Something [someone] to be excited about for the first time in 7 years.
I feel de-stressed all of a sudden. Hope and pray his star continues to soar!
Thanks for the ping Jim. Exciting!
Oh brother. The only reason you posted that is that you are basically anonymous.
I support the platform of Mr. Cruz:
Becoming energy self-sufficient,
repealing every word of Obamacare,
making health insurance personable and affordable,
a simple flat tax,
abolishing the IRS,
securing the borders,
standing for the first amendment rights of every American,
defending the sanctity of human life,
upholding the sacrament of marriage,
protecting the right to keep and bear arms,
protecting the privacy rights of every American,
repealing every word of Common Core,
embracing school choice of public, charter, Christian, parochial and home schools,
standing with the Nation of Israel (standing ovation),
Ted Cruz has Tea Party values – he wants a much smaller Federal government and less government interference in the lives of the American people. This agitates Washington politicians on both the Left and the Right, as a good number of them seem to enjoy their power and their prestige.
Ted Cruz promised that as President he would have a flat income tax with fair equitable taxation for all Americans. He would secure our border. He would shut down ObamaCare and would reduce the size and reach of our government.
Ted Cruz has better ideas and more courage than most Republicans do in Congress. Ted Cruz would accomplish much, returning the size and scope of our Federal government to its intended boundaries. Such courage frightens both Democrats and Republicans.

Malthusian nonsense from the lips of just another control freak. Singapore does just fine without either resource. So does Hong Kong. Switzerland doesn't have oil or cheap labor either.
And it would help if young people nowadays would learn not to MUMBLE!
This guy gets what I mean. I think he REALLY nails it when he notes how Cruz seems to believe “that every line deserves to be an applause line.”
I like Cruz more than any other candidate. But he needs to learn to talk. Cruz’s speech at Liberty University should have been delivered in ten to fifteen minutes, not thirty.

In order to have limited government you need to have unlimited resources.

They’re at the top of the food chain.

You’ll probably want to explain yourself.
Read today that Mexico is undercutting China on manufacturing auto parts, that’s quite a swing from 10-15 yrs ago.
So were we. And they still manufacture excellent everyday goods at fair prices.
Pretty darn close : )
We all owe a tip of the hat to SoConPubbie, and 2ndDivisionVet, who have been keeping all of us up on Cruz activities from Day One!
LOL, right!
Bump!
Tip o the hat Bump!
Thanks SJB and 2DV!
