Campaign 404: TedCruz.com is not ready for 2016

http://mashable.com/2015/03/23/ted-cruz-404-presidential-candidates-website-fail/?utm_cid=hp-hh-pri

Though Texas Sen. Ted Cruz announced his 2016 run on Twitter, it seems the presidential hopeful may have overlooked one key element of his digital strategy: the ever-important domain name.

Rather than providing relevant information on the first major candidate to officially announce a 2016 run, TedCruz.com heralds support for President Obama and the need for immigration reform. Ouch.

TedCruzForAmerica.com meanwhile redirects to Healthcare.gov.

Cruz's official campaign has been relegated to TedCruz.org for the time being.


A bit more, with some history, at link.

That a science denier would have overlooked something like a website? It is 2015 but Cruz and his brain are stuck in the 1300s.
