A "President" Cruz would be a danger to the entire world

He's intelligent. But there's a difference between academic intelligence and emotional intelligence.

He doesn't care what any other Republican thinks of him. He'd rather be feared than liked?

He's an absolutist. "My way or the highway."

He has the verbal skills to inflame the ignorant. ...

Some pundits say he sees himself as a redeemer. Translated into English, he has a Christ complex.

Cruz in charge of our nuclear arsenal? That would be a threat to the entire world.

I don't see any of them doing handstands over his announcement.

Jeb Bush would be more dangerous than W., because he is more intelligent.

Cruz combines that level of intelligence with the type of Messiah Complex that W had -- God wants him to be President of the USA at this hour, for His Divine Plan type of stuff.

They don't see that Cruz may well be the Antichrist. At best, he's a wolf in sheep's clothing that the Religious Right doesn't see; they're being deceived as I type.

God complex? Check.
Dictatorial? Check.

Cruz thinks he's Jesus himself, but Christians have been warned centuries ago to be on the lookout for people who try to pass themselves off as some sort of a redeemer.

"Jesus Christ Almighty, where in God's name did this crackpot come from?"

WTF ever since Cheney/Bush were appointed to the White House and then stole their "reelection."
