Ted Cruz's Father: Black People ‘Uninformed' And ‘Deceived'

[CatWoman]

as opposed to you and your son being liars and fucking idiots?

Evangelical pastor Rafael Cruz, father of tea party star Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), called black and Hispanic voters “uninformed” and “deceived" during a speech to conservative activists in February.

After attending a panel on minority outreach at the FreedomWorks grassroots summit, Cruz, a Cuban-American, born-again Christian, spoke at the conference. He noted that a previous speaker "mentioned something about Hispanics being uninformed or deceived."

"Well, the same thing is true of the black population,” Cruz said.

Cruz also suggested how blacks and Hispanics should vote. “As a matter of fact, if we could communicate the truth, not only to the Hispanics but to the black population, all blacks should be Republican," he said.

4. A guy helped me once and I didn't have any money to give to him...

...We were on Belle Isle. I was exhausted and he helped me get my kayak on top of my truck. I wanted to give him something of real value, so I told him to learn about Abraham Bolden.



Mr. Cruz has a lot in common with the more unenlightened elements of society.

All the civil rights that the African Americans have obtained have come from Republicans,” Cruz said. “But you know what, Democrats took the credit.”The 74-year-old tea party icon also attributed “all the civil rights” that African-Americans have achieved to Republicans"
