Glenn Beck Endorses Ted Cruz for President
HOUSTON,
Texas
–
Today, the Cruz for President campaign announced the endorsement of
Glenn Beck. Nationally syndicated TV and radio host, Beck is a
conservative political commentator, author, television network
producer, filmmaker, entrepreneur and one of America’s leading
conservative voices. His radio show, The Glenn Beck Program
is heard by millions across the country on over 400 radio stations.
“Glenn is a good friend and a fearless
and reliable conservative,” said Cruz. “Glenn has been a relentless
fighter for liberty, for limited government, and for restoring the
country we all love so much. His powerful voice and passion played a
critical role in my Senate victory and I am now proud to have him in
our corner in 2016.”
Beck inspires millions of conservatives
by consistently and fiercely defending the Constitution, advocating for
limited government, opposing Obama’s lawless actions, and defending
life and marriage and our second amendment right to keep and bear arms.
He was a leading figure in the rise of the Tea Party movement to take
the power away from Washington and restore it to the American
people.
“We
need a new George Washington,” said Beck. “Today’s Washington will not
be found in the garish light of gold, but rather, in the bold service
of a man who stands tirelessly for what he deeply believes — that
government should be of the people, by the people, and for the people.
That is why I am endorsing Senator Ted Cruz as the next President of
the United States of America.”
Beck grew up in Mount Vernon, Washington
and started his career in radio at the early age of 13. He started
hosting his own talk radio show on WFLA-AM in Tampa, Florida. Soon
after, he was offered the opportunity to go national with The
Glenn Beck Program
that first debuted on 47 stations and is now nationally syndicated on
over 400. He was given the 2008 Marconi Award for Network/Syndicated
Personality of the Year from the National Association of Broadcasters
and is the author of seven #1 New York Times Bestsellers.
