Actually Sanders is acknowledging that open borders and immigration hurts the lower and middle class. That is something the GOP refuses to acknowledge.

The GOP could care less about the people. They are only concerned with keeping their lobbyist donors happy.

The GOP has become what the Left said it is.

Here is what Sanders said, as quoted in the article:

“You know what youth unemployment is in the United States of America today?” he said. “If you’re a white high school graduate, it’s 33 percent, Hispanic 36 percent, African American 51 percent. You think we should open the borders and bring in a lot of low-wage workers, or do you think maybe we should try to get jobs for those kids?”

Young high-school graduates just coming into the job market (whether they are white, black, or Hispanic) are not middle class. With a set of skills, hard work, and determination, they may one day become middle class.

Immigration and Jobs are the 2 biggest issues by far in 2016.

Its amazing how many people refuse to see the obvious.

The public has had enough.
