Cruz: Absent Obama Was a ‘Visual Manifestation of What’s Happened over Six Years’

"This weekend was sad to see and it was a very visual manifestation of what’s happened over six years. Over six years America’s receded from leadership in the world and we saw it just this weekend as 40 world leaders walking down the street in Paris and yet, where is America? Where is the president? Presumably he was back at the White House. They haven’t released his schedule, whether he was watching football or what he was doing, he wasn’t standing with our allies, the French, and he wasn’t standing up against radical Islamic terrorism. He wasn’t providing the leadership that the world desperately needs and that America has provided for so long."
