Are you not aware that Barack Obama was raised by a communist mother and father and was mentored by famed communist, Frank Marshall Davis?
So, while you are throwing stones at Ted Cruz, claiming (falsely) that his father was a communist, you support Barack Obama, a "Progressive," raised and mentored by communists, and as a "Progressive" is a Marxist/socialist! That's what "Progressives" are.
You are really out of touch with reality.
LOL. Yes, nonsense, I am very aware that you believe all that nonsense about Obama and his parentage and upbringing, which is why I made that comment in the first place.
Obama met his father exactly twice in his life, and his father never fought side by side with an avowed Marxist. It was Cruz's father who did that. But you want us to tar the president for his tenuous relationship with his absent father as proof that he is a communist while giving Cruz a pass for being raised to adulthood by a communist. If that's not being "mentored by a communist" I don't know what is.
But of course, to you, that's "different." And I expected nothing less.
Yeah. Also Reagan was a governor, not a congressman like Cruz. Most people want a candidate with executive experience than a legislator in 2016. Cruz is barely a legislator.
You putting JFK and Barrack Obama down?
I believe the only qualifications are, you be a citizen and have lived in the borders of the USA for, what is it? 14 YEARS.
What the... You may want to step away from the computer, turn off the talk radio, and pick up a book that isn't written by Jonah Goldberg. Maybe start with Das Kapital and then re-evaluate the statement above.
You need to pick up a book written in the 1940's called, The Road to Serfdom.
You have anything with substance, details, facts, or supporting information?
Your colleagues crapping themselves to get the best insult, says it best.
A character assassination, using lies and insults. That is what the losing attorney turns to in the 12th hour.
President Barack Obama on Friday signed a bill into law intended to prevent an Iranian diplomat who allegedly played a role in the 1979 hostage crisis from entering the United States. However, during the signing of the bill, authored by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), the president indicated he would treat the law only as “advisory.”

No you are the one out of touch. As posted before on a closed thread, Progressives CAN include Marxists, Socialists, even Communists but it isn't limited to them. It is wrong to say they are because they are not all like that. It's the same as those that claim libertarians are anarchists. A number are (the amount of anarchism and what you are anarchist for is the difference) but there are a number that aren't like how there are non Marxist progressives.
IMO, conservatives use socialism and socialist very liberally, almost too liberally.
Sorry, but you are uninformed.
"Progressive" thought began in Europe, and was imported into the U.S. through the university system. It is an ideology, a political philosophy that has it's roots in Marxist/socialist thought. It sees government as the vehicle to solve all societal problems. "Progressives" believe that government "experts" are better able to decide the needs of society than free market economics, and they believe in redistribution to "equalize" the disparity between rich and poor (the "income gap"), etc.
Woodrow Wilson is considered by some to be the "Father of the Progressive Movement" in America.
I also recommend you read, "The Road to Serfdom" by F.A. Hayek. He specifically refers to "Progressivism" as Marxist/socialist, and points out that there is very little difference between Marxism, socialism, and communism, as they are all collectivist systems.
