“...a slightly changed version of a very old speech...”
How does that square with the ‘Mad Libs’ in the title? Does the person who puts in the header actually read the article? Do these people have an editor?!

It is doubtful that the greatest orator in the history of the Roman Senate is anything but some obscure old dead white man to the people surrounding the usurper or himself. But to those of us with some knowledge of history Cruz’s use of Cicero’s oration in defense of his republic is sublime.

Where is the leadership on this issue, and many others, from the other potential POTUS candidates like Scott Walker and Rand Paul?
Hardly a word from them on this issue for several months now.
Do they really want to be POTUS?
Do they really want to lead?!

Cicero: quoted by JFK, quoted by Goldwater and now quoted by Cruz.

Of course, it did not end well for Cicero.
