‘I don’t care how “conservative” Cruz is, where has he been the past few years? Why hasn’t he been vocal about all the changes the Democrats have made in our country? I do not know his reasons for not being out front and vocal on these issues, but could he be afraid of standing up to the left?’

Deaf? Blind?

Who did they blame for shutting down government and for what purpose was it done? Just how much more in your face could he have been about Obama care?

There are many speeches on the floor of the senate calling attention to what Obama and DC cartel have been doing. He’s only a senator, not some superman. If you have the courage:

Where is a speech by Trump even close to the above?

So what has Trump actually done with all his wealth to actually make a difference politically until he wanted the Presidency? What cause has he put his wealth and power to?

Name one.

What cause has Teump put his wealth too? He just raised and donated out of his own pocket over 6 million dollars a few weeks ago to the Vets. Thats tiny compared to his many other fundraisers and charitable contributions. Do your homework fool!

As I understand it, any congressman or senator can get on the floor and make a speech (or in some cases simply send the speech to the congressional records and they print it as if it was given). I don’t care!

My point is, if Trump was not running, many issues now on the table, such as immigration, would never be part of this campaign. Cruz was either unable or unwilling to get out in front on this (of many issues).

If Cruz was outspoken on these issues, why is it that Trump was able to grab the headlines (and the heat).

So I will concede Cruz is a conservative, I will concede that Cruz agrees with me on many issues, but what I will not concede is the fact I do not believe he has it in him to take the heat and that is what we need right now.

As an aside, do not be fooled by the Democrats or the media in their support of Cruz’s citizenship, if he got the nomination they would be in the courts in seconds tying up his campaign and the media would be attacking him on this point forever.

One last thing, I could be wrong, you could very well be right, but for now there is little that can be said that will change my view since it is more emotional then logical. Hope you succeed in convincing the majority that Cruz is the right candidate and that if he runs and wins, he will do the right thing. I will not work against him, just I will not support him until he wins the nomination.

New York's Vietnam Memorial.

The Ice Rink built ahead of schedule and below budget.

That's two.
