George Washington once said, “The Constitution is the guide which I never will abandon.” He would be horrified if he walked into Washington D.C. in modern day America. Not only have the liberties and freedoms outlined by the Constitution been perverted, diminished and taken away, but our country has begun to crumble. We live in a land of big government, endangered freedom, moral decay and corruption.
As a Millennial, the state of our country absolutely disgusts me. So many in my generation have completely bought into the lies that Bernie, Hillary and the left are selling, believing that big government will save us and ignoring the fact that nothing free actually comes without a price. Modern day politics makes me tired; I am exhausted by the corruption in Washington, career politicians and the lies both parties sell.
If we don’t want America to continue this downward spiral, something drastic must change. We need an outsider, one who has fought against the Washington elite. We need a courageous conservative. We need Ted Cruz.
Why Cruz? There are many reasons why I have endorsed this candidate. First of all, the man has a strong foundation built upon the right priorities. He worships his Maker above all else, and prioritizes his wife and family.
Ted Cruz also believes that the government has trampled upon the Constitution, and he will do everything he can to uphold and protect it. His record proves that he has fought for the Constitution and won time after time. In a time when Washington is ignoring the very foundation we were built on, Cruz continues to defend our core and uphold the Constitutional liberties we have been given as Americans.
Cruz also sees the moral decay that America is facing, and he has fought against it and will continue to do so. He has fought for biblical based marriage and continues to fight to hold every bit of ground we still have. He has fought for the protection of innocent babies against slaughter at the hands of abortionists and Planned Parenthood, and will continue to make the protection of unborn citizens one of his greatest priorities.
He is a man who fights for the defense of our country, whether it be against ISIS or whether it is simply allowing the citizens to defend themselves through the 2nd Amendment. He is not afraid to call out radical Islamic terrorism for what it is, and he will utterly destroy ISIS. He will not treat our service men and women like they are burdens instead of people to be honored and respected. Americans will be able to carry out their 2nd Amendment freedoms under a Cruz administration without fear of restriction.
Finally, Cruz has and will continue to fight against the monster we have created in Washington. He will fight to increase state’s rights and decrease the size of government. Leading the charge against the giant amount of debt Washington’s methods have landed us in, he is committed to reducing as many agencies, bureaus and committees as possible and slashing spending left and right.
I could continue by speaking on Cruz’s flat tax, his strategy for job creation in freer markets and his stance on energy, but I believe I have said enough. Cruz is a fighter; he has fought for America in the past and continues to fight every day of his life. If you care about America enough to want to see it be made great again, if you are horrified by the immoral spiral this country has taken and if you love freedom, Ted Cruz is the man to fight on your behalf. I have endorsed Senator Ted Cruz for the 2016 race, I am caucusing for him tonight, and I encourage you to do the same.
