Read an article in the Charlotte Observer today about Ted Cruz's evangelicals "strategy."

[Miles Archer]

This was the print edition of the paper, which I read while waiting for my car to be fixed, so no link.

The article essentially said:

1). Cruz believes while, middle-to-upper class evangelicals are all he needs to get elected. Not just nominated, elected.

2). Cruz believes that since we are not electing a President of color like we did in the last two terms, like we did with Obama, voters of color are going to stay home.

I shit you not.

Sorry I don't have a link to the online article...it's a real eye-opener. He literally intends to make no effort whatsoever to court Hispanic, African-American, or any other voters other than white evangelicals.

1. Can you imagine a place run by Cruz and his cohorts. I think an armed rebellion would eventually

break out to restore a democracy. We would look just like other countries with theocracies and the horrific insanity.

3. Michigan is that place now, and little is being done. Until it happens to people personally

they dont seem to care.

5. I'm astounded by the ignorance of voters and clearly the lack of any critical

thinking. I should have gotten over it by now, but I'm still astounded. Not caring seems endemic to humans for the most part. We elect politicians that should care, some really do, but often many don't give a F either, and many see it as an opportunity for $$$$$'s and power grabs.

11. Michigan has a theocracy?

I learn something new from you every day Randy.

2. Cruz sees a divide on the Democratic side that could be a disaster for the human race.

One group says hell no I wont vote if my candidate isnt in and at the same time constantly attack the other candidate to the point of harming said candidate's chance of winning if nominated.

So he is hoping to see more of this.

6. Cruz, is a very very smart individual, and with the democrats, he sees an opportunity for divide and

conquer. Anyone that stays home and pisses their pants, and feels warm and cozy by not voting for the nominee because it's not theirs is a damn fool.

7. That has been a puke strategy for a long time

Divide, conquer, destroy, repeat. Season with a little voter suppression and manipulation and you have a really poisonous stew.

10. Thank you...

...I encourage everyone to read it. The arrogant "confidence" in this ploy reminds me of Karl Rove claiming he had "THE math."

9. Cruz never said the specific words shown in this picture

although I think you could argue that other things he has said amount to the same thing.
