We need to do whatever is necessary to utterly defeat ISIS....We're not using our overwhelming air power. We're not arming the Kurds. Those need to be the first steps. And then we need to put whatever ground power is needed to carry it out.

More quotes by Ted Cruz
Millions of Americans are standing up and saying, 'We want our country back!' Republicans, Democrats, Independents, will not go down the path of Greece, we will not go quietly into the night.
Ted Cruz
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.
Ted Cruz
If I'm elected president, we will secure the border. We will triple the border patrol. We will build a wall that works and I'll get Donald Trump to pay for it.

The only way to win the war is to move people's hearts and minds.
Ted Cruz
When you had a terrorist, you could only search a relatively narrow slice of numbers, primarily land lines.

There is no moral absolute, and this leads us to situational ethics, which unfortunately is being taught in public schools all over America. This means that right and wrong is dependent upon the circumstances.
Ted Cruz
Using overwhelming air power to utterly and completely destroy ISIS. To put things in perspective, in the first Persian Gulf War, we launched roughly 1,100 air attacks a day. We carpet bombed them for 36 days, saturation bombing, after which our troops went in and in a day and a half mopped up what was left of the Iraqi army.

Social justice is collectivism. Social justice is the rights of a group. It denies individual responsibility. It's a negation of individual responsibility, so social justice is totally contrary to the Word of God.
Ted Cruz
Under President (George W.) Bush, prosecution of gun crimes was 30 percent higher than it is under President Obama.
Ted Cruz
I'm not going to play pundit on Donald Trump and criticize him. I will say the media's treatment of that illustrates a very, very different - I mean, it dominated the news for a week to 10 days once he was the nominee. In the primary, it didn't get, seemingly, even 30 seconds of news.
Ted Cruz
The one thing that might have stopped San Bernardino, that might have stopped 9/11 would have been stricter controls on those who came here.
Ted Cruz
Well, guess what, I’m Cuban! And no self-respecting Cuban man of the era would let his wife work.
Ted Cruz
In the history of humanity, there's never been a country like America.
Ted Cruz
What I'm encouraging President Trump and the Cabinet and congressional leaders to do, is let's keep our promises. Let's do what we said we would do, and that's what each and every one of you can hold all of us accountable for.
Ted Cruz
We should be breaking down barriers, not building walls.
Ted Cruz
Social justice is group psychology, it's group rights, it's collectivisim, and it's a negation of individual responsibility, which is what the Bible teaches. Individual responsibility. And of course, social justice leads very quickly to socialism, and ultimately to communism.
Ted Cruz
Twenty years from now if there is some obscure trivial pursuits question, I am confident I will be the answer.
Ted Cruz
Far too many young people are living in their parents' basements, and I think it is important for people to have hope and a vision things can be different.
Ted Cruz
You don't hear me lambasting, engaging in personal attacks, getting nasty. I don't think that belongs in politics.
Ted Cruz
We need leaders who will stand unapologetically in defense of marriage and life.
