No, what has been shown is that Cruz isn't ready for the big leagues.

Actually is shows just the opposite.

The position of POTUS should only be filled by a man or woman who DOES NOT stubbornly stick to his/her position when new facts show that that position is now incorrect.

That is a sign of wisdom, and something most of the candidates for POTUS lack.

Well, why did he vote to give Obama power?

He was elected to stop Obama.

I take issue with your statement “when new facts show that that position is now incorrect”.

The original Senate version of TPA that Senator Cruz voted YES on was not the same as the House version of TPA that he voted NO on.

But because both versions were labeled as ‘TPA’, people think Ted Cruz flip-flopped due to public pressure. He most certainly did not flip-flop. He saw the changes and changed his vote accordingly.

Ted is led by principle, not by public perception. That has been made clear so many times. Just ask the Iowa ethanol producers.
