ENDORSES CRUZ AS CONSTITUTIONALLY QUALIFIED – R.I.P. TX GOV. RICK PERRY

(Sep. 14, 2015) — In my third political race as a presidential candidate I’ve experienced some things that those making 2016 their first presidential political race have not. For instance I’ve experienced making it past the first one to drop out three times now R.I.P Gov. Rick Perry. TX-R. I’ve also experienced in the two presidential elections that I made it to the general election on, casting a write-in vote for myself on, watching a few Candidates make big mistakes that didn’t end their races, and watching a few candidates make minor mistakes that people credited their dropping out of the race on. That is what I’d like to address in this post.
Last night I had a dream kind of exposing this theme and made a comment last night on Facebook that also may have contributed to this line of thought. In my dream I was showing up for a college test in a class that was rather like a social studies test. I had missed only one hour of the class during the year forgetting for some reason where it was held. In other words, I hadn’t missed it because I wanted to sluff it or thought it unimportant. So it was it seemed I was showing up for the Finals Test slightly not as prepared as I’d like, and a little nervous.
I asked one of my classmates who was quite a brain in the class about the pronunciation in identifying the body parts ending in the suffix aux and whether the “O” was pronounced or the “X” was sounded out. She looked at me and grinned and said it didn’t really matter and advised me to just take the test and do the best I could because the teacher was going to be very lenient in grading such and that it wouldn’t count as much as I thought which relieved my nervousness somewhat. This was the end of the dream.
Many of the articles I read about TX. Gov. Rick Perry dropping out related in their reports that he just was never able to overcome his fumble in the debate of 2012 in which he failed to recall at the instant which of the three Government Cabinet positions or Agencies of Government he was proposing to cut. If you missed that here’s the clip from the 2012 debate:

Now you notice in the video Gov. Perry turns to his fellow Texan 2013 Rep. Ron Paul- 14th District acknowledging him for his plan to cut 5 burgeoning bureaucratic agencies down. Ron Paul had detailed an economic savings package for the Government by terminating over 200,000 jobs in the Departments of Commerce, Education, Energy, Interior, and Housing & Urban Development he felt were counter productive. Rep. Paul offered not one life-saving word to assist his own Texas Governor instead opting to watched him sink and drowned on the stage of the debate even though Governor Perry has acknowledged that there was some good ideas in Paul’s plan. But I don’t think that had much to do with Perry’s Popularity.
The question then became who did the American People think had failed more in the debate? Would Gov. Perry’s gaffe -[(/gaf/) an unintentional act or remark causing embarrassment to its originator; a blunder] or Rep Paul’s faux pas [(fō ˈpä/) an embarrassing or tactless act or remark in a social situation] end up worse?
I really do not think there has been one story written about Rep. Paul’s unwillingness to throw a ‘one word’ life saving rope to Gov. Perry’s rescue. We are left with the word “Energy” effectively contributing according to the Media to the entire downfall of Perry’s Presidential Campaign in 2012 and still effectively recognized in now an exiting 2016 bid for the Office of the President. I’ll tell you one thing, I wouldn’t hesitate when it comes to experience in Texas and our nations borders asking Governor Rick Perry for advice. I really feel in my heart he loves America.
Consider for a moment what we are regulating the Office of the President to if we are simply subjecting our debating Presidential Candidates to a spelling bee – memorization test- or academic social studies class they can have no notes for on stage? I noticed FL. Gov. Jeb Bush didn’t hesitate to push this as an advantage when reported in a September 3rd story he said, “You gotta know the who the players are,” referring to an interview Trump did with Hugh Hewitt where Trump accused him of asking ‘Gotcha Questions‘. Hugh Hewitt had quizzed Trump on knowing the leaders of the four terrorist organizations Hamas, Hezbollah, al-Nusra and ISIS as well as not knowing the General of the Iranian elite Quds forces, he took for Kurds.
Presidential Candidate Fiorina jabbed Trump also on the lapse stating it was important to have ‘requisite knowledge’. She stated on Hugh Hewitt’s Radio Show, “I think it is very difficult to lead if you don’t have the requisite knowledge,” Sunday morning of Trump’s mix-up of the Kurds and Quds Forces.
