Like any good presidential candidate courting conservative Republican voters, Ted Cruz is a country music fan. In an interview with CBS News Tuesday, Cruz said he grew up listening to classic rock, but became a country fan after 9/11 because of how musicians responded to the attacks. "I actually find this intellectually curious, but on 9/11, I didn't like how rock music responded, and country music collectively, the way they responded, it resonated with me, and I just have to say just at a gut level, I had an emotional reaction that said these are my people," he said. - Greg GuitarBuster

I'm so glad that he cleared that up, or I would have continued to confuse Ted Cruz with Ted Nugent. - Greg GuitarBuster
