Ted must listen to his rich donors to stay in the race. For example, 1. TPA 2. Corker Bill yea vote 3. 500% more H1B visas. They want cheap labor express.
If Ted was independently wealthy, he would be the greatest candidate in 2016.
You really need to break that habit of lying.
Cruz is raising more money than Jeb, even though Ted's average donation is $68 compared to Bush's average $900.
Cruz depends more on grassroots money than anything else. You ought to read his book, especially the account of his Senate race, and the "grassroots guerilla campaign" style he favors.
