Top item in a BBC list of “5 Things to know about Ted Cruz”

1. He’s an establishment insider in outsider’s clothing

Ted Cruz may style himself as an anti-establishment, grass-roots firebrand, but it’s a relatively new persona. Mr Cruz has an Ivy League pedigree, having attended Princeton University and Harvard Law School, where he was editor of the Law Review and graduated magna cum laude.

He clerked with the legendary conservative jurist J. Michael Luttig on a US appeals court and for Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist. He worked on George W Bush’s 2000 presidential campaign, held several executive branch jobs in his administration and served as Texas solicitor general, arguing nine cases before the US Supreme Court.

In the two years before he ran for the US Senate, he worked as a partner in the Houston office of the law firm Morgan Lewis, representing deep-pocketed corporate clients and making more than a million dollars a year.

Typical, a fraud just like Obama was. He was another insider with the Harvard pedigree and deep back ground of ties to Wall st. Nobody gets near the WH unless they have these kinds of pedigrees these days. Cruz's arch-Conservative backers will try to market as some kind of Tea party creature , but in reality he's just another creature of the moneyed elites.

So it would seem, it looks like his m.o. is to mobilize the delusional right. Curious route to fame...

Maybe Cruz figures BV$H 2s hardcore is up for grabs and they are the GOP base. Its not as crazy as it looks.

Obama Derangement Syndrome. A helluva drug.

he does a few things here. He makes it known that he is a presidential candidate and no doubt will run again in the future. He tries to get Bush's hardcore base and build from there. I mean if Bush 2 can do it, why can't Cruz. The voting base is definitely capable of anything considering how well the GOP manipulates the message.
