Trump Holds Strong Lead in all three Early Primary States, Cruz Passes Carson in Iowa. Stop Trump PAC Forming.
“I think it will come down to Trump and Cruz, to tell you the truth,” said former Alaska Governor and Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin in an interview with WBT-FM in Charlotte, North Carolina last Thursday.
“People are really tired of professional politicians who won’t call it like they see it and maybe don’t have life experiences that allow them to prove a track record of success.
“That’s refreshing about Trump. He’s a fighter. We know he’s going to put America first. And he really nailed it early on what the main problems are in America right now.”

Cruz’s “Rally for Religious Liberty” at BJU
- Details
- By Arthur Hampton
Republican Presidential candidate Ted Cruz went to Bob Jones University, Saturday afternoon, holding the “Rally for Religious Liberty.” Hundreds filled the campus beginning with a moment of silence for the Paris attacks. Cruz exclaimed that Obama is not doing enough to fight ISIS, and if Americans do not act, “we will be mourning another attack like this.”
Cruz began his speech by quoting Martin Luther King, Jr. and reminded the audience that he was indeed a pastor. Cruz then attempts to appeal to conservatives, quoting Reagan’s first speech at Notre Dame after he was shot, stating, “‘Communism is a bizarre chapter in human history, whose last pages even now are being written.’ Let me say that the same is true of radical Islamic terrorism.” In addition, Cruz notes interestingly that Notre Dame had a “tremendous Christian Heritage.”

Delegation Members Urged Media to Make Pubic Aware of Health System Board Attempt to Give Away Billions of Dollars in County Taxpayer Assets
The massive Greenville Health System is property of the taxpayers of Greenville County. The original Greenville General Hospital was owned by the City of Greenville. As the old facility became inadequate to meet the needs of the County, Greenville County taxpayers provided $82 million dollars to help finance Greenville Memorial and satellite hospitals in Greer, Simpsonville and Travelers Rest.
In recent decades, the hospital system has generated sufficient cash to mount major construction projects and purchase numerous medical practices. The original $82 million investment is currently worth billions.
