Drudge Report News: Ted Cruz Running for President in 2016? Foreign Policy Main Focus

Ted Cruz, a Texas Republican senator, could be running for President in the 2016 elections, according to an article featured in The Druge Report. According to the sources, who are reportedly close to Cruz, claim that he will be making the announcement before the end of 2014.

"At this point he's 90/10 he's in. And honestly, 90 is lowbailing it," one of Cruz's advisers who was not named told The Drudge Report. Cruz will attempt to make foreign policy his main focus, which could help make his campaign stand out.

In a previous interview, Cruz has expressed his intention to run for President in 2016 as well as his views on foreign policy.

"I have been very clear that, in my view, the 2016 election is the most important election of our lifetimes. Our nation teeters on the brink of a precipice. And I believe 2016 will be an election like 1980 about two fundamentally different visions for America," Cruz said.

"Is it true that the American people are war-weary? Absolutely," Cruz said, mentioning his position in foreign policy matters.

"We are tired of sending our sons and daughters to distant lands year after year after year, to give their lives trying to transform foreign nations. But I think it's a serious misreading of the American people to conclude that we are unwilling to defend ourselves, that we are unwilling to be strong and vigorous defending U.S. national security," he added.

Apparently, Cruz isn't the only one who is planning to run for the Presidential elections. Kentucky Republican Senator Rand Paul is also reportedly going to run for the nation's highest office.
