VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. - Texas Senator Ted Cruz said the upcoming presidential election is now more important than ever when it comes to defending the Bill of Rights.
Cruz was in Virginia Beach, Va., at Regent University's Presidential Candidate Forum courting evangelicals ahead of Super Tuesday, March 1.
"Just a few days ago I attended Justice Scalia's funeral. And his passing underscores that the stakes of this presidential election are not just one, but two branches of government," Cruz noted.
"We are one liberal justice away from a five-justice left wing majority, the likes of which this country has never seen that will undermine our basic rights," Cruz told the audience.
"We are one liberal justice away from the Supreme Court ordering veterans memorials torn down all over this country, and I tell you we're not far away from the court ordering the chisels to come out to remove the crosses and the stars of David from the tombstones of fallen soldiers. That's what the stakes are in this election," Cruz added.
Cruz, referencing a comment by GOP frontrunner Donald Trump from the most recent debate, said he has no intention of cutting a deal with Harry Reid and nominating a justice who isn't true to the constitution.

You know nothing. Truly sad. Here, have a tissue.
The issue is not moot-Donald Trump donated to Harry Reid, that was a very bad thing. AND Harry Reid et all WILL have votes on a nominee whom WILL vote to take away your gun and First Amendment rights.. How will you explain to posterity that you voted for a man who didn’t take our rights seriously??
Trump screwed a few women.
GOP-e screwed the entire country.
Some things never change.
But, to be fair, he did go to Princeton and Harvard, which have never been real big on cis-het-white men.
...come to think of it, he *is* demonstrating the "other" way to be safe from bimbo eruptions. Either have all the women *still* want you, like Trump... or *none* of them, like Cruz. /ba-dum t'sssh>
So was Reagan at one time.
As for the university, seems well liked by its students. Pretty glowing testimonies from all but one malcontent.
Keep trying. So far your childish posts have convinced no one.
I don't have to ask Phyllis Schlafly to know that Rubio--who ran on a Tea Party platform that he abandoned the moment he crossed the Fourteenth Street Bridge to the left bank of the Potomac--is a hack. I just hope Cruz doesn't endorse him.
