2) Is the fact that Cruz is firmly anti-gay marriage, anti-abortion, rejects Obamacare, supports gun rights, favours increasing immigration five-fold, opposes legalising marijuana, favours the death penalty, opposes higher minimum wages, denies man-made global warming, and is a practicing Southern Baptist a concern which makes him a far worse candidate than Donald Trump?

Syz, you frame the second statement as if Mr Cruz is in contravention of some vitally important 'truths'. The majority of the world's population does not give a rat's about these things. They have only been molded into 'truths' in a small number of weakening western democracies...
The rise of Donald Trump can be in no small way attributed to the way the above falsehoods have been rammed down the throats of a silent majority...
The proponents of your listed causes are more dangerous to a society than anything Cruz can do...
