The Fair and Relevant Question: After 8 Years of Obama, Why Should GOP Nominate a One-Term Senator?

[daws101]

Because the GOP doesn't actually believe all its own narrative about a one term senator being unqualified to be President

Cruz has a resume, Obama did not. Feel free to post Obama's resume if you wish to be mocked and made fun of.

*yawn*

Cruz is an idiot. Only idiots want him to be President. Only idiots think there's a realistic possibility he'll get elected. Stop being a shameless partisan hack. After the failure that has been the Obama Presidency, we do NOT need another junior Senator with crazy ideas. Especially one who acts like a 4 year old.

So your opinion is a guy with degrees from both Princeton and Harvard, and a long list of career accomplishments and awards, is an "idiot"? I recommend you refrain from voicing your opinion if only to avoid embarrassment.

 

[TheOldSchool]

Part of his resume is "domestic policy advisor" to George W. Bush!!!

Remind us how that turned out again?

Omg it gets better and better!

Appeal to emotion

• Appeal to emotion or argumentum ad passiones is a logical fallacy characterized by the manipulation of the recipient's emotions in order to win an argument, especially in the absence of factual evidence. This kind of appeal to emotion is a type of red herring and encompasses several logical fallacies, including appeal to consequences, appeal to fear, appeal to flattery, appeal to pity, appeal to ridicule, appeal to spite, and wishful thinking.

Nothing that has thing to do with executive experience, acting as an executive, or anything even remotely similar to being president.

All criticisms the right made of Obama preceding his election. All criticisms many on the right will likely ignore when pushing Cruz. As they didn't believe their bullshit to begin with.

Education =/= intelligence. Any baboon can be taught.

and a long list of career accomplishments and awards

Let's see....he got the government shut down in order to appeal Obamacare. But it didn't get repealed. And that's about it for that list.

CRUZ has more experience working in REAL JOBS. even Palin was more experienced than Obama being a governor. so your whining is just that. whining for sake of arguing

A good summery on things.... I agree with. I believe the American people are FED up with Obama/democrats even some Republicans. and all the nasty that is being UNLEASED on US daily since Obama was elected. vote for who you want folks. not what the media, democrats or Republicans has to say..My plea would be: vote out these progressive/democrats we've lived under with Obama.

Ted Cruz, the Anti-Obama
March 24, 2015 - 9:42 AM

By David Limbaugh



Sen. Ted Cruz's presidential announcement was immensely gratifying in numerous ways, including the venue he chose for it.

He made his announcement at Liberty University, which is a conspicuously Christian institution located in Virginia, the veritable birthplace of the United States of America.

In the world of political commentary today, we usually see analysis focusing on whether a politician or candidate hit the right themes and whether those — and he — will resonate with the voting public. The emphasis is usually on the game rather than the substance.

Possibly underlying such punditry is the cynical assumption that a political candidate who "hits all the right notes" is himself cynical, demagogic, opportunistic and a populist. There is a rigid reluctance to accept that someone actually believes the things he's saying if they happen to line up with what is thought to work politically.

One of the many things that distinguished Ronald Reagan from so many politicians was his unmistakable sincerity — the sense that unlike so many politicians, he cared more about the causes he was championing than his own political ambitions.

Cruz is nothing if not Reaganesque in terms of the policies he advocates and his boldness in proclaiming them. But many on the right, mostly the more moderate ones but not only them, have accused Cruz of opportunism, gamesmanship and charlatanism for staging a filibuster in the Senate that had little chance of working.

People will have to make their own assessments of a politician's sincerity and overall character, but I believe that those assessments are often colored by our ideological predispositions. The less conservative will be likelier to conclude that Cruz was insincere, selfish and on some kind of egomaniacal venture with his announcement.
