@DavidMDrucker Presidential structural power is certainly a consideration. But it depends on the extent one is influenced by outside forces. -
@MinneMike Maybe we've been talking around each other. Are you saying "estab" is a state of mind? I can live w/ that - to a point. -
@DavidMDrucker Yes, establishment meaning sacrifices one’s promises to voters in favor of currying favor with outsider influencers. -
@MinneMike What if you agree w/ the outside influencers and it results in going to the right rather than left? -
@DavidMDrucker the biggest distinction is “inside-out” versus “outside-in” inside-out meaning a set of convictions and principles.

@DavidMDrucker A good example is on Ethanol Mandate. Cruz opposes even when going against lobbyists could cost him votes. -
@MinneMike I don't believe in the omnipotent power of lobbyists, but that's another story. ... Cruz is strongest on this issue of any R. -
@DavidMDrucker I thought this was instructive.. Watch “Jack Welch: Ted Cruz is speaking the truth” on YouTube - https://youtu.be/fqJse1hNUCo
