Dear Daddy Cruz:

IF pulling the rug out from under Dr. Ben Carson at the VERY FIRST caucus or primary-—in Iowa-—with e-mails & tweets to caucus voters which your son’s Campaign staff did——and those communications were lies which caused many caucus goers to switch their vote from Carson to your son——

Then, YOU & YOUR SON have an entirely different God than I have ever heard about. I am now 76, so maybe I missed the boat.

Your SON has shown a propensity to lie to and about other candidates. He acts more like a gospel tent preacher than a President.

I will NEVER vote for him.

Have been a registered Republican for over 55 years-—I think that is longer than your son has been living.

It sounds like Ted's father is either senile, confused or dishonest. He has apparently forgotten the Ninth Commandment; for it is obvious that Ted has repeatedly violated it by bearing "false witness" against Donald Trump by cherry picking long past incidents and statements completely out of their logical context, and then further misrepresenting them to disparage Donald Trump.

If the man is too senile, confused or dishonest, to remember one of the tenets of his Faith, he is too dangerous to listen to when he recommends a candidate.

Under the circumstances, Ted is not honoring the Fifth Commandment, either, by not protecting his Dad's reputation, by quietly advising him to close his trap.

Just some spontaneous reactions to this thread.
