Unfortunately his support of the destructive Obama TPP... evidences a major unreliable position on the U.S. Constitution. Further elimination of the Middle Class is Obama’s scheme...

No. Cruz supported fast-track authority to negotiate the trade deal that turned into the TPP — something lawmakers of both parties have done as a matter of course for trade deals for decades. He opposes the result, which is not actually a trade deal, but an attempt to put in place by treaty a whole package of left-wing and crony-capitalist priorities that would have the chance of a proverbial snowball in hell of passing the House.

One, he has not supported TPP, he supported TPA which is the fast track authority to negotiate a treaty granted to the President. The TPP is the result of that round of negotiations. The Trans Pacific-Partnership is a bad deal, one that Cruz has said that he opposes. Also the TPP has not been voted on to my knowledge. If you are going to be for the free-market, then you must be for the negotiation. You can be pro Negotiation, and against The deal which springs forth from the negotiation. Many people especially so called journalists have confused TPP, with TPA. Some with no malicious intent, others with the intent of confusing the uneducated.
