He also favors having the federal government pay the healthcare costs for the 25% of the population without insurance. Not even ObamaCare goes that far.

Ever heard of MediCaid?

The lack of critical thinking in today’s world has lead us to this. Most people are unable to understand what consequences will come from their actions. Like the idiots who voted for someone who said he would fundamentally transform our nation.

Cruz is a candidate that comes along once in a generation, and some conservatives are going to be heart broken voting for the liberal Donald Trump.

Cruz lied about Trump’s sister.......He neglected to say that President Ronald Reagan nominated her to the federal judgeship. What a sleeze. Of course after Reagan thought she did a great job, Clinton also nominated her. Cruz is a liar. I can’t stand him. I look forward to the day he suspends his campaign.

You are hilarious. If everyone is against Cruz, there is a reason for it. Not many people in life like liars. They just don’t. Even during the town hall Cruz stretched the truth about Trump’s sister saying that Clinton nominated her when in reality Reagan nominated her. Cruz will stretch the truth or lie outright on a daily basis without missing a breath. I think he has probably lied his whole life because his weird father.

What did Cruz lie about this time?

In 1983, Maryanne Barry was nominated by Reagan to a seat on the US District Court in NJ.

She was nominated by Clinton to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals in 1999.

Ted Cruz Sings:

And

"I Just Called to Say I Love You"

WHAT HAPPENED TO ALTURA???

She disappeared after Trump left...her tag line says she is for Cruz, yet she didn't stay to support him,,,

I think she just was on to trash Trump...

Cruz impressed me when he first ran and talked with out a TelePrompter, that was cool...but then the Donald decided to run...and I've stood by him through it all and will until the end...Cruz now bores me and I feel he thinks he is better than apple pie and sliced bread...

I'm willing to give Trump a term,,and if he does as he says...I'll give him a second term...for we damn sure have been destroyed by the community organizer that had no experience at all and voters went crazy for him...LOOK AT THE MESS THIS NATION IS IN...

SO I'M IN IT FOR THE LONG HAUL...AND WILL SUPPORT DONALD J. TRUMP FOR POTUS...

ENOUGH FROM ME...NITE ALL P.S. I'm sick of professional politicians that preach they are conservatives...look at all those conservatives in Congress...no more politician for this American...TRUMP has began a new trend in Politics..let's roll and roar...

I found it all on YouTube.

Trump got hammered by the interviewers but the crowd seemed to warm up to him as it went along. I think many, there and at home, must have been hearing these positions and arguments for the first time, so it was definitely a plus overall.

absolutely not. we have (had) the best medical care in the world and so many people want to nationalize (europeanize) it, it’s pathetic.

What europe is doing is awful. I am on a couple of thyroid boards and the pleas of the people from other countries about where they can find decent medicine because they don’t have a doctor that responds or that has freedom to treat are astounding.
