Ted Cruz, Con-Con, North American Union...
 

Ted Cruz apparently supports a constitutional convention. His wife appears to have been part of the CFR scheme for a North American Union. Cruz supports the TPP (Trans Pacific Partnership). He apparently wants to expand and "strengthen" NICS checks for firearm purchases.

Yet another closet socialist commie foreignor masquerading as a pro-American, pro-freedom patriot.

But but but he is good at debates.

Re: Ted Cruz, Con-Con, North American Union...
 

I would note that you almost always reference some obscure website.

Regarding his wife, Heidi, at CFR, she was a term member, along with the other thousands of members. She joined trying to promote conservative values, much like John Bolton. Her term expired before Ted Cruz attacked the organization calling them, “a pit of vipers”. LOL!

Regarding the Convention of States, it simply puts the balance of power back to the states. The states have the ultimate authority and should use that authority against the unbridled federal bureaucracy in the 3 branches of government who are not keeping a balance of power, but are mutating and enforcing each other. That is not how a constitutional republic is supposed to work.

So, again, you are fear mongering instead of pointing to the fact that Article V of the Constitution gives states the right and the power in two ways:

1. By two-thirds majorities in both houses of Congress
2. By a convention called by two-thirds of the state legislatures.

Whichever way an amendment is proposed, however, it cannot become part of the Constitution unless it is ratified by three-quarters of the states.

On TPP, you keep spreading a lie, Esaias. Sen. Ted Cruz believes, like Reagan in free trade. However, TPP has not been voted on as yet. Sen. Ted Cruz's exact wording is thus:

And please note the difference between TPA and TPP:

TPP is a trade deal being negotiated in secret by the Obama administration. It’s so secret that if a Congressman wanted to read it, they have to go into a secure facility, leaving all electronic devices outside, and can’t even take notes.

TPA authorizes the president to negotiate trade deals but includes 150 negotiating points that must be included in the final deal and requires the final agreement, once negotiated, be made public for 60 days and then gives Congress, including the House of Representatives, the power to vote up or down on the deal. Under TPA, Congress includes directives to negotiators and requires the deal be made public. That’s less power.

The details on the NICS bill that Grassley and Cruz put out together. And please note that the Guns Owners of America, who are more conservative than the NRA have endorsed Ted Cruz's presidential bid.

I bet Esaias saw some black helicopters today.

Re: Ted Cruz, Con-Con, North American Union...
 

And let me also add something regarding the H1B visas, since that is another bone of contention for you. LOL!

1) H1b is not an "immigrant" visa

2) 325,000 H1b visa holders (what Cruz asked for in his amendment) is NOT a big number compared to immigration limits in general or compared to illegal aliens.

3) H1b visa holders are not illegal aliens

4) Cruz only used that number in an amendment fight to help stop the Gang-of-Eight bill. It's not a number he's asking for in his immigration plan. It was purely a way to show that the Dems didn't want quality immigrants.

5) H1b visas are not being used to replace American workers at any significant level. A few corporations have abused the H1b process like that, and they've been called out on it. Disney even changed its mind with part of the layoffs because of that reaction.

6) Legal workers and quality immigrants who speak English and have employment are not the problem. The problem is other visa types that offer refugee status and even immigration status to poor, unskilled, non-English speakers who will not assimilate.

7) We take in over a million "immigrants" each year. (H1b visa holders are not counted among them due to Item 1, above). A huge number of them are "refugees" whom Obama is importing to destroy our culture. These so-called refugees are people who will not assimilate, are not well educated, do not speak English, and do not like (and in fact many actively hate) America.

8) Those refugees will get green cards almost immediately, without having to go through any of the expense and wait and paperwork that "real" immigrants have to deal with.

Cruz is correct on this issue. He knows the numbers, and he knows that we do need more quality immigrants and legal resident workers, and we need to stop giving permanent resident status to people that are not qualifed to emigrate to America.

Please also note that many H1b visa holders, who come here from countries where they get good educations and are not usually anti-capitalism, are the kind of people who actually WANT to go back home after being here a few years, so they can return to their families. Their work experience here helps them to get good jobs in their country of origin.

PO why are you using Logic, reason and truth in a discussion about crazy conspiracy theories?

Re: Ted Cruz, Con-Con, North American Union...
 

Everybody said the European Union was a crazy conspiracy theory, that it didn't exist, would never happen, etc. Yet, voila! Here we area (and have been for some time).

The TPP is real, if you deny it's existence you are living with your head in the sand.

The North American Union is real, how can you deny this? How can you deny the existence of powerful government and business leaders signing treaties and making agreements that follow think-tank plans and olicies for the creation of a North American Union and global government. Oh wait, you just stick your fingers in the ears and go 'tra la la la la' and it all goes away, right?

Ted Cruz supports the destruction of American national sovereignty. He supports the TPP. He supports expanded federal encroachments on the second Amendment. He supports increasing the number of foreign workers in America at a time when we have higher citizen unemployment than during the GREAT DEPRESSION.

Ted Cruz's wife works for Goldman Sachs. She (According to the information I have seen, haven't seen anything refuting it) apparently helped develop the CFR plan for the North American Union.

You people need to wake up, things are not the technicolour fairy tale you have been told it was.

No, I was too busy taking pics of the cattle cars with the shackles in them.

Re: Ted Cruz, Con-Con, North American Union...
 

By the way, I DO have some anecdotes about 'black helicopters' from back in the early-mid 90s, personal experiences of mine and some others I know, including some who at that time were as ostrichified as some as you guys... who SAW and WITNESSED things that changed their minds right lickity split. And yes, they involve not only black helicopters taking an inordinate interest in my whereabouts and my home, but unnanounced and inexplicable visits by suit-and-tie LEO types for the stupidest and most unbelievable of reasons.

Hey, are any of you involved in right to life activities? No? then you have NO IDEA what's going on, been going on, and will be going on in these regards. Talk about living in a bad episode of a Robert Ludlum book, try volunteering with any local genuine Right To Life. You'll discover all sorts of neat things, like how 'bugs' really work, what 'gang stalking' is all about, and just how 'friendly' various suit and tie types can be behind their black sunglasses...

Re: Ted Cruz, Con-Con, North American Union...
 

no they didn't...

it was an idea that at one point was thought to be impossible but as those nations came closer and closer together, it became a possibility and then it became a reality .

but there was no conspiracy. It was an idea that was out in the open and written about and from that the EU was born.

nothing about that was conspiratorial.

TPP may happen. its pretty much out there to happen. what the final shape will be remains to be seen but its not some wild NWO conspiracy.

Nor is Cruz a crackpot commie. good grief dude.

Re: Ted Cruz, Con-Con, North American Union...
 

This is my point. The TPP, the NAU, NAFTA, GATT, etc etc etc are NOT SECRET CONSPIRACIES. The people in a position to make them happen have been saying that is what they are doing, they've been saying it for over a hundred years. The information is entirely PUBLIC. The ones orchestrating these things have been publicly talking about it.

BUT, the masses said, and continue to say, "O poo, it's all a bunch of conspiracy theories, never happen, blah blah blah." Anyone who says 'Hey, lookie here, see what's going on?" is almost immediately tarred with the 'conspiracy theory' brush as if that accusation has any bearing whatsoever on anything.

Think it's time we stop - Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look what's goin' down... all the mammoths are in the ground... oops, sorry bout that... had one of my moments ...

:thumbsup

Re: Ted Cruz, Con-Con, North American Union...
 

LOL! I obviously answered for the viewers sake.

America has business entities ALL over the world. There is no way that we can be an isolationist country. The problem isn't trade, it is currency manipulation.
