Senator Ted Cruz, Texas
2016 Republican Party Presidential Candidate


EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Senator Ted Cruz, you must avoid the deadly "political suicide" regarding H1B Visas that will soon erupt as a MAJOR issue in the 2016 Presidential Campaign.
Your continued association (as the voters see it) of supposedly wanting to increase H1B Visas by an "insane" 500-percent will possibly KILL your presidential candidacy.



Senator Ted Cruz, you don't know me from Adam, so please allow me to assure you that I have your very best interests at heart.

First, congratulations with your climb into a solid third-place with the Monmouth Poll reporting you at 15 percent, and candidates Ben Carson and Donald Trump at 28 and 20 percent, respectively.

Contrary to Britt Hume's mendatic intellect, you have a stunning parade of "great accomplishments", both as Texas's junior Senator and as a Presidential candidate.



I've had the honor to meet, talk, and enjoy dinner with your father, Pastor Rafael Cruz in Fort Lauderdale, on Saturday, 20 June 2015 (I'm the gentleman wearing the red shirt). I came to your father's his side while he was harrassed by confused supporters who were alarmed over your first TPP-TPA vote.

"Toby" in your Dallas-area office will confirm to you that I worked day-and-night for almost a week defending you during the "TPP-TPA debacle".

My fellow Free Republic colleagues would confirm that I (at great derision) defended you regarding TPP-TPA.



I am NOT a career politician, or for that matter, a career "political campaign camp follower", looking for a photo, future Washington office job, or even an audiograph.

Rather, I am a Senior Aerospace Mechanical Engineer who's worked on the U.S. Space Shuttle program, and many, many other electronic system projects over the last twenty (20) years.



Senator Ted Cruz, I earned my Mechanical Engineering degree (BSME) over a ten-year period, attending night school, working full-time, and raising a family with four children.

It was a Herculean effort, Sir.



And today, I am an unemployed engineer in the midst of a GREAT national recession-depression. There are perhaps 250,000 other STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) folks like myself who CANNOT find a job in America.

What's the biggest reason ? The million-plus H1B Visas allowed by the evil "Washington Cartel" and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce "Cheap Labor Express".



A perfect example is Disney World (Orlando) who FIRED 250 American Computer Programmers ... and FORCED them to train their replacements from India and Pakistan.

This is morally CRIMINAL.



"Who" will stand with "us", Senator Ted Cruz ?

"We" ask YOU to, Sir.



In closing, Senator Ted Cruz, I again recognize that you don't know me from Adam. Politics is a "blood sport".

Please accept my counsel as King David trusted Ahithophel's. Frankly, those who advise you to continue supporting a 500-percent increase in H1B Visas are as Hushai. Senator Cruz, both you and Pastor Rafael know how Hushai's bad advice cost Absalom his future kingship.



I have included (below) images representing the great efforts (as a non-paid grassroots activist) on behalf of your presidential campaign.

This included personally organizing the successful "Ted Cruz Florida Grassroots Leadership Conference" in Orlando this past 18 July 2015. David Sawyer and "Cindy" will confirm my leadership roles.


Finally, although I am currently unemployed, I AM NOT (under ANY circumstances) asking to work for your presidential campaign (or any Ted Cruz affiliated PAC) in a paid position. This letter is absolutely NOT a "quid pro quo" correspondence.


Respectfully,


Douglas A. Coggeshall
Senior Aerospace Mechanical Engineer

Cruz needs to understand that sovereignty is the number one issue this time. Everything he stands for is important, but sovereignty “trumps” everything.

He can step out in front on this. He needs to step out in front.

[RitaOK]

I’m still trying to recover from Ted’s support of TPP, since he is the smartest man in the room, and then pumping that vote of his all over Aisle 13, where he blames it on McConnell, only because he didn’t listen to Jeff Sessions.

The reason? Ted is FOR TPP, and FOR Amnesty. This is no dope. He just doesn’t want his finger prints on anything GOP. YET!

