Do you have any clue as to why Cruz brought up the H-1B amendment?
Do you know what was happening in DC at that time?<--It's called a clue

I can’t vote for _________ because he doesn’t adhere to each and every one of my positions.

So, if _________ doesn’t get the nominaton, I will sit on my hands and not vote and send a strong message!

That being said, I will not vote for the chosen one of the GOPe. I left the Republican Party after over 60-years of loyalty when I realized that they had become a subset of the RAT Party... forming the UniParty.

I am a Constitutional Conservative.

If you're defending Cruz's support for replacement of U.S. workers with foreigners on H1-B visas, must mean you've drunk the Kool Aid.

He was wrong on fast track.

He is wrong about the visas too.

At least Cruz changed his mind on fast track (after the fix was in for it to pass). I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that he truly abandoned his support of fast track.

However, he has yet to explain his support for expanding H1-B visas.

As for clues, you can guess where I think you should put that comment. Hint - You'll need a flashlight and both hands to find it.

Good post but I don’t share the view that what we’re dealing with can be fixed by the weak medicine of a ballot or by electing some sort of white knight.

We’re being played by the political class. They implement all manner of horrors and thievery but that’s OK, because we get one in one hundred millionth of a voice in who gets to implement it. It’s political three card monte, and we’re the marks.

whomever the VP pick is will become a
viable POTUS candidate in the future

Trump would make a lousy VP (and probably a lousy President too).

That being said, if Trump became VP, he would not be a viable candidate for POTUS because of his age.

When the next POTUS/VPOTUS are sworn in, Trump will be 70. Except as a publicity stunt, there's no way he's running as a sitting VP for the presidency while in his late 70s.

You owe and answer for your trolling rhetorical BS about Cruz. If you don't
know the facts then admit you're an ignorant low information voter.

Attacking me for calling you out gives you no favor, you brought it up
and I asked legitimate questions.

Now answer the questions in post #41 since you're so damned smart.

Four SCOTUS members are well over 70, narcissism knows not age, but ego.

Not giving away the farm is hardly being ‘’isolationist’’. NAFTA, CAFTA, GATT, & TPP are all agreements that have played a significant role in the destruction of our economy & the explosion in unemployment.

TPP is SO bad, it even includes unemployment provisions for the jobs that WILL be lost.

Oh, you ‘’demand’’, huh? I don’t give a flip what you ‘’demand’’ OR what you label me, MadMax. Clearly, you’re projecting your own motives.

Non sequitor much?

You guys are unhinged.

Well apparently you care so much about H1B you are compelled to come
into Cruz threads to voice your opposition, which leads to the question of who
you are supporting that is an isolationist.

And it's obvious you have no clue about why Cruz brought that Amendment.
You should look into that. Check the timeline.

You would not otherwise be so worried about the H1B if it concerns you so
much that the most Conservative candidate doesn't meet your standards.


Remember the keywords that set off liberals? Halliburton/Bush/Cheney.

Now there's one for Cruz detractors, (H1B)!

Not trolling re: Cruz. Right now he's the cleanest dirty shirt in the laundry basket.

I will donate to his campaign if he is the GOP nominee and vote for him in the general election.

I may vote for him in the primary (voted for him for Senator in the primary, the runoff, and the general election).

However, I will not support him in the primaries because of the fast track and visa issues we've discussed in prior comments.

You do Cruz no favors by accusations of trolling where one disagrees with fundamental positions he has held (still holds?) on key issues.

Will not play cutesy "clue" games with you.

The burden is on Cruz to win support (like every other candidate).

And BTW, it's (MaxMax) not Madmax. It's a simple enough name that you
should be able to get it right next time.

Now or never? Or beyond the point of no return?

IMO - it's up to the People and the States (Governors and Sheriffs) to decide.

And so who do you support in the Primary that is so much more Isolationist
and Conservative than Cruz? Btw, Cruz isn't Isolationist, and neither was Reagan.

You come to a Cruz thread not voicing concern, but rather spouting talking
points from Walker and Jeb bots, without saying who is better.

Vetting is good, but being realistic on what you find is better because if
you attack a candidate without knowing the facts behind your low information
words, then yes, you're trolling.

And so who do you support in the Primary

No one at this point.

If the Texas primary were held today, I'd hold my nose and vote for Cruz. However, I won't donate time or money to him in the primaries.

If he's the GOP nominee, I'll support him.

And you can continue to make the trolling accusation all you want. Just makes you look irrational. Disagreeing with Cruz on a couple of issues is okay. He is not the Messiah. Put down the glass of Kool Aid.

Cruz has lots of warts and I trust Trump more on illegal immigration then I trust Cruz. Notice in his list of treats illegal immigration was missing. That is the biggest treat of them all and Cruz failed to mention it. If Cruz is the nominee I’ll support him but he is a member of the club (Globalists) Trump is not.

You came here spouting H1B, so I'll ask you,
Do you know why Cruz brought the H1B amendment?

Trump is not a Constitutionalist either. Maybe that doesn't concern you,
which it should. The situation we're in now is over the lack of
Constitutional law prosecution.
