However, in order to lighten your load, let me for once and for all assure you, over my 65 years, I have developed and honed my survival instincts to a fine point, and through many trials, and errors, have come to realize just what is needed for my survival, those that I hold dear, and my home, this wonderful country, the best place on this planet.
I do not take my vote lightly, nor do I take the direction this country is going in lightly.
A real shooting civil war is closer than even level headed people think.
We don't get a handle on this, and turn it, all hell is going to break loose.
At this time, I am under no illusion that a hero will materialize, and "save us".
We do need someone as the CIC that can and will help dismantle the current behometh we, ourselves have created and allowed to flourish.
I don't think Cruz, or Trump, is going to fix things, but I do believe either one will at least start the dismantling process.
I gravitated towards Trump because he is not afraid to get in people's faces, and tell it like it is.
No more bullshit, no more soft spoken afraid to utter thoughts because the press might twist the words.
No more PC, I am looking for an in your face guy right now, and he fits the bill well.
Understand, either one is ok by me, but please do not worry your self thinking you are going to help me, save me, or protect me from my self destruction, by convincing me that your judgment regards this election is any better tested, thought out, or based on your years of experience to be the choice of choices.
I do appreciate one thing about you (well, one of many), you are not condescending, nose in the air, baffle 'em with bullshit kind of person, and as mich as I may disagree, I have no animosity to you.
Fare well over the coming storm.

I started out with Cruz but I’ve gravitated towards Trump. And while we were growing up, an in your face attitude was sometimes necessary, it wasn’t alway admired. At least not out here in fly over country.
But this isn’t the 50’s, 60’s or 70’s anymore. A lot of the wet behind the ears kids these days do understand and are more accepting, for various reasons (and not always good, I’ll grant you), of the in your face attitude. On the one hand, I don’t much care for it, on the other hand, however, I can see the point. I’m starting to have a feeling for it myself. I am finding it somewhat, liberating.
Trump is a product of one of the largest, most dynamic cities in the world. New Yorkers are know for their - in you face attitude. They don’t apologize for it. After 9/11, they put what ever differences they had with each other aside, pulled together, took care of their dead and wounded, and told the world to F.O.
Trump, a boy from the outer boroughs, made his bones in Manhattan. Not a place to get things done for the faint of heart.
I want fighter, a boxer, and brawler. We’re due for an in you face attitude to deal with the status quo. Cause the status quo hasn’t been serving us so well, for quite some time. And do not even suggest to me that Trump does not LOVE our country. I don’t believe that for a second.
I like both Trump and Cruz. We NEED both! But Cruz isn’t a leader, yet. And I think we need him more in the Senate right now.
We gotta pull together folks. This may be out last shot of saving our country. The barbarians really are at the gate.
