If you can kill a duck and turn it into gumbo, Phil Robertson will endorse your presidential campaign.
The star of A&E’s Duck Dynasty said Ted Cruz would do just that in a video released by the Cruz campaign.

“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?” says Robertson, who is dressed in camouflage and ready for a duck hunt.
Cruz, he says, is the only candidate that “fits the bill.”
“He’s godly. He loves us. He’s the man for job and he will go duck hunting, because today, we’re going,” Robertson says.