We are under siege. There are wolves naming the problem, but dare not name the solution. Except for Trump, who intends to break the china, and ignore the wrath.

Go Trump.

[stephenjohnbanker]

H1B’s is a 100% SCAM!!

[stephenjohnbanker]

Cruz has now had ample time to recant on this H1B scam. You are out of time, Ted. Make the statement, or lose a lot of conservatives. That simple.

[tumblindice]

I don’t like his position any more than you do. We should be calling and e-mailing his office, particularly Florida FRiends, and letting him know what we think.
Remember, he has to swim in this Beltway morass, like leftys numbed by their own MSM.

A particularly egregious example of this BS is the company that required its employees to train their foreign replacements, and for no pay, somehow conditioning the severance package on compliance.
So I suppose you could argue they were “paid”, but not really.
At the end of the day, it’s the Cheap Labor Express, or as Popeye’s Pappy put it,
“I don’t care what you call it, son.
“`Greens’. `Victory Salad’.
“It’s spinach and I say to Hell with it!”

[Catsrus]

I’m a Trump supporter. I doubt Cruz will change his position - remember, Goldman Sachs contributes to his campaiogn and they are for amnesty. Club For Growth likes Cruz - and they are also for amnesty open borders. So, no, I won’t email him.

[Carry_Okie]

Cruz' H1B position is one of the principal reasons I have not yet formally come out in support of his candidacy. The Iran vote was another. TPA was a third, which may have been tactically defensible, but was politically stupid.

If Ted Cruz shows the moral courage to admit that he was wrong about any of these, I'm all in, as at that point, I believe the data will convince him of his error on the H1B position.

[conservativejoy]

He already admitted he was wrong about TPA, because of the immigration issues. That is why he changed his mind and voted against it on the final vote.

I hope he will change his position on H1-B visas. I wrote a letter to his campaign expressing my concerns.

On the big issues that matter most to me, Cruz is solid.

[Carry_Okie]

On the big issues that matter most to me, Cruz is solid.

The Corker bill too?

[conservativejoy]

Yes. I read his reasoning behind that vote. It was the best chance we had of slowing down Obama from lifting the sanctions. His amendment would have strengthened the bill, but of course the McConnell led Senate never listens to sound ideas.

[Carry_Okie]

Yes. I read his reasoning behind that vote. It was the best chance we had of slowing down Obama from lifting the sanctions.

Tactically intelligent, politically stupid.

[Liz]

I doubt Cruz will change his position on H1B visas....Goldman Sachs contributes to his campaign and they are for amnesty. Club For Growth likes Cruz - and they are also for amnesty open borders.

Cruz's wife is a Goldman Sachs exec.... she served on the "North American Union task force," and supported their report called Building a North American Community.

That effort was sponsored by the Council on Foreign Relations in association with the Canadian Council of Chief Executives and the Consejo Mexicano de Asuntos Internacionales.

NOTE: translated into English that means forget US sovereignty....just eradicate US borders.

[a fool in paradise]

Bump for later.

[ducks1944]

Patton is right Cruz only changed his mind because it will hurt him with voters…but if get in who will get his ear us or his BILLIONAIRES? I think we all know will. Its time we demand elected stand up for US Citizens not illegals or H1B Visas foreigners. Ask those at Disney who R now losing there jobs to these people with H1B Visas…...

[ducks1944]

Also remember Goldman Sach and stimulus TAX$$$ they got and all the Fanny & Freddie and The Insurance people they took for MILLIONS as well. They was in News for long time over the mess……but much was covered by Obama/HRC/US Congress. Cruz is not better than Rubio or Jeb on illegals or H1B Visas people. They R all coming to steal R jobs from kids…..

[Liz]

Also remember the stimulus TAX DOLLARS G/S pocketed..... and their take from Fanny & Freddie..... and all the Insurance people they took for MILLIONS, as well.

Amen....thanks for the reminder.

Wall Street types like G/S know how to make money disappear faster than a cream puff at a Weight Watcher's weigh-in.
