t know the rest of the Cruz story. Is the return to the newly religious husband/father similar to BO’s mom marrying the Muslim and his living the idyllic Muslim/religious life in Indonesia like the Cruz family Christian “rebirth”? Both are Harvard Law with wives as the bread-winners. Both are snarky. Both are ego-driven and self-righteous. I question if BO has any real friends and only one guy in the Senate has endorsed TC. (Those who know him best....?). But Cruz spared us from writing his “best-selling autobiography” and the words of his most inspirational pastor. I thinks he has the evangelicals like BO had the monorities. But evangelicals are vocal but only 25% show up on Election Day. Blacks only show up if BO’s name is on the ballot. This generation of populist politicians is presenting great fodder for future study.
