*Cruz:* I wish Senator Kaine was still here. Senator Kaine and I were elected together 13 years ago. He is a friend. I would actually encourage observers to go back and listen to what Senator Kaine said because I have to say, it, I think, was disturbing and showed much of where today’s Democrat Party has gone wrong.
So, Senator Kaine said in this hearing that he found it a radical and dangerous notion that you would say our rights came from God and not from government. I just walked into the hearing as he was saying that, and I almost fell out of my chair because that radical and dangerous notion in his words is literally the founding principle upon which the United States of America was created.
And if you do not believe me, and you made reference to this, Mr. Barnes, then you can believe perhaps the most prominent Virginian to ever serve, Thomas Jefferson, who wrote in the Declaration of Independence, “we hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, and that they are endowed by their Creator.” Not by government, not by the Democratic National Committee, but by God, with certain unalienable rights that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
I have to say, it is stunning to me that the principle that God has given us natural rights is now deemed by Democrats some radical and dangerous notion. Mr. Jefferson was right when he wrote those words. Government exists to protect those rights, but slavery was not okay when US law allowed it. It was wrong, then it is wrong now, it is always
