If you haven't had a chance yet, be sure to read this about libertarians moving to Cruz - long but grabs your attention.
This.
Or promises from a NY liberal.
Trump didn’t wear “the only principled conservative in the race” like a priestly garment. Trump didn’t write a book titled “A Time For Truth”. Ted Cruz did that. That’s where Ted set the bar before it came crashing down.
No one expected Trump to be anything but Trump.
Lies of omission;
“Also known as a continuing misrepresentation, a lie by omission occurs when an important fact is left out in order to foster a misconception. Lying by omission includes failures to correct pre-existing misconceptions.”
So ironic that the title of Ted’s book is “A Time For Truth”. Highly disappointed I bought it, and believed it. I wonder if he will give me a refund?
Here’s an example of Ted’s lies of omission, seven lies and misrepresentations in under three minutes. That is walking the talk “the most principled conservative in the race”???
Lie 1 - Pro-abortion and supporting partial birth abortion.

Lie 2 - Trump is calling for the same socialized medicine as Sanders

Lie 3 - pushed partial birth abortion
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=RHgqFQ85uZs#t=239
Lie 4 - Even as a candidate Donald says we need to have full on socialized medicine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=RHgqFQ85uZs#t=298
Lie 5 - at the debates he said we ought to have socialized medicine like Canada and Scotland.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=RHgqFQ85uZs#t=302
Lie 6 - If you as a republican don’t support socialized medicine you are heartless.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=RHgqFQ85uZs#t=312
Lie 7 - If you want to see Bernie sanders style of socialized medicine Trump is your guy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=RHgqFQ85uZs#t=335
So it’s more of the same.
Get people on stage to tell you how rough and tough and powerful Cruz is, because no one has any obvious examples of how this is true.
Why would supposedly closed-borders FReepers support a guy who went down to the border with soccer balls and teddy bears? Ohh, I get it the “teddy bear” thing now. This used to be a conservative website. Now it’s just the big money, New York bank website. Cult of personality is right.
TX [December 21, 2000 - January 20, 2015] Governor Rick Perry - Upon graduation from college in 1972, Rick Perry was commissioned as an officer in the United States Air Force and completed pilot training in February 1974. He was then assigned as a C-130 pilot to the 772nd Tactical Airlift Squadron at Dyess Air Force Base. Perry's duties included two-month overseas rotations at RAF Mildenhall in England and Rhein-Main Air Base in Germany."
Forgoing the stump speech pleasantries, Cruz engaged us with confidence and knowledge, challenging us to skip the softball questions and get to some areas of disagreement.No other candidate can do this.This request, of course, we obliged.
Cruz spoke our language, and held his own on a wide range of liberty issues including state nullification, the military-industrial complex, and drug policy. There were some areas of disagreement, and his appeal to us wasn't grounded in ideological purism, but in common policy goals. Still, even those who still had reservations came away with more respect for his candid approach and willingness to engage us directly.
If we are going to roll back the government, rather than manage Obamacare better, we need a leader who can win hearts and MINDS.
The real problem is that you hate honest debate and demand everyone agrees with you and your candidate.
I am going to eliminate 3 Cabinet Positions here they are ..............
bttt!
The final key to the way I promote is bravado.
I play to people's fantasies.
People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do.
That's why a little hyperbole never hurts.
People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular.
I call it truthful hyperbole.
It's an innocent form of exaggeration - and a very effective form of promotion.

Also, I've noticed that you've spammed this little diatribe ten times in different thread hijacks in two days, but then, Trump supporters don't need no stinkin' rules, you're "i gotta right!" kind of folks? Right?
We might as well make the proclamation, in your honor, of the new:
All we need now is Trumps face on the FR mast head.
You need to increase your posts-per-hour rate. Time is running out! The polls are now open in SC! Flank speed!
Oh, I dunno. But I don't apologize taking clothing and toys to a Mexican orphanage some years ago, and my former California church which I FULLY and ENTHUSIASTICALLY supported sent regular supplies to ministries south of the border.
Guess that makes me a radical, left wing "open borders" freak. OMG, and my wife and kids are brown skinned too! My wife is a (legal) immigrant and screaming US Patriot, so, that must make me a total, freaking Marxist. Right? That's your line of reasoning by innuendo on Cruz.
I make Cruz's gesture the mark of a Christian. I don't really care what kind of Trump-trash is spread about him.
Oh, and no, I'm not a Cruz supporter, just a CHRISTIAN supporter, and I'll make my political decisions based on my Christian world view.
May the best man win. We are all here because we love our country even though sometimes we don’t agree on individuals or ideas.
Thx.
Nov 26, 2015 - Donald Trump: Mean-Spirited GOP Won't Win Elections
Donald TRUMP: ....."The GOP has to develop a comprehensive policy "to take care of this incredible problem that we have with respect to immigration, with respect to people wanting to be wonderful productive citizens of this country," Trump says."....
Feb 19, 2016 Who's Dying in the Streets, Mr. Trump?
Rush LIMBAUGH: I don't believe this.
TRUMP: Well, I like the mandate. Okay, so here's where I'm a little bit different. I don't want people dying on the streets. I say this all the time. The Republican people, they're wonderful people. They don't want people dying on the streets. We're going to take care of them through maybe concepts of Medicare. We have hospitals that aren't doing well. We have doctors that aren't doing well. You cannot let people die on the street, okay? Taking care of people that are really, really sick and are going to die. That's not single payer, by the way. That's called "heart."
RUSH: Uhhhh, I'm just not feeling this, folks. In the first place, people are not dying on the street. Where does that come from? That's the second time that I've heard Mr. Trump say this. Where does this come from? Who is out there saying, "We can't let people keep dying on the street"? There aren't any Republicans saying that. If anybody's saying that, it's got to be a bunch of Democrats. But I don't know if any Democrats are saying it. It isn't happening! So where's this coming from? And "I like the mandate"?"........
