Duck Dynasty Commander Announces He Is Backing Ted Cruz According to recent reports, Phil Robertson, Commander of the Duck Dynast, has just announced that he will be endorsing Ted Cruz for the White House. Ted Cruz is my man, Im voting for him, Robertson told reporters at Fox News. Robertson also reportedly took Cruz hunting recently, which is where the reality TV star made the final decision. My qualifications for president of the United States are rather narrow: Is he or she Godly, does he or she love us, can he or she do the job, and finally would they kill a duck and put him in a pot and make him a good duck gumbo? Robertson commented. Cruz fits the bill. Of course, Cruz is elated with the news. I am thrilled to have Phils support for our campaign, the presidential hopeful commented. The Robertsons are a strong family of great Christian faith and conservative values. Phils business success is also demonstrative of the American dream. Phils story of starting off with something small and working hard to achieve the American dream is inspiring, Cruz added. Much like my parents, and many other Americans, who started a small business and worked hard to provide for our family. What do you think of Phils endorsement?
