"The father of right wing Texas Senator Ted Cruz, the most visible leader of the now-ended government shutdown, is seen in recently uncovered videos calling for America to be ruled by "kings" who will take money from anyone who is not an evangelical Christian and deliver it into the hands of fundamentalist preachers and their acolytes.
Megachurch preacher Larry Huch suggested that Rafael Cruz's own son, Ted, is one of those "kings." And in fact, at a ceremony this past July Ted Cruz was "anointed" by a group of fundamentalist preachers in a special blessing ceremony.
During the 2008 presidential campaign, then-Senator Barack Obama was accused by conservatives of advocating "redistribution of wealth" from the wealthy to the needy. But in his speech given last year, Rafael Cruz calls for "a great transfer of wealth."
The difference is, in Cruz's scheme, the transfer will occur through a war against "the wicked" led by Christian preachers who will take the wealth from nonbelievers.
"The wealth of the wicked is stored for the righteous," said the elder Cruz at an Irving, Texas megachurch in August of 2012. "And it is through the kings, anointed to take dominion, that that transfer of wealth is going to occur."
"I know that's why God got Rafael's son elected - Ted Cruz, the next Senator," said Huch, pastor of the New Beginnings megachurch, introducing Rafael Cruz's speech.
"Kings who are anointed for a totally different reason than priests," Rafael Cruz went on to say. "Kings who are anointed to take dominion. Kings who are anointed to go to war, win the war, and bring the spoils of war to the priests.""
