As I said, the weakest elements in a Cruz policy with several stronger protections. Any beef with the Cruz planks I cited in post #48?
My beef as you call it is that IMHO Cruz is not be be trusted on his sudden ‘seeing the light’. Cruz has a history of shilling for ‘free trade agreements’ and flooding the country with ‘guest workers’.
So you agree that Cruz' current platform is sound policy? As for trust, there are no perfect candidates in this race: Trump has changed position on a great many things since the 2012 election cycle - when he called Romney's policy of self-deportation for illegals "maniacal" (and some of his positions remain liberal, e.g., everybody gets health coverage).
Please do not put words in my post and assume I agree with Cruz’s plank. You know what they say about assume.
I ought to have been more specific- part of ‘my beef’ is what I perceive to be Cruz’s basic lack of trustworthiness.
You and I obviously have very different perceptions of Cruz’s trustworthiness.
What you label weakness in his planks, I label obfuscation.
The H-1B was designed, as you have posted to be abused. ‘Fixing’ it is like putting lipstick on a pig.
Cruz’s handling of TPA is a prime example how Cruz sets up a situation where he can honestly say he voted against TPA the second time it came up all the while promoting, along with Ryan, hiding TPA in a bill about pensions. Links available .
Another example Cruz could put all the questions about his citizenship to rest by releasing all the relevant records, Instead he has sealed them, just like Obama. A major red flag. When questions about his mother becoming a Canadian citizen came up Cruz released his mother’s birth certificate. That proves nothing about her citizenship at the time of Cruz’s birth.
TO repeat you and I have very different views of Cruz’s honesty.
