This Christian rap group is 'all in' for Ted Cruz
Mitt Romney had Meat Loaf's endorsement in 2012. And now, Ted Cruz has the support of Christian rap group We Are Watchmen for the 2016 GOP nomination. The group, which describes itself as "a movement that uses music and message to mobilize American Christians to civic duty," recently released "Set It on Fire," a conservative rap anthem that, true to its word, name-drops Ronald Reagan during its first verse.
"The banner is in the air for the conservative ascendancy," We Are Watchmen declare. "Collectivism, everyone's a victim like the reds do," the song continues, before dropping the money line: "And for our next president, we're all in for Ted Cruz." Listen to the track in full below. Samantha Rollins
