Rick Perry to Help Recruit Veterans for Ted Cruz (Chris Kyle's Widow, Seal Marcus Luttrell)
Texas Tribune ^ | 2/12/2016 | Patrick Svitek

GREENVILLE, S.C. - Former Gov. Rick Perry is joining a new group that plans to organize veterans in support of Ted Cruz's presidential campaign.

The group, a super PAC known as Keep the Promise to Veterans, will allow Perry to ramp up his involvement in Cruz's presidential effort after endorsing the U.S. senator from Texas last month. Perry, an Air Force veteran, has already recruited some supporters of his own to help with the super PAC: former Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell, Medal of Honor recipient Dakota Meyer and Taya Kyle, the widow of Navy SEAL sniper Chris Kyle.

"As you know, Gov. Perry's passionate about veterans' issues, and he wants to make sure that veterans issues do not get lost in the discourse and decided that getting involved this way would be an ideal way to keep veterans issues at the forefront," said Kathy Walt, the treasurer of the super PAC and a former chief of staff to Perry.

Keep the Promise to Veterans was officially formed Thursday, according to records with the Federal Election Commission. It is listed as affiliated with three other pro-Cruz super PACs organized under the Keep the Promise umbrella.

Even Rick Perry once a decade maybe does something right!

Many FReepers aren’t conservative. Supporting Trump proves that.

They just don't support Canadian Liars

Romney and McCain were guys who could win, as well.

No...they were guys who were doomed to lose, especially with WHITE voters...the only ones who count.

bro, there are things called books, and movies, and museums, and concerts, and dates, and friends in 3d, i’ll mist it but i’ll live.

how much do you give a month to the board you love so much?

a hell of a lot less than i give because i love the board.

what do you give, 100 for something you care about so much?

i wont post to you again. that comment the other day was way out of hand, i’m sorry.

I get very emotional about 9/11. I worked in those towers and they were beautiful.

she has to give a speech as CEO but she didn’t have to praise islam as the greatest culture ever. it hurt.

Once again my apologies.

Have a good weekend FRiend.

Which is why you should support Cruz. in polls he beats Hilary head to head, Trump does not.

You’re right. This country made a big left hand turn these past 7 years. So that is why it is time for this country to make a big RIGHT hand turn in November. Cruz can win the general and if nominated, he will.

Apology accepted FRiend, I respect you for being man enough to own up to your remarks.

If you go back and check, you'll see that I posted to you that I detested her remarks too.....but forget it, it's easy to get into arguments when we're all heated and emotional....I do understand that

For the record, I back both Cruz and Trump, albeit for entirely different reasons.

My goal is to pay back the elitist and traitors that we the Tea Party worked so hard to elect. Cruz and Trump fit that bill, though I think Trump a little more so.

I do think we should all concentrate on elevating the conversations here though, it's getting out of hand.

i’ve done my part to get it out of hand.

i NEVER followed a primary before and nopardons told me it gets heated. I was like, no way!! what idiot would get mad.

Me!!!!! lol

it’s so much easier just pulling R against D. not so easy R against R.

it looks like trump will wrap this thing up, and Cruz will grow up more and be around for ‘24. and we can all back one guy soon, i figure by March.

If you’re really from Vegas, how do you stay away from the caainos :)

was there three months ago and it was great.

there’s one actually 20 minutes from my house now at JFK but miraculously, thank you God, i haven’t gone.

I go to AC every four months.
