'We endorse the idea of voluntarism; self-responsibility: Family, friends, and churches to solve problems, rather than saying that some monolithic government is going to make you take care of yourself and be a better person. It's a preposterous notion: It never worked, it never will. The government can't make you a better person; it can't make you follow good habits.' - Ron Paul 1988

Cruz shouldn't mind the shirts, he said he was proud to stand with Rand too.

No more than you are ignoring the fact that Beck said nice things about his father, too--a couple of times--then Beckstabbed him--a couple of times. Why would we sit and wait for the obvious to happen before we started watching his son's back? As a springboard for 2024?
one thing I have always loved about the liberty movement is how it brings a bunch of people together who probably would never know eachother otherwise and much more than that, it makes us like family almost instantly when we get together.. that was always my experience when traveling during the election cycles to different events and I cant wait to do it again.
The ultimate minority is the individual. Protect the individual from Democracy and you will protect all groups of individualsRightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual. - Thomas JeffersonI must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Glenn Beck is has fundamentally endorsed Ted Cruz. If I was Rand Paul I would still enter the fray and do an interview on Glenn Beck Radio show anyways.
for Ron I was more interested in showing my support than winning votes, even though I had the best intentions.
sometimes showing support in ways like this actually hardens potential voters against you.
Cruise voters are the easiest for us to pick up when it becomes apparent that cruise has the electability problem.
if this were a Bush rally it might actually be good strategy ( being the anti Bush candidate) but I'm not seeing much to gain by doing this with Ted.
the fact it was a mandatory gathering makes a difference but that fact will lost on most.
We should track all the other candidate's speeches and campaign stops, and coordinate with Rand Paul supporters in that local area. They all enter the event with "Ted Cruz" or "Hillary Clinton" sweatshirts. Then mid way through the speech, all of them take off the sweatshirts en masse to reveal "RAND PAUL" t-shirts underneath.
I know the guy who organized this.

And you could if you became a Canadian citizenship no matter where you were born, because other countries don't have such an incredibly stupid, anachronistic, and xenophobic law preventing it.
You are clearly a proud Murican though as evidenced by your utter lack of knowledge of how any other countries political system works. You don't run for prime minister. You are appointed PM if you are the leader of a party that wins a majority of seats in Parliament.
But who gives a $#@!? Murica!!!

Love it... Just one thing: at what point do they stop being kids and start being adults? Not trying to be "that guy" but just thought I'd leave this thought here. Saying these are just a buncha kids discredits them to an extent, in the average person's mind at least.
Yall realize Cruz is an ashkenazi right? Just sayin. His whole Cuban/Canadian thing is a smokescreen.

The intention of the law is to make sure that whoever holds the highest office in the land is loyal to America. That they grew up here, all of their childhood experiences are here, they hold great loyalty to the land and the people.
Imagine someone grows up in France, and then moves here at age 30 and becomes president. That person simply would not be loyal to America in the same way that someone who grew up reading about the founding fathers and saluting the flag would be. It isn't xenophobic, it's common sense.

If his loyalty was in question, the electorate should be smart enough not to elect him. If they aren't, they get the government they deserve.
What if his parents were Russian spies and he was a citizen who was raised to be subversive? It's just as ridiculous and it's a completely xenophobic law. The first many Presidents weren't born in America. Martin Van Buren was more Dutch then American. It's nonsense and is not required in a free society.
I've found in my thirty year here that immigrants have much greater respect and loyalty for this country then most of the native born. They certainly know way more about our history and laws.

How could you trust a French born president to negotiate a trade deal with France? And the electorate isn't smart enough not to elect someone like that, establishment interests can be too strong. It's the same reason why we need Term Limits.
The whole point of a Constitutional Republic is that we recognize that there are certain issues and situations in which majority rule simply isn't the best policy. Hence the Bill of Rights.
How could you trust the child of those French immigrants to negotiate a trade deal with France. What if the immigrated here and became citizens, gave birth to a son here, moved back to France to raise him until she 30 and then he moved back?
He would be eligible. But a child born to American parents living abroad I'm France who returned here with their child at age 2 and raised him here would not have an eligible child.
Sorry it's dumb, anachronistic, and xenophobic. Worse yet it's an arbitrary point to fixate on. I don't trust people who have never left the US to negotiate a trade deal with France.
It's incredibly collectivist and against what this movement stands for. We judge individuals based on their character.
I don't care where someone was born anymore than I care about their skin color. It's something you have no control over.
