The American Way #2

Rafael Cruz fought for Fidel Castro in the  Cuban Revolution when he was 14 years old, but "didn't know Castro was a Communist.” A few years later he became a staunch critic of Castro when "the rebel leader took control and began seizing private property and suppressing dissent.” He remained regretful for his early support of Castro, and emphatically conveyed this remorse to his young son over the following years. His son is T-Publican Texas Senator Ted Cruz.

Ted Cruz is the kind of son who takes the wisdom of his father seriously and has often times quoted his dad when it comes to implementing laws. However, when it comes to homosexuals and women Ted Cruz  believes that dissent is not practical; especially when it comes to a woman’s right to choose anything about her reproductive rights or when same-sex couples want to marry. Like Fidel Castro, Senator Cruz believes the government has certain unalienable responsibilities to ignore equality and freedom of some of its citizens. But Ted Cruz will swear on a stack of Bibles, that the denial of rights for loose women and homosexuals is not as bad as Communism because Ted Cruz’s dictatorial powers emulate from Christianity and not from something as inane as atheism. Ted Cruz’s father, Rafael is now a Pastor and has told his flock that Jesus has spoken to the elder Cruz informing him that his son is the closest thing to a Messiah. Adhering to his father’s words, Ted has decided that he is in fact beyond reproach and is certain when he denies femme fatals and homosexuals any American rights, he is doing so to maintain this Christian nation for its founding father, Jesus!

Ted Cruz is proud of his father’s plight out of Cuba and his father’s struggle to fight a dictator who had disregard for dissent. For the Cruz’s Castro denied personal and civil rights of the Cuban people. Rafael Cruz left his native country for first Canada and then the US. Both countries imploring its citizens to strive for fair and equal. But like Fidel Castro, (the evil of evils) Ted and his dad Rafael have also decided that democracy is not deserved for those deemed the Devil, like women who just want to have sex and men or women who want to have sex with men or women. Ted Cruz would like to be president of the United States, and he also wants to decide just whose United States this is.
