You are forced to attend his bullshit...I guess that is the only way he can get an audience...
LYNCHBURG, Va.—Sen. Ted Cruz took the stage to declare his presidential candidacy at Liberty University Monday, surrounded by upwards of 10,000 cheering students. They weren't all here by choice.
Attendance at convocation at Liberty is mandatory, and a group of students clad in "Stand With Rand" shirts sat center stage—directly in view of the cameras—to log their displeasure with having to be here.
“Of course, you want it to appear as if you have a large audience,” said Eli McGowan, who organized the not-so-subtle protest. “We felt like if we didn’t wear shirts showing our true political preference then the media might think we all supported Cruz.”
“They make you come. If you don’t come, you get punished,” said Ana Delgado, a sophomore, who said students face a $10 fine for not showing up at convocation. Delgado wasn’t among those wearing Paul gear. She is undecided about who she’ll support in 2016, but she didn’t like being forced to be part of Cruz’s announcement.

Yes it was a mandatory attendance event but if you watched it there was a tremendous ovation when the said he was going to run for President. It was obvious that the overwhelming majority of people there approved of what he said.

Any "university" that forces its students to attend a political rally is a cult.
But we already knew that about Falwell College.

Including the students who don't know a thing about him.

Much ado about nothing. The birthers will be exposing any day now how this Texas style white supremacist is actually nothing more than a meskin from Canada.

I'm sold, but do you think the birthers will buy that? They're here to protect us from these people regardless of what some jack-booted government thugs say? Donald Trump is already on it.

It doesn't matter what they say because they are incorrect about the law.
They might as well go after him by saying he paid his parking tickets on time, claiming that paying your tickets on time is illegal.

If the Democrats said it, that half would believe it, if the Republicans said it, that half would believe it.
It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world,
Except for Lola.

Who gives a crap what Trump says anyway?
Cruz won't be the nominee, but it gives the lefties a little batting practice until more announce.

This. Cruz is not a serious man, in the sense of
gravitas. He has no shot. Ted is so innately goofy that he can't help himself, Ivy League pedigree or not. I've said it before, but that "Green Eggs and Ham" filibuster alone is enough to do him in.

You're an loon as usual. I have no idea what the fuck kind of college you wasted your day at, but I was never "forced" to attend anything. Even more so something totally unrelated to the college.

Liberty is a college in the same way Scientology is a Religion...
