It’s true. He’s the only candidate who genuinely knows and loves the Constitution.

But - I hope he comes around on the H1B visas.... it’s my only beef with him. Rush talked about disliking them today, which kind of surprised me.


Same with me...I have serious issues with Cruz stand on H-1B Visas, and I think their use will expand to other areas in addition to IT :(

Echo your comments. It's the single largest issue that I so vehemently disagree with Cruz on.

I work in the Financial Services industry and have been watching people being replaced by "cheaper" H1B's from India for over 10 years now. I personally know so many highly skilled, highly talented and creative people who've been replaced by H1B's.

Here's the thing: It takes MULTIPLE H1B's to replace an American IT worker. American IT folks are typically fairly broad based, meaning they have multiple IT skills that they use daily. H1B's that I've seen are "specialized" into one or two (max) "talents." That's why it takes so many H1B's to replace one American.

This is why I disagree with Cruz so vehemently on H1B's. He's as wrong as he can possibly be on this issue.
