In an April 6 letter to the editor (“Ted Cruz has capability to reclaim nation’s future”), James Pickett writes of his pleasure that Ted Cruz has decided to enter the presidential race.

Mr. Pickett believes that “Mr. Cruz can get this country back on course by redefining our liberty, ensuring the equality of natural rights … .”

Mr. Pickett goes on to praise Ted Cruz’s strategy for making the United States once again “the strongest and freest country in history.”

What Mr. Pickett neglects to point out is that when Ted Cruz announced his candidacy for president at Liberty University, it was a requirement that all Liberty students attend this event. I would ask Mr. Pickett to clarify: Is this the freedom you and Mr. Cruz speak of? Let freedom ring!
