True but being for Trade negotiation authority, and then being against the deal that comes back is ok. Free Trade is good, the TPP is bad. TPA is okay because all it is is the rules and guidelines for the negotiations. Taking Obama’s stance on something to smear Cruz an entirely different candidate is kind of off the mark.

Yes I have noticed that trade goods are predominantly coming from oversees. Lets ruminate on why that is for a second, could it be that all of those other countries don’t charge near as much tax as we do. Thereby making it cheaper to make there than here. There is also the Minimum wage driving costs up, as well as all the regulations put in place by the Federal Government.

If only there was a candidate, who not only wants to shrink the government; but also has a history of defending our national sovereignty, as well as our constitution......... someone like Ted Cruz.

The joblessness rate is a result of the government interference in the free market in the form of Subsidies, Regulations, Price Caps, Minimum wage, out of control government spending, disregard for our Constitution and crippling taxes........... if only we had a candidate who articulated these problems better than, “our leaders are stupid”............if only we had a candidate with ideas on how to fix the problem other than, “trust me , I will be great for the economy.”.............. like you guessed it Ted Cruz

No, the reason is that wages are way below the American average. That is why our industry is moving to Mexico.

“...but also has a history of defending our national sovereignty...”

Those trade deals end our national sovereignty. Even Cruz has stated that. Did not keep him from voting for TPA.
