Ted Cruz: If You Are Politically Left of Center, You’ve Been Told that Clarence Thomas Is the Devil, You Need to Read and Learn His Story

EXCERPT:

CRUZ: "And look, part of why I wrote it, we're in such an angry time, such a divided time that people are yelling at each other, they‘re angry with each other. We have a shortage of role models. And I think he‘s an extraordinary role model. And I‘ll say, by the way, look, CNN, you have conservatives, you have moderates, you have liberals who listen to CNN and watch CNN. I would encourage you, if you‘re a conservative, you ought to buy the book because it will inspire you. But even if you‘re politically left of center, if you‘ve been told Clarence Thomas is the devil, you ought to read and learn his story because it is extraordinary. And I promise you, even if you think you disagree with him, I believe you‘ll be inspired by it."
