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?

I agree, I owned a business. It is unfortunate some labor unions did not work WITH our manufacturing companies. The main reason for the our manufacturing base moving to other countries.

Cruz is the most conservative across the board.

There are some positions of Trump that I support and that Cruz has been reluctant to embrace.

He is also more fiscally conservative. Although I understand why some fear the globalism issue. When it comes to globalism, the conservative position is not cut and dry. Globalism CAN be beneficial to our interests, but we need leaders who actually put our interests first. There are too many sellouts.

Part of the problem is trying to compete with businesses that do not have to pay American wages, deal with US labor laws, OSHA, and other bureaucracy.

Cruz is for low tax and reducing government waste, and also getting the federal government out of unconstitutional nanny state activities. Strong fiscal conservatism even if he is not a protectionist. I really do not think Trump and Cruz are different on globalism. Trump is probably a better negotiator on international trade though.

A Trump-Cruz ticket is the biggest fear of Dems. It would be unstoppable.

“He is, without a doubt, the most conservative on social issues but what difference will that make when we are no longer a country?”

Do we have one now? When Planned Parenthood is caught selling baby body parts, they are not indicted but the investigative journalists are. When Christians who own their own business are told they must participate in abortion and homosexual marriage or lose their business, face crippling fines, or even be thrown in jail, do we still have the country?
