FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Two conservative Republican senators in the US attended a rally in New Hampshire on Saturday seen by many as marking the unofficial beginning of the state’s 2016 presidential election process.
Senators Rand Paul and Ted Cruz tested the 2016 presidential waters by addressing the “Freedom Summit” in New Hampshire, which holds the first-in-the-nation presidential primary.
The rally was the latest in a series of stops for Cruz and Paul, who are hoping to win the favor of the party’s right wing for a chance to win the White House. The event was hosted by the conservative group Citizens United and Americans for Prosperity, a group funded by the conservative billionaire Koch brothers.
Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, who ran for the Republican nomination in 2008 and is seen as a potential 2016 contender, also spoke at the event.
While no politician has officially stepped into the presidential race yet, Cruz and Paul have been preparing for possible campaigns for months and are considered favorites among conservative Republicans.
The political rally took place at a time when a growing number of Americans are losing faith in the US political system. Earlier in the day in New Hampshire, US Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont warned that millions of Americans are turning away from politics.
Speaking at Saint Anselm College’s New Hampshire Institute of Politics in Manchester, Sanders also criticized the widening wealth and income gap in the United States, national security and health care.
“What exists all over America today is that millions and millions and millions of people – working people, low income people, young people – they look at the political process and they say, ‘Not for me,'” he said. “There are a lot of angry people out there.”
The 72-year-old liberal independent senator said he may consider running in the 2016 presidential election.
