To the editor:
People say we have to pick the best person to beat Hillary Clinton. To me, win or lose, we have to have the best person who will do the best job of trying to save America. This is why we need a Constitutionalist as president so we have a Constitutionalist on the federal courts if we want to try to save America.
Clinton will be like President Barack Obama and take us at a rabbit's pace at destroying America. The establishment Republican will take us at a turtle's pace at destroying America.
Marco Rubio has a D rating on immigration with NumbersUSA. Ted Cruz has an A-. Cruz is the only candidate who has voted for the people before the party. Constitutionalist Cruz is the person who will stand for individual freedom, God, the Constitution and is not afraid to fight for it even if it is against his party. Cruz is a true outsider. He has stood against his party since in office and called his leader a liar on the Senate floor. Cruz has kept his word on what he will try to do. Cruz wants a simple tax, get rid of the IRS and the Department of Education.
Donors that back establishment candidates said they will vote for Clinton before Cruz. Washington is afraid Cruz will take their power and give it back to 'We The People.”
