Could Ted Cruz make the Constitution ‘cool’ again?

And yes, they are Pro Cruz.

UPDATE: The images appear to be the work of a Los Angeles artist Leonard Sabo, who posted an attempt at the design back on March 9. I’ve reached out to Sabo for comment, and will update when I hear back. His political and artistic views are, uh, interesting, to put it mildly, most offensive of which is that he seems to think Cruz could actually be president some day.

“Actually, kinda cool looking,” wrote one Free Republic commenter. “Maybe we can all get tats and stuff and form a ‘gang’. Call it the Patriot Gang or something. Put some drive-by fear into the liberals.”

Ted needs to distance himself from this trash!


Ted doesn’t need to do anything but be himself.

If liberals were to determine that the images actually came from the Ted Cruz organization, it would be over.

In our current political culture with a dominate left media, a known conservative messenger is shot down well before the message can be heard.

If the “messenger” is unknown and/or is a “Street Artist” the value of the message grows and can gain traction because the media doesn’t have anyone to attack.

It’s a form of “Culture Jamming”.

I think the idea behind these images is brilliant! I like the attitude they portray. If the media can create a “cult of personality” around the misfit President currently occupying the office, why can’t the same be done with Ted Cruz? For the younger people to even want to hear the words coming out of Senstor Cruz’s mouth, he must first have some street cred.

He posted a reply on twitter “I don’t smoke”

He signed a poster when he was in LA.

Hardly a connection.

Endorsement ?

Maybe, but I have no problem with that.

I don’t claim to be some expert on our culture, however I do know things that you may not.

Had never seen the "original" before, but I quickly thought of Johnny Cash.

BINGO

I actually think this is a plus for Cruz. Those who know and have followed him will take them for what they are, but there’s millions of people who have never heard a good word about him and still others who have never heard of him at all.

The old saying “any ink is good ink” seems applicable here.
