Consider this a free seminar on the intricacies of enacting a trade deal in Congress.
Only last week the media was all atwitter about Cruz jumping the Conservative ship, and voting to support (parts of) Obama’s pacific trade pact. This is complicated stuff, and not very sexy. You simply can’t explain it with a sound bite. But listen to this twenty-minute radio interview with Cruz as he brilliantly breaks down his position and in the process teaches us a lot about foreign trade, the Congressional process, and himself.
People who question Ted Cruz’s “electability” are missing the point. The question isn’t whether or not he can win, but what happens to us if he doesn’t.

he belongs on the supreme court in the near future.
> “Is Ted Cruz Too Smart to Be President?”
Is Dan Friedman too dumb to be journalist?
Oh pardon me, ...one can never be too dumb to be a journalist.
Even better, he will be nominating Supreme Court justices and make us proud
Ted Cruz would make a fine president. I don’t see anyone else out there that would be nearly as aggressive at handling the democrats.
Please explain your constitutional scholarship and international trade expertise.
Exactly.
.
We've spent quite a bit of time this listening to Ted Cruz tell us why he knows what's best. Now he really should listen to US workers who actually lose jobs because of global manipulations.
Who is “we”?
What is your (”we”) expertise in international trade? What is your (”we”) background as a constitutional scholar?
You mean like the Constitutional Scholar in the Whitehouse that’s also the smartest guy in the room? That worked out well.
Imagine: President Cruz, Nov. 2024, now a lame duck President with only two months or so left in office. Ruth 'Buzzi' Ginsberg falls into a permanent nap.
54 year old Ted Cruz then nominates himself to replace her.
Ahh per chance to dream...
The author makes a good point.
All the other candidates have run and hid on the TPA matter. Those who proclaimed outrage (Perry, Carly, Huckabee) haven’t read the documents and are simply playing to the loudest voices (many who weren’t for Cruz to begin with).
Ted provided detailed explains during two recent radio interviews a radio broadcast town hall meeting, and his press release.
He provided a clinic on TPA, trade agreements, and the legislative process.
Haven’t you learned anything in the last 6 years? They know best, after all.
By “we” I mean US citizens. I don’t have any expertise; I’m just trying to apply logic to an out of control situation in which all but the global elite are sliding into poverty. I don’t see why we owe them and their banks anything except disdain.
Ted Cruz should be president of the upcoming Article V state amendments convention.
There or Attorney General. Or BOTH
Yeah, a clinic on something that we have to wait until its passed to know what’s in it. And save your breath, I know the difference between the TPA and TPP and the subordinate parts. It’s a hollow argument. Bring it out to the sunshine and let’s see what it (TPP) really says.
He’s got my vote as I think he’s way above everyone else, but i would like to know, in detail, how this would bring jobs to the US and in what sectors?
i dont see how manufacturing can be helped when there are countries who can make things for pennies on the dollar.
But I’m VERY open to listening.
I think investment banks, law firms and the ilk would benefit and they actually have many millions working for them, I have been one of them. but I want to know about the blue collar guy.
