“Cruz made it clear in Michigan that he’ll reach out to union members as people rather than union members.”
Yes, just look at the thousands of union miners, construction workers, and manufacturer workers that have lost their jobs due to Obama government policies favoring Green business donators.
In reality, the union members ARE “just people”,
and a lot of them, given the choice, wouldn’t be supporting the union they’re forced to join in order to have a job.
It’s the thug leadership that needs to be despised and turned into a “common enemy”.
THAT’s the proper strategy.
Reagan won over union members largely on social and economic issues.
Its also important to note that some 40% of union members polled in Michigan, supported RTW. Some stated that it wasn’t because they wanted to leave their union, only that people needed to have a choice and the unions need the competition because they aren’t responsive to their members.
