What Cruz doesn't mention is the next step in his father's American Dream: raising a son who would attend the very best schools in America and look down upon everyone else with a nauseating, unthinkable smugness. GQ reports:

Cruz and a few others realized that they can use their office not to be legislators but to be talk show stars which they then parlay into power. That is the future of America and it is not a good one.

I don't see it. Cruz is aiming higher than some guest slots on Fox News shows. He would have more power than that by returning to his legal practice (argued 9 cases before the Court).

What I meant is they strive to be talked about by talk shows - make them their built in cheerleading section.

It's FREE PUBLICITY and counteracts the huge war chests of a Hillary and Jeb.

Reince Pribus will steer all the RNC money to the GOPe candidates.
