Demagogues vs. Ideologues

Hillary Clinton is a demagogue: a political leader who seeks support by appealing to popular desires and prejudices rather than by using rational argument. She uses Progressive ideas and policies to further her own ambitions. She flip-flops with more vigor than a fish out of water. What does she believe? It depends on the audience she's addressing. Her supporters love her because she cares.

Hillary's List of Flip-Flops

Bernie Sanders is an idealogue: one who is intensely or excessively devoted to a cause. He believes Democratic Socialism is better than Republican Capitalism (the political-economic system defined by our Consitution). His followers are dedicated to him because, in their ignorance, they mistakenly believe that a free market gutted by decades of Progressive policies is an inherently inferior system. 

Donald Trump is a demagogue. His political platform consists of Me, Myself and I. The egotistical bluster and populist generalities serve as a backdrop to his repertoir of put-downs and angry rhetoric, creating the perfect climate for violent protests. 

Ted Cruz is an idealogue. He memorized the Constitution in 8th grade. His education and career has been dedicated to his commitment to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States". His life is intensely devoted to restoring our Republic.

Is a demogogue worth your support? Are the whims of a populist worth your vote? Are the ambitions of a celebrity worth the next four or eight years of our future?

I'm a Patriot. A demogogue is not worthy of my consideration, my efforts, my donations, or my ballot.
I choose an ideologue who shares my principles and my prayers for my nation. I choose Cruz.
