The 10 Ways Ted Cruz Thinks He Can Make Your Life Better

From The Daily Signal.com (Jan. 13):

Ted Cruz is ready to bring big change to Washington—one bill at a time.

Speaking yesterday at Heritage Action’s 2015 Conservative Policy Summit in Washington, D.C., the Texas senator outlined his 10 policy goals for the new Republican-controlled Congress.

In doing so, Cruz stressed the importance of the GOP fulfilling the promises it made last election cycle.

“These are extraordinary times,” he said.

“Just last week, walking down the hallway at the capitol, I ran into a janitor carrying a screw driver coming to change the sign on Harry Reid’s door.”

The jab against the former Democrat majority leader brought the room to laughter.

With Republicans now in charge, Cruz said it’s time to embrace a “big, bold positive agenda that says to the American people, you had a referendum and you rejected the Obama agenda.”

Here are the 10 points mapped out in that conservative agenda, which Cruz says he aims to achieve through “piece-by-piece legislation.”

  1. Embrace a big pro-jobs growth agenda.
  2. Pursue all means possible to repeal Obamacare.
  3. Secure the border and stop illegal amnesty.
  4. Hold government accountable and rein in judicial activism.
  5. Stop the culture of corruption.
  6. Pass fundamental tax reform, making taxes flatter, simpler, and fairer.
  7. Audit the federal reserve.
  8. Pass a strong balanced budget amendment.
  9. Champion school choice and repeal common core.
  10. Deal seriously with the twin threats of ISIL and a nuclear Iran.

That’s a great agenda for Congress. I hope they are able to pass most of those ideas.

If Ted Cruz runs for president he’s got my vote in the primary. He would make a really good president. Bill Clinton advisor James Carville said on ABC's This Week,  Ted Cruz  “is the most talented and fearless politician I’ve seen in the last 30 years.” If the Left fear him then I definitely want him on the ticket. If the republicans put another moderate on the ticket then whoever is the democrat candidate (more than likely Hillary Clinton—we’ll see) will probably win. That’s my prediction. Even Ted Cruz himself agrees with me.

Here are Ted Cruz’s ratings by the way:

American Conservative Union (2013): 100%

Freedom Works (2014): 97%

National Taxpayers Union (2013): A

Citizens Against Government Waste (2013): 98% (Hero)

Numbers USA (2013-2015): A+  Numbers USA is against amnesty and is for securing the border.

You can’t get much better than that. Well, I think you get the point.
