"My biggest hesitation about Cruz is really twofold. First is his cozy relationship with Goldman Sachs. How does the most Conservative person to come along in our lifetime have a wife who is top manager at the worst bank on the planet? This bank is the one that orchestrated the last meltdown and whose CEO became the head of the Obama financial arm. This bank has some of the most hardcore Communist thinkers on the planet with the likes of Robert Ruben, Rahm Emanuel, Corzine, Mark Patterson who wrote TARP and directed the $10 Billion GS bailout. GSachs is at the heart of every crony capitalist bailout and termed the phrase, too big to fail. This is not Conservatism and why the cozy relationship, campaign cash and wife on temporary leave from an upper management position? This is what looks like another crony relationship whether it is or is not."

Hummm, reading her Bio (wiki I know but it was easily available) it sounds like she had/has a job with GS in Houston and started that job 2005 as a private wealth manager? Doesn't sound like any kind of power player in the GS organization by any stretch of the imagination. Other than normal politics this sound like pure BS. I work for a big public utility, the only thing I'm guilty of is having a great job, that I do well.

Well, first of all you’re quoting Bray’s essay so that should be addressed to him.

However, I do think your point is very valid.

After years of getting screwed by Washington lawyer/politicians from both parties, however, it is easy to see conspiracies all over the political spectrum.

But yeah, I work at a University. They’re all cesspools of liberal, leftist insanity for the most part. But that doesn’t mean I’m one!

Personally I like Cruz. He is my number two choice. I only have Trump as number one because I’m certain Washington NEEDS a shakeup of enormous strength, and only Trump can deliver that.

If you have no problem with her working at GS while he is President that is fine. Just a question for some.

Watching him on Fox vs Trump was pretty dramatic. Trump controlled the debate and got Chris to enjoy the discussion while Cruz let Chris control it. Trump was the obvious leader and Cruz needs more polish.
