→Should Cruz drop out? I think he probably should: new section
At the same time, Roman Catholic countries are often more authoritarian. However, the Roman Catholic Church has gotten more and more decentralized in recent times. Easter Orthodox Churches are more authoritarian in their church structure and this has caused Russia/Putin to be more authoritarian. A religion's degree of authoritarianism in its church structure has an effect on its political culture. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 02:09, 22 April 2016 (EDT)

== Should Cruz drop out? I think he probably should ==
I thought about this more. I think Andy is right about this. Cruz should drop out. The only way that Cruz can win at this point is through a contested election.
Does Cruz think that the populist Trump supporters will support him if he wins a contested election? If he does, I think this is wishful thinking - especially given his weakness in the northeastern United States. Many Trump supporter will sit home. I don't see Trump-Cruz detente happening any time soon. But I think Trump's third party run threat is a bluff.
I know Cruz is very much wants to be president. I don't think it is his time. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 02:45, 22 April 2016 (EDT)
