People need to grow the hell up and face reality. All the major candidates aside from Paul have backed TPP in some form or another and Paul has zero chance. If Trump were a serious candidate he would say whatever he thought it takes but he has about half as much chance as Paul.
Of those running, Cruz and Walker are the only ones worthy of consideration in my book and I have real concerns about all the Romney people surrounding Walker. They have a tendency to create strife among candidates only to destroy them all to make room for the anointed GOPe candidate.
I’ve made the mistake of honestly pointing out the fact that all illegals will never be deported and I was attacked from all quarters (just like liberals who step out of line) but it was still a fact. We can get rid of a lot or even most of them by denying them jobs, and welfare, punishing those who knowingly hire illegals etc. Its a multi faceted process.
Unfortunately FReepers get so fixated on the idea of deportation that they drop border security in the first place. (We can deport them all we want but with an open border they just grant themselves amnesty by coming back) The Cruz detractors get all wound up and screech that he wants to increase H1-B visas but that’s only a half truth. He did say he would increase the visas but only after we got the borders under control and secure + assuring that all Americans who could be hired for those jobs were hired.
I share your frustrations...but you can’t unfix people who do not understand the dynamics happening now nor care to understand what Walker and Cruz are trying to do....all they see is the candidates running against one another without seeing that ALL those candidates will indeed let an amnesty deal of some sort go thru..it’s a done deal we simply have yet to see.
Same goes for TPP....it’s going to happen because it has to or this nation will be left in the dust...while Europe and the Eurasian Groups march forward with trade.
I hear people say ...they don’t care if they do....I can relate for I thought that way myself...until I took much time to investigate just what is happening that our media does not report on which other nations do.
I agree both Cruz and Walker would do for what we face...but I choose Cruz as President because he has such familiarity with Constitution Law and is a conservative who will get the best deals for this nation best interests.
Walker lacks familarity with operating on the ground among the thick of it daily in WAshington....Cruz knows well the games and the players as well as their co-hurts...and there will not be time for Walker to go through the learning curve he will have in Washington.
Let’s get Cruz into the Presidency..Walker with him and get “Trump” to build the border walls!!!!

I agree....Walker needs to be careful with who he trusts, who he puts on staff and whose advice he listens to.
To Cruz and Walker, I’d add Carly Fiorina as one worthy of consideration (as VP only right now).
