The Next President

   Who can you trust? Who should you vote for? Someone you should consider was actually born in Canada, but lives in Texas now.  Senator Ted Cruz has a pretty neat family, a great education, and has had a tremendously awesome political life...so far.


      Ted Cruz has an interesting family in some ways. His father, who dangerously escaped from Cuba because of communism, took a job in Texas. His mother was born in Delaware and met Cruz's father in New Orleans. On December 22nd, 1970, Ted Cruz was born in Canada. They eventually moved back to Texas, where he now lives. In 2001 he married a woman named Heidi and they have two daughters named Caroline and Catherine. Loving and supporting Ted is his wonderful family.


    Ted Cruz had an awesome education, which hopefully means he's smart, right? Amazingly he memorized the lengthy Constitution when he was 13. Isn't that marvelous? He graduated from Princeton in 1992 and Harvard Law School in 1995.  Campaigning with George W. Bush, he was a Policy Advisor in 2000. From 2003-2008 he was the Solicitor General of Texas arguing cases before the Supreme Court of the United States. Cruz you got to admit is pretty smart.


      With all of his intelligence and experience Ted Cruz was finally ready to run for office. Cruz is the 1st Hispanic Senator of Texas. Filibustering confidently, he talked for 21 hours and 19 minutes on the senate floor, because he promised to fight with every breathe in his body for 40,000,000 Texans who he represented. In 2013 he knew he wanted to run for President of the United States. In 2013 he also started speaking in early primary states such as Iowa. On March 23, 2015 he announced his campaign. He was the 1st candidate to announce his presidential campaign. So far he has won, Iowa, Texas, Alaska, Oklahoma, Kansas, Maine, Wyoming, Idaho, Utah, and Wisconsin. Ted Cruz is extremely qualified to lead our country.


    Cruz is loyal, trustworthy, and humble. He is a family man, his education is outstanding, and politics is his zone. Family is the most important reason to vote for him.  Even though he is busy, he still cares about his family. Cruz should be the next president of the United States.
