Ted Cruz for President

Ha!

 

Hahahaha! That is quality.

 

More proof that the Republican party doesn't want to win a presidential election. This could be their key chance to offer up something closer to the center, and take it all from the Democrats. Nope, not the plan. Instead, let's pick a few extreme right wing candidates.

 

Tell ya one thing, if Scott Walker wins, I'm leaving the country.

 

Pro-Jesus...only in today's America could this be considered a bad thing.
This country is completely f-ed.
I'm not Ted Cruz supporter, but the last 6 years of Obama have done some major damage to the USA

 

They've got a 3rd Bush to run, haven't they? I'm sure he's capable of winning. 'Murricans love to support a dynasty.

 

You can laugh all the way to the US becoming a third world country.
Immigration reform is a scam by the left wing to ensure power for eternity.
If they just enforced the laws on the books already you wouldn't need reform, starting with border security.

 

Honestly, I don't care what deity you choose to worship, but it better not cloud your views on factual scientific topics. And it sure as hell better not seep into your views on public education. I am not really an Obama supporter, but how is the country so much worse off than it already was before dude took office. Bush Jr. wasn't exactly what I would consider a stellar leader. Not evil, just not very intelligent.

 

stinkbug, never discuss politics with retards; you will never win. hahahahaha!!

 

o barry!

 

Neither major party appears to have much desire to put up a quality candidate. Dems are just fast asleep with Hillary long since presumptive despite the overwhelming evidence she is mediocre at best. The republicans are splitting up into factions as usual...the Santorum-social wing, the Cruz/Paul wing and the Romney "at least I'm bland and unoffensive" wing.

I wish this county was the kind of place where some intelligent third party candidate could come in and tear these idiots a new one.

 

Yeah, pretty much. Hillary isn't a great option either. I want some third party options, because the two party system sucks.

 

Exactly...new party is required; the two we have suck big time, as well as ALL their candidates. The evidence for a 3rd party need is Obama--a chronic , compulsive liar was elected. Hope the nation does better next time.

 

This thread makes it clear to me that the only thing missing in a liberal is liberalism. All functioning and successful social structures are by their very nature conservative. Familly sructure, business structure, governmental structure must be conservative. There is a need for a liberal voice to moderate the conservative momentum. But, when a liberal is in power it's like putting a spoiled child in charge of a candy store. They will eat as much candy as they can get their hands on without any foresight that they will get sick. Then they throw up all over the floor and leave a real mess to clean up onçe the grown ups come back.

 

Damage, like what?

Be specific and detailed. Your president has been busier than the last five presidents combined, but the other party's only concern hasn't been your welfare but blocking "the black guy."

And really, any of youse who fall for Ted's BS really don't have the intelligence to vote.

 

3rd party?

Yeah but no one votes for a 3rd party, no matter how much they complain aboot the other two.

And please describe, in detail with specifics, how Mrs. Clinton is just mediocre. Please provide examples, and I don't give two F's aboot what email account she uses or Benghazi. Real stuff please not fake-controversies.

Like it or not, or whether it was only circumstance and coincidence, this country's most prosperous era in the last 40 years was under the Clintons. No, Reagan made the poor, poorer, and the rich, richer. That's not prosperity. Plus Regan emptied out the Psych wards and now I have to deal with them all, which pisses-me-off. Everybody was doing ok under Clinton. Well, everybody who matters......

 

Dude, go back and look at our country's history:

Our most prosperous times have been created by "liberals."

"Liberals" also have rescued the country from every bone-headed policy republicans have enacted.

Basically, our good times are created by democrats and our bad times by republicans.

Don't buy that, then look-it-the-f-up. Do some research.

Eisenhower was good, but he wouldn't even be considered republican these days.

The Bushes crippled our economy.

Reagan killed the poor and made things cozy for the wealthy - how very republican of him.

Ford?

Nixon - ah not a moron, but way too 1950's Leave it to Beaver uptight. Thanks to him, your brother is doing five years because of a bag.

Ummm, Look at our unemployment rate these days fellows. Obama deserves the credit, as he is the one in charge, as our economy recovered after GWB ran it to the ground. But it's ok, because Bush sr and his pals made bank during them 8-years, which was the whole plan.

"Yeah, GW can't handle any of daddy's businesses so we'll put him in politics, have him mention Jesus all the time, and we'll run with the, "normal guy I could have a beer with" premise....

And it worked.

 

^^^This could not be more correct. The laws are on the books...time for both parties to start following the letter of the law and actually ENFORCE them. Are we seriously so worried that nobody will pick our fruit or clean our hotel rooms or (God forbid) do our construction work? Get real. Even if it were partially true, such a problem could be easily rectified by slight modifications to our Worker Visa program.

As far as Cruz goes: No. Not presidential timbre. Hillary? Don't we all remember how many questionable issues came up during her time with Bill? She's got so many skeletons in her closet, she doesn't have any room left for her Prada bags. In a wide-open debate, Hillary would be pilloried. Unfortunately, the liberal mass media would do their level best for Damage Control (just as they already do for "The Big O") while systemically and systematically digging under every single fingernail to find as much Repub dirt as possible.

But, the Repubs are idiots. Cruz? Perry? Jeb Bush? Haven't we had enough of the Bush's and the Clinton's? I Dynasties are too much like Monarchies in my opinion.

It was mentioned that the Right just hasn't picked up on the American pulse and continues to lean too far to it's conservative base. IMHO, this is most correct. Clinton, for all his (ahem) indiscretions, led the U.S. through a reasonably prosperous 8 year period, and had a strong follow-up candidate in Gore. Sensing this, the Repubs sent up GW with a message of "compassionate conservatism". Bravo!!! The American people knew that he wasn't the smartest peanut in the turd, but he had a message and a campaign that reached out to the majority of Americans at that time. It didn't hurt that Gore made a complete a$$ out of himself during the campaign, either.

My point is: Repubs need to get back to the center if they are serious about taking the White House. Most Americans, particularly Independents and swing voters, are currently in this bloc and will definitely be the deciding factor in the coming election. Both the Repubs and the Dems need to break away from their radical fringes if they ever hope to get a whiff of political office.

Most definitely, the current guy needs to go. It can't happen soon enough.
