Roberts need to go.
How? I do not know
What has gotten our great nation in dire straits is a Federal Government that operates outside of its constitutional authority and in particular the executive of this administration.
Ted Cruz believes in the Constitution as written and is the most voracious defender of the Constitution. If we lose our Constitution all is lost. The Constitution is what allowed ordinary men to become an extraordinary nation of free men and women.
Please note the last six words of my tagline.
If Cruz is really an outsider, why did he become an insider?
We are in need of leaders with experience now more than ever, this is no time to try and win on style points..
Dirty Harry said it Best...
It’s a hell of a price to pay for being stylish
We need those who have and can do, dreamers have never taking their visions and turned it in to anything are not what we need NOW!
Mark Levin on his show today hammered this point home over and over, we are not going to get the perfect Conservative many want (the whole country has a say like it or not)
Basically he was saying if you are gonna stomp your feet and demand you get what you want because he meets a standard you feel more importance than actual behind the wheel time I will tell you there is a HUGE difference and we cannot afford inexperience, especially that in International affairs where he will be viewed as a puppy.
Answer this, what will Ted say to Vlad on their first meeting in this Vision you hold so dear. What would shake Vlad to say this guy has something I better be on my game
Please share and be realistic. I want to understand why it is you cling to so small a ledge for someone who has a steep mountain to climb to tackle the job
Could we please stop saying goomba when referring to Italians? Some of us goombas, including yours truly, support Ted and are loyal conservative FReepers.
Here is an article detailing his work with the FTC:
What No One Seems to Know About Ted Cruzs Past
He serves on the Armed Services, Judiciary, and Commerce, Science, and Transportation Senate Committees.
He is running a well organized campaign leading in hard money donations and a solid ground program.
Quite simply, he is the most consistent Constitutional conservative and is willing to take a stand to get things done.
Good, DOJ is good for him now lets move on to the Leadership position, I say Trump has the best qualifications for that role...
Sorry, I have my doubts about Trump’s demeanor and cutthroat business strategies translating well into political diplomacy. I am wary of his past support for eminent domain, single payer health care, gun control, and other unconstitutional positions. I see more of a sales pitch coming from marketing research than core constitutional beliefs.
I understand your concerns and I take shifting positions and other transformations into account. I am not one now nor ever have been capable of giving myself over to anyone or anything except God Almighty and folks down in congress can kiss my grits!
As to a Pure Constitutionalist that will progress over time, evolution is something that works and is accepted as it fits with what is actually occurring
We have a dynamic country and we also do not need a new bunch of rules & minders to keep us in line in yet another way...
Live Free or Die!
Your full of crap
I repeat your full of crap
I thought he had a lot more than $26 m. The problem is through June he spent $5m, more than double what Trump spent through SEPTEMBER! If you pro rate that, Cruz has spent close to $15m and that amount of spending is about to geometrically explode given that he just hired paid staff in every IA county.
“I love this guy and he has mega talent and charisma, but he needs a dose of charisma
Wait, he has charisma but needs more charisma?”
Good catch. Busted!!!
Cruz is building an effective ground game with enthusiastic supporters in dozens of states. I haven't seen the same from Trump.
Trump’s total lack of understanding of basic Christian doctrine is disturbing as well. He doesn’t need forgiveness, can’t quote a Bible verse, and points to Peale as his pastor of positive thinking. You would think that Trump would have an advisor that would set him straight. (and yes, we should be praying for him)
"Ground game" absorbs terrific amounts of money unless you have unions or students. It is quite traditional that you "need" this to win. So far, Trump has been the most unconventional candidate in history.
As the Director of the Federal Trade Commission's Office of Policy Planning, he created a task force on e-commerce to encourage competition on the Internet. His principle is to protect consumers, not billionaire real estate developers.
At DOJ, Ted Cruz helped lead the U.S. delegation to Rome for the Council of Europe's negotiations on a treaty relating to cybercrime. He recognized which country's delegate could be persuaded in order to get an agreement and got the terms of the treaty finalized. Notice that the president was not the one who negotiated.
