"While Sen.
Ted Cruz (R-Texas) received a very warm welcome from most of the 10,000 Liberty University students present at his presidential campaign kickoff, not all were happy that they had to attend the event or face a fine.
One of those annoyed students was junior Eli McGowan, who runs the Students for Rand club in support of Sen.
Rand Paul (R-Ky.).
'We were upset about it,' he told BuzzFeed.
'We know that Ted Cruz knows this and it's a smart idea to have a captive audience to announce your campaign.
To have 10,000 people show up.
Most students take this as a tacit endorsement.
People on Facebook have been saying, oh the board wouldn't have allowed him to come if they didn't think he was the right candidate.'” *
