I write to you this morning my fellow Americans, my fellow patriots and fellow Christians because God has put it on my heart to make this appeal to you. I am not here to bash you or tell you your choice is wrong. I am going to ask you to just respectfully listen to what I have to say and then I in turn, respectfully leave the decision to you. I ask as a patriot who for the past several years has fought for everything we value and who fully understands the anger and frustration with our politicians.
What I ask this morning is to please open your hearts, your minds and tap into your wisdom as I tell you about Ted Cruz. Don’t close the page; don’t just tune out because I said Senator Cruz’s name. You are not stupid and I think you can handle what I have to say as if I were there with you stating my case.
First, let me dispel some myths that are just so far off yet; seem to be propagated across social media. Ted Cruz is not a globalist and has always fought for the sovereignty of our country. His wife, Heidi is not a globalist and the smears against her were created by the John Birch Society and used by his opponent in his race for the Senate. You can read about it here in this article; Anatomy of a Smear – Heidi Cruz.
Ted Cruz has never been an establishment candidate and in fact, the establishment hated him because he stuck to the values and principles that his people elected him for. He has never taken money from George Soros and he is not in the pocket of banks or Wall Street.

Not going to click the link but does it mention him being born in Canada? Thanks in advance for your reply.
Rafael Cruz is ineligible to seek the Presidency of the United States, so his entire argument is irrelevant.
If only Trump supporters cared. They are so bound in they project Trump as the pure and saintly - nothing is ever his fault and Cruz is the devil himself - the cause of every problem in the world indeed universe.
Thanks to the author for sharing. Trump supporters will bash without reading.
Each man has a lot to offer this nation. I could live with either of them at the helm. I want this infighting between them to stop though. I do not care who ‘started it’. I really don’t. It’s become a distraction.
William Allen White (February 10, 1868 – January 29, 1944) was a renowned American newspaper editor, politician, author, and leader of the Progressive movement. Between 1896 and his death, White became the iconic spokesman for middle America.
I’ve read the “Building a North American Community” from CFR’s website. Heidi Cruz’s name is on the document.
(Kiss My Lilly White Arse!)
Pure BS. I refuse to vote for Creepy McCreepster Cruz
Didn’t you opus out?
At one time I was a Cruz supporter. But have slowly became a Trump supporter over time. The events of the last month or so have completely soured me on Ted. He is not the Ted I thought I knew.
We do care. I actually liked Cruz when he was in the Senate. He stopped Obama's amnesty and almost stopped Obama's shutdown.
He is not eligible to run for the Presidency; and he is being used by the Republican establishment to stop Trump. He has sided with Soros-funded leftist agitators to score cheap political points rather than side on the rule of law and a fellow candidate.
Cruz has a habit of using 3rd-party surrogates and spokespersons to attack Trump, then whine when Trump calls him out on it.
No wonder Governor Palin dumped his sorry ass. Cruz has no business running for President and I can't wait until he withdraws.
Project much?
I may be a Trump supporter, Trumpette, Trumpster, whatever, but am very willing to read others’ thoughts and opinions and so on. I will weigh information carefully.
I know Trump is no saint. No one on earth is.
I have said I would vote for Cruz if he was the nominee. I take it, you would not do the same with Trump. So, tell me who is the more close-minded?
The nation that has killed 60 million babies is under judgement from YHWH. He is done with the United States of America.
We have been under judgement ever since the 1962 School Prayer ruling. The first official Muslim Brotherhood front organization founded in the U.S. was the Muslim Students Association (MSA), established on the Urbana-Champaign campus of the University of Illinois in 1964. The Muslim Brotherhood is a type of the Assyrian that YHWH used to bring judgement on the 10 tribes that made up Israel. Al Qaeda is an off-shoot of the Muslim Brotherhood. Their 9/11 attack was a perfect fulfillment of Isaiah 9:8-13.
Since the 1973 Roe v. Wade things have really gotten worse. Since then we have never won a war, before then we never lost one. With Obama we finally got Isaiah 3:4-5 “I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them. The people will be oppressed, everyone by another and every one by his neighbor; The child will be insolent toward the elder and the base to the honorable.”
All this moral decay was codified by Judges, just as the moral decay in Sodom and Gomorrah was, according to the Jewish sages, was codified by Judges. That puts us as “in the days of Lot” (Luke 17:28-37). The “great sign in the heavens” from Revelation 12:1-2 actually occurs on September 23-24, 2017. See the image at: http://i.ytimg.com/vi/_1y_hLqVXf4/maxresdefault.jpg
So Ted Cruz is “in this race to show this country the face of the God that we serve”, as his wife has stated, which is part of the Dominion Heresy (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominion_Theology), that believes that Conservative Christians need to take control of the secular government and rule over the non-Christians, for the good of all, of course.
Now if you believe that anything that we, as humans, can do will change the judgement to come, then you are not paying attention. But you are paying attention, so now you know why it is not a good idea to support Ted Cruz.
As for Donald Trump, I view him as a type of Samson, whom YHWH raised up to bring down the Temple of Dagon on the Philistines. Read Judges 13-16 and then look at the characteristics Donald Trump shares with Samson: Doesn’t drink, ever; has really wild hair; is really harsh if you treat him badly or unfairly; ran around with a lot of foreign women.
Now look at Donald Trump’s slogan: “Make America Great Again”. Alexis de Tocqueville said: “America is great because she is good. If America ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.” Donald Trump knows that in a country overrun with Philistines one can not campaign on “Make America Good Again”. However, if you look at what he says he will do, how offended he is by people lying about him, how offended he is with dirty tricks, how he hates the corruption in American government, etc. you know that he is trying to do is make America good again. So Donald Trump is bringing people out of the shadows, so to speak, and giving them hope that things can be better. This puts them out in the world where the Holy Spirit can bring believers into contact with those who are to be saved. So that is the spiritual aspect of the Trump campaign.
On the Bible Prophecy side, how is YHWH going to convince the Iranians that 2017 would be about the last time they, with their allies, can wipe out the United States and attack Israel to wipe it off the map?
How about we elect Donald Trump and he starts to make the American Military so strong that no one will want to mess with us? How about if he starts to root out the Muslim Brotherhood infiltration of the Government? In fact, the threat of having Donald Trump in the Whitehouse may well trigger the attack that is described in Ezekiel 38:10-13, which YHWH does not stop, so that the attack in Ezekiel 38:14-23, which YHWH will stop can take place. Then the End will come.
When the world gets to these critical points, there isn’t anything one can do to change the course set by YHWH for the world. It is much easier if you focus on that narrow way YHWH has for you to do as your part in His magnificent Word.

