Protecting their little girls is Mrs. Cruz’ highest priority right now.

I have no doubt they love them, but they sure have dragged those little girls into this campaign with a gusto that is disturbing to me.

There is a ton of footage on YouTube of those kids. What other candidate has done that?

Use your instincts. Does it seem that Heidi and Ted (especially Ted) has used those girls as a prop?

Every candidate poses with their family for a photo or a for the cameras when accepting the nomination or winning some race. But this seems awfully contrived, staged, and in the extreme. Doesn't any of this come across to you as weird or creepy?

"Look, see my family. What a great father and husband am I. I am such a good Christian with a perfect family. Am I not the perfect father and husband?" /s

Obviously a pathetic attempt to prove to the world that he is a family man with real family values. - yeeech!

Cruz showed everyone his true character when he entered the race for President. He knew that he did not qualify as a Natural Born Citizen, but he also knew that enough damage had been done to our Constitution by Obama, that he could bluff most of the people into supporting him. That betrayal of conservative priciples should have alerted anyone paying attention that Cruz would betray us by siding with the Establishment in secret, while also betraying his family and faith.

It’s pretty much what one would expect from someone who used to be in a high school drama club and in debate; producing a good presentation of a message is key in real world drama, as well as on a stage. It seems to bother some, but it doesn’t bother me. Trump has the advantage that his children are adults, so no one has negative feelings about them. It’s all emotion all the time nowadays, which is not something I expected to see so much from here.

I did find one thing odd about this primary season, when we received a drawn portrait of Dr. Carson in the mail. I think it was the only time we got something in snail mail from his campaign. It was a nicely rendered picture but seemed like an peculiar item to send when policy stands would’ve been more useful.
