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.

Too bad those fine folks can’t make Cruz more electable. Don’t get me wrong. Cruz is an excellent public servant. But we need to win this time.

Taya Kyle, the widow of Navy SEAL sniper Chris Kyle.

Ugh. I feel for her tragedy and clearly she is still in mourning. I think she is a good person but very depressed understandably. Hopefully she will change her mind by the time she votes.

It only took 7 posts to imply Mrs. Kyle is mentally confused or not capable of thinking clearly.

Good job.

She backs Cruz? I know you’re a big Trump guy and it is one of the reasons there could be hope for trump.

The character of a man’s voters tells a lot.

You too. Honestly I am looking forward to tomorrow night. Should be a really good debate. As much as we have some fun drama around here, it is NOTHING at all what the Democrats are going through.

A victory for a guy who is a lying punk, Trump, isn’t my idea of winning. Romney and McCain were guys who could win, as well. I think Trump is clueless about judicial prospects. W e can only go by the leftist fiends to whom he has donated.
If I had speculated a year ago that many Freepers would support a man who has been a Clinton, Pelosi, Reid, Schumer and Crist donor, people here would want me committed to an asylum. Yet, thanks to staking out a few good positions and delivering pabulum divorced from his record over five decades, it has happened. Un-freaking-believable.

Anyone who hinks Rick Perry is for American citizens is off their meds.

Isn’t he an ex democrat?