Now, if any of the Consistent Conservatives had applied even part of this over the past 30 years the country would not be in the shape it is in today. Instead Consistent Conservatives have stood, marched, and yammered for “family values”, “small government”, “lower taxes”, etc., all while just the opposite happened, over and over again. One betrayal of principle after another.
Here is what Donald J. Trump says at the end of The Art of the Deal:
What’s Next
Fortunately, I don’t know the answer, because if I did, that would take half the fun out of it.
This much I do know: it won’t be the same.
I’ve spent the first twenty years of my working life building, accumulating, and accomplishing things that many said could not be done. The biggest challenge I see over the next twenty years is to figure out some creative ways to give back some of what I’ve gotten.
I don’t just mean money, although that’s part of it. It’s easy to be generous when you’ve got a lot, and anyone who does, should be. But what I admire most are people who put themselves directly on the line. I’ve never been terribly interested in why people give, because their motivation is rarely what it seems to be, and it’s almost never pure altruism. To me, what matters is the doing, and giving time is far more valuable than just giving money.
In my life, there are two things I’ve found I’m very good at: overcoming obstacles and motivating good people to do their best work. One of the challenges ahead is how to use those skills as successfully in the service of others as I’ve done, up to now, on my own behalf.
Don’t get me wrong. I also plan to keep making deals, big deals, and right around the clock.

Rafael Cruz is not eligible to run for President or VP. He will get destroyed if he's nominated; he will weigh down the Trump ticket if he's the VP to the point where Hillary can focus on the race.
Rafael Cruz needs to return to the Senate and continue to fight the rest of Obama's term.
