Presidential campaign - sign of grift over contender: Cruz in Iowa
“The Fortune 500 is running shamelessly to endorse the radical gay marriage agenda over religious liberty to say: ‘We will persecute a Christian pastor, a Catholic priest, a Jewish rabbi. Any person of faith is subject to persecution if they dare disagree, if their religious faith parts way from their political commitment to gay marriage.'”http://www.chron.com/news/politics/tedcruz/article/Ted-Cruz-attacks-the-Fortune-500-s-radical-gay-6177623.php
Last cycle we became very clear that some running (Hucklebee, Gingrich, and Cain) were not serious candidates - but seriously trolling to get big lists of donors that they (at least the first two - don't know about Cain) are still grifting through news letters/blasts hawking questionable merchandise etc.
Can anyone who really is a serious candidate - a republican candidate - really start off by villifying big business? Nah.
But riding the moment (think Pizza parlor - being rescued by "defenders"
he clearly sees an opportunity to position himself for the big grift.
