This is an excellent analysis of Ted Cruz's positions.

    Last I heard, Trump had spent only a fraction of what Cruz or other campaigns have spent. Just the other night I was watching Fox ( either Bret Baer or Hannity, I can't remember) and they said that they in ite all the campaigns equally to be interviewed but Trump is the only one who says yes. I don't know why the other ones dont appear, but its to their detriment. What's FNA ?
    (By the way, I'm still very undecided who to vote for, lest you think I'm advocating for Trump.)

    he can afford to run a staff that would saturate that system most can't. He's milking the money is free speech deal for all it's worth. But it shows what he really is and that's 'unacceptable' Soon we'll be getting unwanted popups and all that crap. Tailor made to our own beliefs. what a crock....having been there done that I couldn't imagine fighting for someone like that much less dying for the useless bastards in his National Socialist camp or whatever he's calling it these days. Worse Bernie and Waddle. Thank God for FNA.

    No, I don't watch their show, but they are part of the 'reality tv' culture, like all "The Wives" shows (of Beverly Hills, Atlanta, etc) Kris Kardashian was most recently married to the, ahem, former Bruce Jenner, and one of her daughters is married to a trashy rapper (or something). The overall point I was trying to make about them is that THAT is what "people" watch these days ! If there was an emergency bulletin that N.Korea was sending a nuke our way, and a Tweet that Kim and Kanye just had lunch somewhere, unfortunately way too many people would be following their Twitter feed about the Kardashians. So presidential candidates have to figure out how to compete against that kind of electorate. And that is precisely what I think Trump is purposely doing.

    Start off with 46% who are already fed up with being disenfranchised and that leaves 54% of eligibile voters for the left and 28% neeeded to win. well within reach of any of the lefts three candidates. Trumpet Boy, Clintonite, Bernie Bean Bag. Half the nation is already barred from participating.

    Well not for nothing. There was the paycheck...but as for any 'reason' learning to despise civilians about sums it up especially those of the left wing fascist variety. That was certainly worth something. In the end it was 'for and with the unit' and of course for the oath of office. But the rest was garbage. I often laugh at the silly as thanks for serving your country notion. Can't remember that ever happening. We served the Constitution and still do. That part is never retired.

    The original, and most prolific known terrorist organization, unknown to most undoubtedly, is the state of Israel. Do a web search for King David Hotel Bombing or USS Liberty. Here's more information on the role of Israel in global terror:

    So you're going to buy into the whole Zionist conspiracy thing, huh? Okay, then.

    You still didn't answer my question: would you rather side with a known terrorist organization?

    Not a supporter of any of the puppets of Israel, and certainly not a supporter of Trump. Again, Cruz, as are all of them with the possible exception of Gary Johnson, is a puppet of Israel.

    And burying your head in the sand, not caring what the Kardashian's of the world are doing, with only your own opinion to keep you company, is the way to keep getting sent to war for "nothing" (although that is a whole separate argument). If you don't know what the masses are thinking, you can't either fight against it or be prepared for it. They're not an excuse. They're an unfortunate reality. Trump is making use of them (imo) in his campaign style. If he thought the electorate was smarter or paid attention to more than 140 characters at a time, he would be (imo) running a different kind of campaign. Just think of knowing who the Kardashians are as situational awareness.

    Democrats are leftists. The left is a collective entity that has no opinions and takes no actions on it's own. If they do make something an issue the definitions have doubtless been changed. That includes RINOs

    I don't like the flat tax as it's still an income tax and therefore fascist in nature putting government over citizens as opposed to the citizens over government end user consumption tax. But it wouldn't stop me from setting that aside for the moment to support a coalition of return to the Constitutionalists whose main platform plank was the destruction of socialism.

    Stop enabling
    Take Control
    Make changes
    in that order.

    Your opinions are not facts and I refuse to accept any of your rantings or personal definitions just the same as I refuse to accept those of the left.

    What is the vast reality tv watching public to me and why should 'I care. There the same bastards that kept sending me to war for nothing. Using them as an excuse is far more subjective a fairy tale than the frog elements in this pond. The only thing I care about is my opinion. I'm not a collectivist doing seig heil chants.

    We already had our primary here, we went for Cruz after my first choice of Rubio was already out. Yes, I can see the clowns going for Jeb, or Romney, maybe Ryan. The CFR had long ago declared they wanted Jeb.I really think they would rather lose to Hillary than risk anyone shaking the boat and their power deals.

    Well, you could respond by pointing out where I am mistaken (if I am). And why you think the Democrats won't make it an issue. Beats name calling.

    First, I thought we were talking about the primary. You still have to pick someone.
    You really believe the convention put up a new candidate? C'mon. Romney? Gary Johnson? Those mainstream clowns would probably all go for Jeb.
