Rafael Cruz Brings Energy to Tea Party Meeting

Pastor Rafael Cruz, father of presidential candidate and Texas Senator Ted Cruz, brought his particular brand of bible driven politics to the PBCTP on Saturday at the library branch in Palm Beach Gardens.

Pastor Cruz was introduced by Kiwi pundit Trever Loudon, who yearned for another Reagan to emerge and save us (“Now have Carter on steroids and need a Reagan on Meth”), and doesn’t think much of some of the choices, such as “illegal immigration is an act of love, common core loving” Jeb Bush. While stopping short of an outright endorsement of Ted Cruz, Loudon made it clear he is a fan, and suggested that Senator Cruz should pre-announce his cabinet selections. (See sidebar).


Trevor Loudon’s Dream Cabinet

  • Vice President: Carly Fiorina
  • Secretary of State: John Bolton
  • Secretary of Treasury: Rand Paul
  • Secretary of Energy: Sarah Palin
  • Secretary of Labor: Scott Walker
  • Secretary of Commerce: Michele Bachmann
  • Secretary of HHS: Ben Carson
  • Secretary of Defense: Alan West
  • Secretary of Interior: Mike Lee
  • Attorney General: Trey Gowdy
  • UN Ambassador: NOBODY

With an overall theme of the urgency of action leading up to the 2016 election, Pastor Cruz’s remarks were less a campaign speech for Ted Cruz as much as a call to action to save the country from the destroying influences that under the banner of social justice, encourage dependence on government rather than self reliance.

Using Common Core as an example, brainwashing created by the secular humanists with a political agenda, he tied it to the 1934 “Humanist Manifesto” which features situational ethics, values qualification, and the rights of the group over the individual – all concepts in opposition to the values of the founders.

“America is worth saving” he declared. If the most exceptional country on the face of the earth were to succumb, where would people go if freedom is lost?

He recalled the days of the “black robe regiments” when the American Revolution was driven and nurtured from the pulpit all across colonial America. If the evangelical voters stay home next year, as they did in 2012, we will lose. We are on the edge of a precipice in 2016, with a corrupt political establishment and a lack of values in many institutions. Pastors need to stop hiding behind their pulpits and the liberal’s view of separation of church and state, and find the courage to stand up for America.

Although it’s been said before, Pastor Cruz clearly left the audience with the impression that the next election is truly “the most important of your lifetime.”

Floridians For E-Verify Now

Floridians for E-Verify Now is gathering signed petitions to make E-verify mandatory for all businesses in Florida.  All state employees are required to be E-verified to work for the State of  Florida. Florida businesses are not yet required to verify that  job applicants are U.S. citizens. Many illegal aliens are coming to Florida to get jobs because of this . Many of Florida’s neighboring states require employers to E-verify their job applicants. The petition is available as well as a complete explanation of just about everything you want to know about E-verify at the following link.

http://www.floridiansforeverifynow.org/

I hope you review the information and sign the petition so that it will be placed on the ballot this fall. About 680,000 signed petitions needed  Your signed petition would be very helpful in making sure that Florida is no longer a job magnet for illegal aliens.

How Modern Liberals “Think”

Carly Fiorina’s Debut in Palm Beach County

In a quickly expanding field of GOP Presidential hopefuls, several candidates stand out for what they are not.

Most have been in the political arena for much of their careers and currently are sitting (or former) Governors or Senators, and few of these have made much of a mark in the private sector.

Only two – Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina, are known for their accomplishments outside of politics and have not held public office. Carson, a leading neurosurgeon, was inserted into the national psyche when he took on Obama at a national prayer breakfast. Fiorina, well known for being the first woman to lead a Fortune-50 tech company, made an unsuccessful attempt at a Senate seat from California. One of these, Carly Fiorina, visited Palm Beach County on Wednesday and spoke to a good size crowd of party regulars.

Considered a long shot, barely registering in the polls, Ms. Fiorina should not be overlooked. Since her debut on the national stage, she has rained fire on the presumptive Democrat nominee Hillary Clinton, deftly turned the tables on snarky media types like Chuck Todd and Katie Couric, and staked out her own territory in the emerging campaign narratives.

For whatever reason, Clinton is getting a pass from most of the other candidates, in spite of hiding from the press and having new scandals emerge on a regular basis. Carly Fiorina on the other hand, is not shy about pointing out Clinton’s most outrageous failings, from the Benghazi coverup, to the server in her basement, to the “pay to play” aspects of Clinton Foundation slush fund collecting millions from foreign governments as she handed out favors as Secretary of State. Mrs. Clinton will not be able to hide behind the “war on women” shield with this candidate.

Speaking forcefully on the characteristics of leadership and what she can bring to the table, Ms. Fiorina’s themes are compelling.

There is an uneasy feeling in the country she says, that we are losing something precious. The country that has offered the most opportunities to all people, regardless of who you are or where you came from, has lost its way. Oppressive regulations like Dodd-Frank have consolidated the too-big-to-fail banks, while driving smaller regional and community banks out of business. Crony capitalism is alive and well, and only the larger companies have the financial and legal resources to effectively deal with big government. Our foreign policy is in disarray as we curry favors with adversaries like Iran while turning back on our traditional allies like Israel and Egypt.

Carly Fiorina lays out a reasoned case that our government needs change, making the arguments without resorting to red meat and applause lines. Whether her campaign will catch fire is anybody’s guess, but she brings a new perspective and should liven things up as we go forward into the debate season.

Rand Paul Event Cancelled

Dear Members,

Senator Rand Paul was scheduled to speak in Palm Beach this week but chose to reschedule so that he can fight the renewal of the Patriot Act up in DC. How often do you see a politician place liberty over campaigning?

Our event on this Thursday, May 21st is cancelled. However, we will be rescheduling it sometime in the near future.

We want to thank all of you who have responded with an RSVP and ask your patience and understanding. When something goes wrong there is always something good that comes from it. The something good? We know that we would have filled the FAU auditorium with Patriots. Hold tight because we WILL have another opportunity.
