Halperin: Cruz’s Speech Was ‘Less a Conventional Speech and More a Megachurch Sermon’

"Well, what you want in your presidential campaign announcement is to show the country who you are and why you're better and what do you think your strengths are. I think Ted Cruz hold it off there. Less a conventional announcement speech more like a mega-church sermon in terms of its staging and its cadences. Mark Halperin with John Heilemann having just watched Ted Cruz at Liberty University. There he is on stage with his wife and his daughters in a rousing, conversational -- and as we can tell from Margaret [indecipherable] reporter down on the ground -- a telepromterless announcement speech."
