Cruz is sloppy while Trump isn’t? Really?
Unlike Democrats, the GOP allows state parties to allocate or bind the votes of each state’s three automatic delegates. Otherwise, all delegates are elected via convention or primary, and whose votes are bound by state party rules.
The complicated formula is how many delegates each state gets, not how they are selected.
His plan is for getting rid of Obamacare, dropping the borders for Health Insurance competition to make it more competitive, allow for Health Savings Accounts and conceptual deals with charities, hospitals, etc. to take care of indigent, probably similar to Medicaid which already exists. Not universal health care.

Art of the Deal
I was stunned when he said the Canadian system worked during the first debate. He also said something like supporting single player during that debate. I don’t recall the exact words, but it was disappointing.
If one reads Cruz’s book, which I have done he explained his entire process for defeating the Amnesty Bill. Step one attempt to kill it through Legislative tactics(I.E. Poison pill amendments). Step 2 gather support through fellow members of congress. Step three, go to the American people, especially the ones in states and districts that the congressmen are vulnerable. Then rally the support and kill the bill. It worked on the Amnesty, it worked on the Gun ban, and I forget why it didn’t work as well on the Obama repeal, and my copy of A Time For Truth is back home where I can’t get to it, or I would reread to find the reason for it. Ted did go into the reason why it failed. I think it had much to do with the fact of the sequestration cuts and shutting the Government down, and how the Obama administration made sure the public was hurt the most.
Our, his DU screen name.
Yep, lots of dirty tricks and phy ops from Trump’s “wholesome” campaign.
Yeah that would probably lower the cost of insurance, but what about tort reform? Also Ted Cruz explained the exact same plan, adding that he would make healthcare portable, not linked to your job, so that you can take it where ever you go. Cruz also explained this plan months ago, long before Trump had anything but a germ of an idea of what he wanted to do with the entire mess beside repeal of ObamaCare.
Trump is surgical but most folks don’t notice.
What lie has he told?
This is a word the left smear people with unjustl. We should be better.
Can we just shut FR down until after the primaries and have Trump pay for a big ad on the FreeRepublic.com domain?
His tactics failed. Reread my post to find out why it never became law. Or, you can google objective sites, or you can get spin from Cruz sites.
‘Bonus’ delegates get no special status. They are exactly like at-large delegates.
Iowa, for example, has bound the votes of all 30 of its delegates by the presidential preference vote at the caucuses. No unpledged delegates.

_________________________________________________________
Trump said in 1999 — when he was flirting with a presidential rub on the Reform Party ticket — that the U.S. should make health care an entitlement and that coverage should be universal.
” “I’m very liberal when it comes to healthcare,” Mr. Trump said in a 1999 interview on Larry King Live. “I believe in universal healthcare.”
“I would put forward a comprehensive health care program and fund it with an increase in corporate taxes,” Trump said at the time.
“I want people taken care of in the country, okay? You can call it anything you want, but I want — including people that don’t have anything,”
Fox News’ Brett Baier asked Trump: “Now, 15 years ago, you called yourself a liberal on health care. You were for a single-payer system, a Canadian-style system.”
Trump’s answer: “As far as single payer, it works in Canada. It works incredibly well in Scotland. It could have worked in a different age, which is the age you’re talking about here.”
FLIP FLOP, FLIP FLOP. Tomorrow he will change his mind again.
List out Cruz’s lies.
Care to compare with all of the narcissist Trump’s lies and flip flops?
So, Trump has told you and us what we want to hear to win the primary. Isn’t that a lie, when he has said and done other things?
"It was that close to being passed... and I think I can say this with integrity. Without the vigorous opposition of Ted Cruz, this bill likely would have passed." - Sen. Jeff Sessions
