Random Dude in Iowa is Following Ted Cruz Around and Accusing Him of Liking Nickelback

In what can only be described as a true act of patriotism, some random Iowa dude has been following Ted Cruz around to all of his speaking engagements in Iowa holding up a “Ted Cruz Likes Nickelback” sign.

The random dude, who has refused to identify himself to the press or name his affiliations, also handed out copies of Cruz’s birth certificate, according to the newspaper.

“I just don’t want, really, a Canadian in office,” the protester told The Washington Post. “It seems like he’s got a lot of controversy behind him whether he’s a U.S.-born citizen or not and I’m just out here making a statement.”

Both Ted Cruz and members of the band Nickelback grew up in Alberta, Canada reminding primary voters of the all-important presidential question raised by Donald Trump who also implied that Cruz has terrible musical taste.

However, the band took the protester’s jabs in stride in a Jan. 11 tweet, “NICKELBACK Employee of the Month. January 2016. #Election2016 #Nickelback4President”

But, when asked about his favorite Nickelback song, the protester wisely said, “I don’t like Nickelback.”
