Ted Cruz: “I led a coalition of 31 states before the United States…”

“I didn't say a word about what was hidden in the deep recesses of my heart. What I did say is that when I was the Solicitor General of Texas, I led a coalition of 31 states before the United States Supreme Court defending the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms. And we won. 5, 4. A landmark decision upholding that right. And Then I link to the 2010 NRA's Carter Knight Freedom Fund Award, given every year to one of the leading Second Amendment defenders in the country.” (08:30–08:38)
