1. I am not being paid to oppose Ted Cruz
2. I am not supporting another candidate, I have not endorsed any candidate and am unlikely to do so until a week or so before the Michigan primary.
3. I do believe in conservative principles which is why Cruz troubles me. It isn’t that Cruz isn’t a conservative, he is. I don’t simply want a conservative to be President, I want a conservative who will be effective as President. There just isn’t any evidence that Cruz will be effective, largely because he has no experience. He’s never gotten anything done in the Senate, which is understandable considering he’s only been there two years.

So I am guessing that your position is that a Governor makes a better President because he gets something done, is that correct observation on my part?

Oh, and Obammy Boy DID get things done in his state senate position---the few times he showed up to vote?

Cruz has a tremendous intellect and has emerged as a dynamic natural-born leader in a party full of tired old RINOs who DON'T get anything done except to rubberstamp anything the 'rats put forward. They are not giving their constituents authentic representation. If their constituents wanted 'rat policies in place, they would have voted for the 'rat candidates.

Cruz has risen to the top of a collection of truly ill-qualified Presidential wannabes who have offered nothing that their 'rat masters would not approve of.

Therefore, I heartily disagree with your opinion that Cruz would not make a great President. I think that he would bring back the pride people used to feel when they said they were an American. We would no longer feel humiliated compared to other world powers, and could retake our position of preeminence among the nations. And Cruz, a REAL man among men, would sure as HECK not be caught BOWING to the heads of other nations.

Cruz is an ADULT who would not throw an internationally witnessed tantrum every time his will was thwarted. I do not believe he would attempt (and then deny) tampering with the elections of other countries.

I believe that Cruz would strengthen our hollowed-out defenses to discourage attacks from without and within. The Bammy Child has done quite the opposite. His laying bare our nation for attack is despicable, as are most of the actions which he has undertaken.

I believe that Cruz could work effectively with Congress as the Constitution intended, not rule with "pen and phone" by fiat. Obammy Boy pisses on our Constitution every single day.

I also believe that Cruz is quite capable of recruiting truly excellent people to support his administration and to tutor him in areas where he lacks expertise.

Your arguments appear to be based on opinion, with no supportive evidence to back them up.

Scott Walker has gotten things done, passed conservative laws in his state, lowered taxes, defeated the communists/democrats etc. So do you support Scott Walker? I do .
