From RP Staff:
*Senator Cruz will be joining us for a live Q&A on Friday, 2/26 at 1:00pm EST. Post your questions below in advance of the Q&A. Questions with the most up votes will be answered first. Please be upfront and to the point with your questions. RP Staff will be monitoring this discussion.*
From Senator Ted Cruz:
America now faces a momentous decision. Almost a decade of irresponsible defense cuts has slashed the number of combat personnel, seriously degraded their combat readiness, and shrunk the size of our military below any reasonable standard. If America continues to lead from behind, we will lose the ability to guarantee our safety at home and abroad.
Our all-volunteer force deserves better. They deserve a leader who will provide them with the finest weapons systems and the best training. They deserve the full and unapologetic support of their Commander-in-Chief, not a minimal commitment and overly restrictive Rules of Engagement.
Furthermore, Americans make up the finest military professionals and veterans in the world, and they deserve an investment in their careers, their health, and their families. We must honor of our military members, families, and veterans by ensuring they receive the respect and care they have earned.
Under focused, new leadership, America can, and will, rebuild our military and take care of our veterans.

How do you face yourself in the mirror after Trump disrespected your family and you took a knee and kissed the ring? Is power more important to you than your loved ones? Your Cancun getaway should show constituents where your priorities lie - somewhere below staying in office and preserving the Honor of your family. Pretty far down the trough.

Senator Cruz,
Well, you blew a lot of foul smoke in your above statement. Most of it nothing but propaganda. As I see it, Trump only tried to give us a civil war. Now my question to you is: Should the people who, by word and deed that participated in the insurrection of Jan 6th be tried for TREASON?? I am a soldier, I want a Yes or NO answer without any political BS!!! You either think the people who tried to overthrow our legal government should be tried for treason or that they should be given a pass. I bet you either don't respond to this or you blow smoke and babble without doing what I asked.

I know this is after the Q & A but I'll ask any way:
Have you considered the Lt. Governor of Kentucky for VP? She is an African American Woman and a veteran and a Tea Party candidate. I know you will do your due diligence but I thought I might suggest it. It might garner some free media coverage as the world considers this little known newcomer as your VP.

SAYS CRUZ WANTS TO KILL GAYS! NEED TO STOP LATEST ! " Ted Cruz accountable for willingly attending a discussion calling for mass genocide of gays needs to be addressed fast ! " Fact that MSNBC is calling Cruz "most electable" w/ this video - http://bit.ly/1SY3fVt
Ted Cruz introduced at conference discussing mass execution of gays
The mainstream media made Trump disavow a member of the KKK for an endoresment he couldn't control but won't hold Ted Cruz accountable for willingly attending a discussion calling for mass genocide?

What can we do to help you have a debate with Donald Trump above and beyond what has already been done? I have some ideas, but I would like to know what would work for you.

The Rallypoint admins are working on getting other presidential candidates to participate in a Q&A like this one.
I do hope that the candidate does a better job at answering all the voters' questions and that everyone else refrains from answering the questions posed to the candidate.

I'm deleting my RallyPoint account right after this post. You're turning it into another political forum.
Don't we have enough on other social media and the news!.

Maj (Join to see) Your comment would be more effective if you contacted the admins privately.
That being said, not everyone is on social media sites nor do they watch mainstream media which is biased and full of lies.
Just my opinion, which we all have one.

I would also add that your post is more what I would see on other social media, like Facebook, very unprofessional.

Wish I could have been here. I would love to have asked if he thought the few delegates he gained in Iowa from his poor handling of the Carson situation was worth losing any possibility of Carson supporters voting for him in other state primaries.
