Dear Editor,
By now voters across Alabama are tuning in to receive coverage on the 2016 presidential election. Citizens are taking a close look at who best represents their conservative values and beliefs. Who will stand up for them? Who will stand on principle and lead our nation with courage? The answer: Senator Ted Cruz. What we are seeing across the entire county is nothing short of amazing. Courageous conservatives are rising up and declaring that they have had enough of business as usual in Washington.
Senator Cruz has committed his entire adult life to fighting for the constitution and our God-given liberties. He has argued and won landmark cases before the Supreme Court. He fought to keep the words “under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance. He has been honored by the National Rifle Association for protecting our right to keep and bear arms. Ted also successfully fought to save the Mojave Veterans Memorial Cross from being taken down; a huge victory for religious liberty.
As a Tea Party senator from the great State of Texas he has valiantly stood for our conservative principles. He has time and time again shown that he will never compromise on principle. Washington absolutely despises this man. Why is that? It is simply because he always tells the truth and actually does what he says he’s going to do. He’s lead the fight to repeal Obamacare, to defund Planned Parenthood and stand for life, to stop President Obama’s illegal executive amnesty, and to abolish the IRS. He’s been the only voice speaking up for traditional marriage. His truth-telling ways have caused him to receive vilification by career politicians in BOTH parties in Washington.
What will a Cruz Administration look like? Ted has promised that on day one he will rip to shreds President Obama’s Iranian nuclear deal, he will move America’s embassy in Israel to Jerusalem (Israel’s forever and eternal capital), Ted will open an investigation into Planned Parenthood and prosecute for any and all criminal violations, and he will instruct all federal departments and agencies that the persecution of religious liberty ends today. You can count on the liberal media and democrats losing their mind over this because Ted means what he believes and does what he says.
We live in uncertain times - ISIS terrorists are waging jihad against America, religious liberty is under assault., the Constitution and Bill of Rights are being ripped to shreds by an out of control federal government, and we are approaching nineteen trillion dollars in debt. In times like these the United States needs a courageous leader. We need someone we can count on and trust. We need Ted Cruz.

In Liberty,
Dylan Smith
Jackson County Chairman
Ted Cruz for President
