The fact he went to an Ivy League school and came out relatively untarnished is impressive and unusual in my book.

H-1B ping. Let me know if you're not on the list and want to be added (or are and want to be removed).

He wants to attract Trump voters, who pine for the mogul’s anti-immigration and anti-free-trade policies. Yet Cruz supports a large increase in H-1B visas. He was for free trade before he was against it.

Amen.

In a field where all other Republican candidates are saying "better lives through better government done my way," Cruz is the only one who is basically proposing "better lives through less government."

I will only vote for the candidate whose basic guiding principle is to dismantle and eradicate unconstitutional government. The answers to our problems lie in the Constitution; the Constitution has the recipe for the return to American greatness where moral prosperity thrives. Cruz is the only Republican in the race who respects that truth.

The fact that he worked his way through is good. That he started with the constitution studies and teaching as a teenager totally impressive.
Trump has been growing on me though. Lovely choice.

If Jennifer Rubin doesn’t like him, how bad could he be?

fanning the flames of anti-immigrant sentiment

Typical left wing lies. The entire article is crap.

Your tagline is just about the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen on FR.

You can't imagine how it pains me to hear that.

He is as much a cause of partisan gridlock and dysfunction as anyone

Definitely NOT the sign of an insider.

They are scared of Cruz. Good.

This thing is a demonrat. Maybe we should ignore her game of pretending to be a Republican and baiting the GOP into loserville with her.
