Great job Trump Team Virginia.  Virginia is the second hardest state to qualify for ballot placement (hardest is Illinois).  While the Trump team needed 5,000 signatures, plus 200 per congressional district (11), team Trump submitted 15,000 signatures which were verified and validated !!

Donald Trump is now the first, and so far only, candidate to reach these challenging VA qualifications.  The remaining campaigns have less than a month remaining to qualify. The primary date is scheduled for March 1st.

RVA PRESS RELEASE –  The Republican Party of Virginia (RPV) is pleased to announce that Donald Trump is the first Republican candidate to submit signatures for “pre-check” review by the RPV and are ready for submission to the State Board of Elections, well ahead of the December 10, 2015 deadline.

RPV reviewed the signatures on the petitions submitted and the Trump Campaign passed the pre-check process indicating there are sufficient signatures to meet the 5,000 statewide and 200 per Congressional District requirements of Virginia law. (more…)

The currently considered TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership) trade deal has the potential to be the fulcrum under every plank in the 2016 presidential election. Many people view immigration as the #1 concern underlying further economic issues – however, few people recognize that immigration is actually part of the TPP construct.

So lets take this conversation back to where it belongs, at the point where massive money intersects with consequential presidential politics.

Globalists, via Wall Street international financiers, are determined to get TPP passed into law.  Only a few of the GOP candidates stand in the way; and off those few only one serious candidate is a risk to their objectives.   Candidate Donald Trump is the primary roadblock to the current globalist goals…. And as such, they support Marco Rubio. (more…)

Donald Trump speaks in New Hampshire on the day following the debate:

Ted Cruz isn’t the only presidential candidate trying to hide his support of the globalist trade deal known as TPP.   Marco Rubio is trying a similar approach at avoidance.

It would appear that both Rubio and Cruz have recognized that not only is TPP unpopular, but their support for TPP has the potential to expose their hidden alignments with Wall Street globalists. 

This election will be won/lost around this issue – watch.

( Via Breitbart ) Marco Rubio declared the Trans-Pacific Partnership to be one of three essential “pillars” of a Rubio Presidency—is now taking issue with a Wall Street Journal news report that lists Rubio as supporting the unpopular Obamatrade pact he voted to fast-track.

The Wall Street Journal article observed that: “Still backing the trade legislation are the party’s establishment wing candidates: Sen. Marco Rubio and former Gov. Jeb Bush of Florida and Govs. John Kasich of Ohio and Chris Christie of New Jersey.”

Indeed, it was in the very pages of the Wall Street Journal that on April 29th Rubio wrote: “We must rebuild our own military capabilities, conclude and pass TPP, and renew our support for freedom and the rule of law in Asia.” (more…)

Red Circled Candidates All Support Trans-Pacific Trade Agreement (TPP)

HR2146 (TPA “Trade Promotion Authority” or “Fast Track”):  This House Bill #2146 originating April 30th ’15, became the vehicle for passage of Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) for the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal.

HR2146 was originally introduced in the House of Representatives as a bill to address issues with retirement funds of federal law enforcement officers and firefighters.

In April of 2015 Senator Ted Cruz and House Ways and Means Chairman, Representative Paul Ryan, supported TPA being added to HR2146.  Their support was most notable when they posted the following Op-Ed which appeared in the Wall Street Journal on April 22nd: (more…)

Notice the emphasis in the first sentence.  The testimonial for candidate support from the campaign manager Berry Bennett is to quote social media metrics: “Facebook friends, twitter mentions and google searches” – something very odd feeling about that.

If Ben Carson’s actual Facebook following are “real people” (4.7 million according to his Facebook page) and not purchased “likes”, then why does he not show up with greater support in the post debate polls?

Drudge shows Carson in 5th place with 8,000 votes (less than 5%) in their post debate polling.   The Time Poll has less than 4% support for Carson; and around 9% at The Blaze.

45 minutes prior to the end of the Republican debate the owner of Fox Broadcasting and Wall Street Journal, Rupert Murdoch, tweeted this out:

It would appear the Wall Street goal to use Marco Rubio as a vessel toward a GOPe nominee delivering a Clinton/Bush ticket is clearly underway.

By Menagerie –  It seems to me that we have an almost unheard of opportunity here. A choice between a builder, a creator, a great doer, a man who actually has a long record of achievements which show his determination, his ability to do things and get others to do things, in other words, some big results, and on the other side, politicians.

He hasn’t run a country, they say. Well, what country, state, or even town have they run successfully?

As near as I can tell, politicians get paid very well to talk, and results are never worried about, nor are they held accountable for them. (more…)
