And those almost two hundred candidates have just as much of a chance a ol’ Ted Cruz does, slim and none……….and slim just left the building.

I ain’t gonna discount that socially disfunctional sloped nosed senator from Texas.
Stranger things have happened in history. Hitler and his Brownshirts were a chickenshit political party at one time but they kept chipping away until the next thing you knew…………………………………..
I’ve only watched one single clip of his “just imagine” sermon and the thing I did hear him mention was the flat tax.
You’ll not find a bigger supporter of a combination flat tax/national sales tax than me but I can’t see me EVER voting for that weird schlub.
If he got down on his hands & knees and swore on the Holy Bible that he would make it his #1 priority after being sworn in then I JUST might. I don’t give a rats ass about anything else he blabbed on and on about.
But the mention of a flat tax does make me hope it will come to pass but it is probably a pipe dream.
I don’t believe one major politician will really fight for it. They are all whores to the way the tax system is at present.

Every proposed flat tax has been grossly unfair. The flat tax presumes all citizens benefit equally from living in this country. That is not the case. The wealthy benefit far more than the poor and the average American from the bounty of the nation and from the money expended by Government. A flat tax essentially shifts taxes from the richest Americans to average Americans.

That’s why I said a combination national sales tax AND flat tax
No tax breaks whatsoever (anything that generates personal or corporate revenue, profits,wages,capital gains,whatever — gets taxed on a percentage basis)

Hmm, Jack makes Ten thousand dollars a year. John makes one hundred thousand dollars a year. Jack pays one thousand in taxes and John pays ten thousand. How is that grossly unfair exactly? Do you really think that John uses ten times the services that Jack does?

I’m not a fan of Cruz, but your comment is silly. The man was an honors graduate from Princeton and Harvard Law School. He was a champion debater as an undergraduate, and Law Review Editor at Harvard. He clerked for Chief Justice Rehnquist. His academic and public service records are impeccable – whether one agrees with him or not.

A Good Comparison March 24, 2015 at 9:31 am

Imagine a man with a Maserati. Nice car, most people would agree. Now imagine the owner put one of those shitty noisy mufflers you see on Honda Civics, painted the car camouflage, put a huge gaudy spoiler on it, and hung truck nuts on the back of it. Suddenly your amazement and admiration turns to shock, horror, disgust, anger, pity.

Imagine a man with such impeccable accolades as Ted Cruz. Nice resume, to be sure. Now imagine Ted Cruz running as a Tea Party Republican…

Boo hoo. There are baristas at Starbucks with degrees higher than others. Merits only mean something if you are able to make good use of them to better yourself, otherwise they are wasted. Cruz has bettered himself, that much you can’t deny, but with public service it isn’t about bettering yourself, but bettering the rest of the nation. Ted Cruz squanders his merits on being a bought hack at the beck and call of the ruling elites.

Yeah, golf claps for Ted’s previous work, he’s still a smug, self-serving waste of oxygen. If you want a better analogy go make it yourself.

As I said, I’m not a fan of Cruz. My comment related to an assertion that he was somehow not an adult. He’s clearly an extremely intelligent man, with exceptional academic and professional achievements to his name. That observation stands, and nothing that his been said relates to it.

Then you’d have to agree that Bill Clinton (a Rhodes Scholar with a shitload of professional achievements) and Ted Cruz are cut from the same bolt of cloth – correct?
Plus, something tells me no one ever stuck ‘ol Bill’s head in a commode back in high school – can you say the same for Ted Cruz?

aikencounty you have more problems with Aiken County Republicans then the republican national party has with Cruz. Cruz is a political lightweight whether he attended Harvard and Princeton does not make him a viable or serious candidate. But in good old Aiken and Aiken County the republicans a have pass. Take Wells for example. You NEVER did reply regarding his so-called $50,000 gift from convicted felon Jay Brookes. He, Wells had the audacity in claiming he was a “victim”? We still don’t, know if this asshole paid any money back as he is required to or where the hell he is working. Can’t tell me he is living on his rep pay?

All that tells me is that he is an excellent bullshitter who has never worked in the private industry since he left college (except for a few stints in law firms and then back to sucking the federal teat)
Just another overachieving wonderboy lawyer who talks for a living and prides himself for pondering how many angels can dance on the edge of the paper the Constitution is printed on without gettng a paper cut.
Public service record my ass……
Being a legal consultant for politicians and a “Hey Boy” for Chief Justices don’t mean shit to me as far as public service goes….
I got nothing against debaters but something tells me he might have got his head pushed inside a commode a time or two back in high school. Maybe that’s why he’s such a socially disfunctional ass now (I’ve read where hardly anyone sits with him during lunch).
One more thing:
Seems like I read that he renounced his Canadian citizenship just a few years ago…..Kinda strange that for someone who claims to love this country so much to not renounce his Canadian citizenship as soon as he was 18- 21 years old ain it?????
The guy’s what – 45 yearls old now?

Politicians that talk for a living like Cruz does never need a teleprompter.

Being an orator is all they’re good for

A worthless “gift” as far as I’m concerned

There’s no doubt that Cruz does not need a teleprompter – that’s because of years honing his debating skills to a fine edge (I understand he was captain of a number of debating teams).

That makes Cruz a “MASTERDEBATER” of the highest degree!!!!

Here are a couple of really good youtube videos to give you a clear understanding of why she is worthy of your support:

The name alone is perfect for a president “Ladies and gentlemen, the president of the United States, President Pinkney Butts…. “
