This
is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.
With
his defeat yesterday in Indiana, Sen. Ted Cruz brought to an end a remarkable
presidential bid. As one of his admirers, I am very sorry to see this
principled, courageous man leave the race.
As an American who believes the country desperately needs a
course-correction, especially with respect to the national security, I pray
that his vision in that regard will nonetheless prevail.
I
had the privilege of being asked to serve as one of the senior national
security advisors for the Texas senator’s 2016 campaign. It gave me an opportunity to witness first-hand
his inspiring clarity about the threats we are facing, his unwavering commitment
to our friends and allies around the world and his determination to restore the
common defense.
Our
times’ existential threats to freedom require such qualities in our next
Commander-in-Chief. We must accept
nothing less.
This
is Frank Gaffney.
