http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/10/politics/ted-cruz-guns/index.html Three days after a young man named Dylann Roof fatally shot nine people in a historic church in South Carolina—the latest in a string of gun massacres across the U.S.— Ted Cruz campaigned at a shooting range in Iowa. Bold move for a politician? Perhaps. But the decision reflects Cruz's deepening alliance with the powerful gun lobby and his effort to cast himself as an unapologetic warrior for the Second Amendment. |

His stance in he 2a is solid but I don't think he can make America great again.
|
|
Ooooh no not the "powerful gun lobby!" I get the heebee jeebies just thinking about them!
|

It should be a given that someone running/being the leader of this country is going to be a second amendment supporter.
|
|
|
Probably about as solid as Rafael's stance on the 1st amendment, where it goes out the window if he thinks he can make political gain from it.
Sort of like him marrying a woman who wants to do away with US sovereignty, borders and the Constitution via the North American Union...all while professing to "support" the Constitution. Never trust a man who runs from his name. |

Love an individual or hate him. I'd never "compromise" or vote for the "other" party out of spite, because the person you didn't like or the person you did, didn't get the nomination... I don't care who you are... you stand strong on the second and you'll get my vote.
It truly is issue number one at the top of my list. |

But again, lets not try to dispel the stereotype of a typical Trump supporter |

Quoted:
Voted twice to get him in the Senate. View Quote To date, I have voted for him four times. The first was in primary for the senate. Second time was the primary runoff between him and Dewhurst. Third time was the general election that year for his senate seat and the last time was this year. I sure hope I get to vote for him in November. Having said that, if Trump gets the nod then I will vote him. |

In November you will have one choice that is better than Hillary. One choice, and one choice only. You guys waste an incredible amount of time on this bullshit, on top of sounding inconsistent about your beliefs. |

I used to support the AWB and reasonable gun control laws.
But now I don't. That makes me a strong supporter of the Second Amendment. Does it not? Cheers! -JC |

His stance in he 2a is solid but I don't think he can make America great again. View Quote The only real chance we have of making America great again is to get her back to the principles upon which she was founded. Cruz has the best understanding and stance on the constitution and therefore, in my opinion, is the best equipped to do so. I will vote for Trump if he gets the nomination, though. I would just prefer Cruz. |

I believe all politicians like I believe Hillary Clinton doesn't want our guns.
|
|
I voted for Cruz in the primary
some people would say I am a single issue voter but the reality is that if we lose the freedom to be lawfully armed, we lose the Constitution in it's entirety and that will bring civil war to this country and I do not want that I want freedom and peace and that requires the freedom to be lawfully armed |
|
I think he is a great candidate, but at this point, lets Trump it up and put Cruz on the SC. 38 yo guy who will sit for 30+ yrs. Can do a lot more to help this country

It took 3 fucking posts for some faggot to bring up another faggot.
Goddamn faggot trumpers. I can't wait for this election to end. |

Did he make the announcement in English or was he speaking in tongues?

Cruz is a punk.
If a man won't stand up for right vs wrong and speak out against the mobs what is he ever likely to need the 2A for? Cruz is a lay down. |

According to the gun grabbing trumpets. Cruz campaign is over, he does not deserve to be in the senate and needs to go back to Canada.
Edit I voted in early voting for Cruz today and if I was a democrat I would do it again. |

And as good as this is....a metric ton of whiners got their feels hurt because Ted said Trump was using too much vitriol in his campaign. This was after the riot at Trumps would be rally and while he also blamed the savages for what happened last night.
Timing might have been bad, but reasons like this I still support Ted. Too bad so many people whined and jumped ship last night. Their feelz got in the way of substance. |

I laugh out loud at all the IDIOTS who are incapable of more than one dimensional thinking. Two separate issues took place, but some people can't see or hear that. They only have their feelz.

For being such a pro-gun guy, Ted Cruz has NOT helped with the illegal 30.06/30.07 signs being posted in at various government-owned properties in Texas, despite Texas having passed a law clarifying that over 6 months ago. I am not all that happy with him as my Senator
