I will happily support anything that protects life.
Ted Cruz
Image
I'm very proud to have joined with conservatives in both the Senate and the House to reform how we target bad guys.
Ted Cruz
Image
I will fight to defend liberty.
Ted Cruz
Image
I recognize that folks in the press love to see Republican-on-Republican violence, and so you want me to say something bad about Donald Trump, or bad about John McCain or bad about anyone else, i'm not going to do it.
Ted Cruz
Image
I do think if we take the power out of Washington and bring it back to the people, if we defend the Bill of Rights, free speech, religious liberty, the Second Amendment, privacy, if we repeal Obamacare, abolish the IRS, if we get Washington out of the way of job creators, I think we can transform this country.
Ted Cruz
Image
One of the problems in Washington is there are far too many politicians who desperately just want to get re-elected.
Ted Cruz

It took Jimmy Carter to give us Ronald Reagan.

I would note that the scripture tells us, you shall know them by their fruit. We see lots of campaign conservatives. But if we're going to win in 2016, we need a consistent conservative, someone who has been a fiscal conservative, a social conservative, a national security conservative.

President Obama's Justice Department won less than half of its total cases before the Supreme Court, which is the lowest presidential win rate since Harry Truman. Average historically for the last 50 years is about 70 percent.
Ted Cruz
Image
Protecting life is a value that matters. Whether it is stopping partial birth abortion which I think is a barbarism. Or whether it is fairly enforcing the criminal laws against Planned Parenthood.
Ted Cruz
Image
I do think we should be focused on substance and record. If you want a candidate who opposes amnesty, who opposes citizenship for the 12 million people here illegally, I'm the only candidate in the race who opposes that.
Ted Cruz
Image
I feel quite confident there will never be a plane on the face of the Earth with my name on it.
Ted Cruz
Image
I had a back-and-forth where I asked Donald Trump, is it true or false that he said the government should pay for everyone's health care? He said it's false. Listen, within minutes, we put out a video just contrasting what he said there with video of him just a few months earlier saying exactly the opposite.

Most wars are not won in a single battle.
Ted Cruz

Free enterprise system was born the second year the pilgrims were here. And of course, it has made America the most prosperous country in the world.
Ted Cruz
Image
I believe in a America first foreign policy, that far too often President [Barack] Obama and Hillary Clinton - and, unfortunately, more than a few Republicans - have gotten distracted from the central focus of keeping this country safe.
Ted Cruz
Image
By statute, Congress has given the president the authority to suspend immigration - any class of immigration if he deems it in the national interest.
Ted Cruz
Image
It's really remarkable to see two candidates,[Donald] Trump and [Marco] Rubio, making things up and putting things out for which there is no evidence and no basis.
Ted Cruz
Image
Marco Rubio was fighting to grant amnesty and not to secure the border, I was fighting to secure the border. And this also goes to trust, listening on to campaign trails. Candidates all the time make promises. You know, Marco said, he learned that the American people didn't trust the federal government.

We need a president who stands up, number one, and says, we will defeat ISIS. And number two, says the greatest national security threat facing America is a nuclear Iran.
