I was 100% in his camp and then he decided we need a 500% increase in H1B visas and then he tries to ram this top secret crap sandwich down our throats.
He has committed political suicide. Apparently he thinks he’s smarter than we are. He is, but then we are not nearly as stupid as he thinks we are.
If we want to know why he has taken this track, follow the money.

Cruz wants to get this country back on its feet economically. He talks over and over about creating jobs and bringing back industries, if you were to listen to HIM instead of the knee-jerk posters here.
Our students are not capable of becoming engineers and scientists. Statistics on graduation rates from universities prove this, as do the international math and science tests. IF we want to being back high tech industries NOW (within the 4-8 year time frame one president gets) we cannot wait for an overhaul of our education system. That will take 12 years - IF it is begun immediately, which isn’t likely with liberals having a stranglehold on our schools.
Cruz is anything but stupid. Cruz has held to conservative principles and to what he thinks would best serve this country in the face of threats from the GOP establishment. He is now campaigning for president and is even more in the limelight. Why would he sabotage his campaign? If you actually listen to his words, he is not talking down to us, he is not covering anything up - he is upfront and explains his position. He’s not belittling anyone, like the democrats do when disagreed with nor is he backing down because a handful of knee-jerk freepers are posting the SAME words on every thread, multiple times.
So he fully believes this is best for his vision of the country, one that brings jobs back and revives the economy. That is a central theme in all his interviews. The interviews Freepers aren’t bothering to read before posting inflammatory remarks.
Obviously standing by what he believes is right, explaining it in a rational way, and drawing people into his vision of an economically viable country is more important to Cruz that to say what you want to hear to pander for your vote.
It worked for Reagan. But the liberals have had 35 years since then to dumb-down the schools, so maybe it is too late for this country.
