3. Imagine if guys like him received commensurate physical reaction to the disgusting lies

they tell on a daily basis.

This would be most cons, tens of millions...if someone lied to you all day everyday in an attempt to destroy your world, what would SHOULD you do?

Doing nothing is not working.

4. Apparently Cruz has an abysmal approval rating and no one in Congress likes or supports him

(According to Al Franken) He's proved himself to be a liar and a hypocrite, so who is voting for him???

5. A group of volunteer law students rescued a friend of mine from a SIXTY YEAR prison sentence

Yutico was 19 years old when he was convicted for a robbery of $103 that he did not commit! He spent nearly eight years in a Louisiana prison before he was exhonorated and released.

Ted Cruz is the poster child for racist cruelty.
