I had the opportunity to catch up with Sen. Ted Cruz Saturday at the Practical Federalism Forum in New Hampshire:
ThePulse2016: In 30 seconds or less, explain why Americans should vote for you.
Sen. Ted Cruz: I think Americans are tired of campaign conservatives, people who talk a good game on the trail, but they haven’t walked the walk. I think we’re looking for a consistent conservative. Someone who’s been the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. And in the Republican primary, everyone’s talking about how they’re going to fight Washington. Well, the natural next question is: ‘well, when have you actually stood up and done that? When have you taken on the Washington cartel?’ What I’ve tried to do in my time in the Senate is very simple. Two things: Tell the truth, and do what I said I would do. On fight after fight after fight whether it’s stopping Obamacare, stopping amnesty, stopping Planned Parenthood, or stopping the Iran deal, I’ve honored the commitments I’ve made to the men and women who elected me. And that’s exactly what I’ll do as President.

325,000 (if true) people coming to work is nothing compared to the millions obama is bringing that are here to mooch benefits and set up crime operations
Here’s why Cruz is bad for well-educated working Americans.
He wants to increase H-1b visas by 500% (about 400,000) foreign workers each year! That’s 400K jobs in the USA going to foreigners instead of well-educated American STEM workers. WHY? because he wants those corporate donations. He knows he can slip this by and thinks people won’t pay attention. IMO, He cares more for the corporate donations than the livelihoods of American citizens.
In our case(2002-2003), my former IT dept was ORDERED to TRAIN our foreign replacements then the American employees were given a small severance and a pink slip while foreigners on visas lived and worked in Lake Mary, FL.
Same thing is happening at Disney Orlando(IT dept) and Toys R Us, NJ (Accountants)

proposed an immediate increase in the base H-1B cap from 65,000 to 325,000. Cruz offered the H-1B increase as an amendment in 2013 to the Senate’s comprehensive immigration bill.
