I don’t care if he and the Bushies are buddies. Im talking about being beholden to the international banking agenda. And he seems like he does indeed fit there.

It is extremely expensive to deport only to turn around and readmit those people as Trump is proposing.

I have been following Cruz since 2011 when he was talking about a wall when Trump still favored amnesty. Cruz’s immigration plan of removing all public assistance incentives, stiff penalties for employing illegals, and strict adherence to immigration law will go a long way to solving the problem.

Cruz is a law and order man, but he is not a dictator. I think he recognizes the importance of border security first, which is something that should be supported by both parties. We implement the other aspects of his plan which will cause many to self deport, then we tackle what’s left. It is a sane and reasonable approach.

Sorry, but letting 40 million people just self-declare they're wonderful, honest, and useful people who actually have a job or an intention to not be straight on welfare, is far more expensive than deporting them and forcing EVERYONE to go through a legal process to insure we even want them in this country.

By the way, I find it fascinating that folks on here-- who had no idea that this was Cruz's plan yesterday-- are all over here endorsing the Bush/Carson/Rubio approach to immigration!

Cruz’s immigration plan of removing all public assistance incentives,

Illegal aliens do not qualify for public assistance in the first place. They get it through their children, or through fraud.

Because his wife worked for Goldman-Sachs?

My wife worked for Hunt Oil. Does that mean I was beholden to Big Oil?

C'mon, there are bigger things to worry about than thin gruel conspiracy crap like that...

He voted against TPA.

After he freaking voted it to the floor where it was known it would pass, and even voted against amendments that would have made it better-- such as an amendment that would have given Congress power to determine what country could enter into the TPP agreement. Cruz's actions guarantee China's entry into TPP.

If your wife was a Goldman Sachs executive who favored the North American Union while a member of the CFR, I'd begin to question you when you start giving me shady freaking excuses for why you voted to give Obama absolute power over TPP and to pass it with a simple up or down vote, or if you started telling conservatives that you oppose amnesty, never supported legalization, even though you do, you damn well do!

Oh, yeah, I remember now. He came out for it, and then voted against after it did not matter. Like I said, we remember. He should apologize.

I recommend you do a little research on Cruz's positions and votes on trade, and TPP specifically, before placing your trust in Cruz.

LOL! Always those who find some reason to aid and abet the Left by slamming the best we have on our side.

Tell me, what credentials do you have that we shouldn't wonder about whether or not what you say is valid? Who do you support? Do you donate to that person's campaign? How about FR - do you support FR with donations?

If you don't actively support those who you espouse (or even have someone in mind) with cash to aid in their efforts, the you don't really espouse conservative principles - lots of company if that's the case.....

Now for a short public service announcement to all on FR:
I prefer Cruz and my money goes to his campaign, hence the Cruz link. If you like someone else, donate to him/her (find your own link to do it) and if you use FR and don't donate, then please don't complain about the welfare leeches or those who have Obama Phones because, functionally, you are no different than any other FReeloader

PS - If you are one of those who cannot afford even a small donation to FR or a candidate, God Bless and happy FReeping!.....

GO CRUZ!! Keep it up Trump!!

Donate to FR

Donate to Cruz

Donate to FR

Maybe you should look at the FR donor board before flapping your worthless mouth. I also donated to cruz, right up until he voted for TPA. So here is a little public service message for you... Eat Shite!

Wow - I must have touched a nerve. You missed the parts where I asked vs. stating.

Since you offered, I took a peek - your name seems to show up once for the 5 years I looked at. If that is accurate, then your creds are pretty weak and I hope the dollar you sent Cruz was well spent by his campaign.
