I am a Cruz man but I will admit he has some problem areas this chart doesn’t reveal. He voted for the Corker amendment and his position on work visas leaves much to be desired. This is cause for concern. BUT...even with this he is miles better than his competition if one looks purely to the issues.

Budget: Cruz has made massive financial deals, has put tens of thosuands of people to work, has run a billion dollar business, and protected a bottom line.  Next flight of fantasy...
Civil Liberties: Trump has said he'll round up and deport illegal immigrants, build a wall that is 60 feet tall along our border.  This results in his red marker on civil liberties.  No sale.
Free Market: The "FREE MARKET"...  Nothing in life is free.  The cost of this "FREE MARKET" has been tens of millions of U. S. jobs.  Trump wants to bring them back.  That warrants a red marker.  LOL
Health Care and Entitlements: Trump has proposed a private sector replacement of Obamacare.  He wants to reduce entitlements as part of getting the budget under control.  This red marker is simply proposterous.
Moral issues:  What moral issues?  Good grief.  Name one moral issue Trump has a problem with.
Second Amendment:  This is simply a fraud.  Trump has a paper on Second Amendment rights, and it's recognized as a good one.
Taxes, Economy, and Trade:  Trump's tax position is good.  His economic experience is second to very few U. S. Citizens.  His trade view are more solid than any other candidate's.

In Cruz's favor, his free market mark isn't deserved either.

Trump is the go to guy because of his economic experience.  He is solid on other issues as well, but second to illegal immigration, our national debt and related matters are vitally important and need to be addressed.  Trump is the only candidate with the experience necessary to do that.

Cruz supporters are pleased to drop this bomb on the forum.

It isn't an accurate display on Trump.  As such it's actually a smear on Cruz when his supporters tout it as a reason to support Cruz.  What they should be doing is pointing out the obvious flaws in this ranking.  And RANK is the proper word here....

Interesting graphic. My hope is that Senator Cruz will be Mr. Trump's VP, and after a successful 4-8 years, Mr. Cruz will step into the limelight, and as President will be able to use his bully pulpit and leader of the majority party to focus on the problems that he sees so clearly, that Mr. Trump is not so focused on. Mr. Trump is not perfect, but he dominates everything, he appears to be a very tough guy, and he can win. He will tackle the issues with an ax, and then President Cruz can take a scalpel and finish the job.

Cruz voted to reauthorize the Patriot Act. Cruz is not good on Civil Liberties.
Cruz does not say he would enforce existing laws and deport illegals here in the USA. Cruz is not good on immigration.

Your chart is BS.
