Cruz calls basketball hoop "basketball ring" = not American !

[mdk]

And Obama called a navy corpsman a corpseman so I'm not really sure what the point here is.

Other than to crack wise about our so-called betters? Nothing. lol

I think the point is he got caught pandering. Nothing wrong with it. All politicians do it in elections, just not quite so obvious.

Lol! Stupid Ted trying to impress Indiana voters wh his botched line from the movie Hoosiers .

Ted Cruz calls basketball hoop a 'ring' in embarrassing 'Hoosiers' gaffe

"You know, the amazing thing about that basketball ring here in Indiana, it's the same height as it is in New York City and every other place in this country. And there is nothing that Hoosiers cannot do."

I'm not American, I know nothing about Basketball, but even I know it's a Basketball hoop. I have no idea what Hoosiers are or is.
