Has that much f--king changed when anyone's in office, whether it's been a Republican or a Democrat in office, in our lifetime, anyway? I haven't really seen this big, like, f--king change.

Quite frankly, I've never had a politician talk like that... His dad was a bartender at a bowling alley and his mom was a maid at a casino here in town. When someone mentions living paycheck to paycheck, he goes, 'Yeah, I was raised that way.' I think if you have a leader, you need someone who has experienced what people are experiencing."

He’s not only unafraid, he’s anxious to engage these people in a dialogue that puts truth and common sense into the conversation. And then, there’s old fashion 'leadership.' As the campaign heats up, it's clear to me that Ted Cruz has what it takes to give our great nation the leadership she deserves."
