Final Poll Analysis with rankings

Question 1: How would you vote (or how did you vote) on fast-track, and would you support or oppose advancing a final trade agreement which enters the United States into a new international commission with binding authority on future United States trade policy?
ANSWER: I was steadfastly opposed to giving Obama his Fast-Track powers, and would have absolutely voted against it. This is one of the strongest distinctions between me and the other candidates in this race. The Congress, apparently under the magical spell of donors, gave massive new powers to a President who has repeatedly abused his authority. The other candidates in this race actually fought on Obama’s side to give him more power to abuse.
As for creating a new international commission with authority over United States trade policy I am, again, steadfastly opposed. No foreign power should be given any control over the United States. Yet the other candidates who supported Fast Track allowed President Obama to do just that. It’s not too late to save our sovereignty: when I win the nomination, I will put America back in charge.
Question 2: If the vote on the Trans-Pacific Partnership were held today, and you had a vote to cast in Congress, would you vote for it or against it?
ANSWER: I have strongly and consistently opposed the TPP. For decades, I have warned about how our terrible trade deals are killing the middle class. We are getting taken to the cleaners. My message on trade has been consistent from the beginning, and if politicians had listened to me years ago we would have saved millions of jobs, rebuilt our crumbling infrastructure, and saved trillions of dollars.
My candidacy is the only way to stop this terrible deal that will send our manufacturing

Because he already voted on many of those items his record speaks for itself he voted for the very things that are antithetical to everything Donald Trump proposed in his answers
AWESOME!!
LOVE that one! Do you mind if i ask what software you’re using for making those?

This one is not mine. It is very cleverly done, and I don’t know how they created it. For now, it’s above my pay grade.
It is very impressive.
The creator’s name (group name or whatever) is on the graphic mid top right.
Well..., this is where the real game begins.
New Hampshire is not earth shattering, but it is at least a real primary where normal voting rules apply.
Like the Chamber of Commerce?
Trump is a “conservative” or you define for me, in his policy statements, how he is NOT!! Don’t give me this 1978 conjecture crap. I want his positions and quotes that tell you he is not a “conservative. Do it in numerical or alphabetic order so we have a full and complete list and do not state conclusions— STATE current relative FACTS and quotes!! Good luck— work hard.
thanks
I am not waiting for the perfect candidate.
I have found the one I believe will be most effective and has the has the will to do the job.
I am aware of Ted’s track record going back to his work as an adviser to the Bush campaign.
The theme running through Ted’s advise to Bush and his votes on TPA and the Corker bill is one of globalism.
Increasing H1B visas and saying the reason for illegal immigrants coming here was because of poverty in Mexico. His solution to that was to increase the living standard in Mexico. How is that done? By encouraging American companies to move there.
TPA, the Iran deal, and open boarders are all economically driven with both cheap labor and opening new markets.
With Ted’s votes and his stances on immigration, when he was not running for office, tell me that he is very much a globalist.
He is, without a doubt, the most conservative on social issues but what difference will that make when we are no longer a country?

Can not be boldly stated enough ;-)
Thanks!
Hmmm, it’s amazing Donald Trump and I agree on all of Mr. Sessions’ questions. The Donald and I are for America and Americans FIRST. We need to put OUR people to work, we need to KEEP Manufacturing HERE and not some far off land. Those items from far off lands need a strong tariff coming into OUR country. None of our American cars are made fully in America, the parts are from everywhere. We can’t even find Ford Tractor parts, they’re made elsewhere and we have to wait weeks to get a needed part. This is for the birds.
Trump said that in the first days or weeks following his 6-16 announcement.
In the last paragraphs of “The Art of the Deal” (1987), Trump talks about...
What’s next
Fortunately, I don’t know the answer, because if the did, that would take half the fun out of it.
This much I do know: it won’t be the same.
I’ve spent the first twenty years of my working life building, accumulating, and accomplishing things that many said could not be done. The biggest challenge I see over the next twenty years is to figure out some creative ways to give back some of what I’ve gotten.
I don’t just mean money, although that’s part of it. It’s easy to be generous when you’ve got a lot, and anyone who does, should be. But what I admire most are people who put themselves directly on the line. I’ve never been terribly interested in why people give, because their motivation is rarely what it seems to be, and it’s almost never pure altruism. To me what matters is the doing, and giving time is far more valuable than just giving money.
In my life, there are two things I’ve found I’m very good at: overcoming obstacles and motivating good people to do their best work. One of the challenges ahead is how to use those skills as successfully in the service of others as I’ve done, up till now, on my own behalf.
Don’t get me wrong. I also plan to keep making deals, big deals, and right around the clock.
Once again a very good post.
Yes, I also was for Cruz until I started finding out about his actions and not just the words.
Perhaps he doesn’t realize that you don’t have to go to Harvard to know what’s really going on.
