Cruz for President
"Lee" +
:30 ad announced Mar. 17, 2016, run in UT.
[Music]
Sen. Mike Lee:
I’m here
today to announce my endorsement of Ted Cruz.
I’ve decided to endorse Ted for a number of reasons.
He promised that he would stand up to a growing, overbearing federal
government...
He promised that he would fight against ObamaCare.
He promised he would resist efforts to undermine our Second Amendment
rights as Americans.
He promised that he would oppose any efforts to undermine religious
liberty.
Ted has kept those promises...
With that trust that he’s earned…
We need to unite behind Ted Cruz.
Cruz (voiceover):
I'm
Ted
Cruz
and
I
approved
this
message.
Notes: This
is from Sen. Lee in Coral Gables, FL on March 10. It is
interesting that while the ad is built on Lee audio it doesn't show too
much of him talking; there's a bit at the beginning and the end
(compare for example 1, 2).
As
noted
in
the
March
17
press
release...
Today,
the
Cruz
for President campaign launched two new TV ads in Utah and
Arizona. The ad titled “Lee”
is
a
30-second
spot that will run statewide in Utah featuring Sen. Mike
Lee discussing his endorsement of Ted Cruz. In the ad, Lee says that
Cruz has done everything he promised voters he would do, including
fighting against Obamacare, protecting our First Amendment liberties,
and standing up to a lawless Obama administration.
The ad titled “Grant,”
is
a
30-second
spot that will run statewide in Arizona. The ad features
Steve Ronnebeck, whose son, Grant, was killed by an illegal immigrant
who was released from jail but not deported. In the ad, Ronnebeck says
that he trusts Ted Cruz because he respects the Constitution and that
“it’s time we put somebody in office who puts the American people
first.”
