BERNIE SANDERS: ‘NO QUESTION IN MY MIND’ IMMIGRATION HURTS JOBS
Breitbart ^ | July 31 2015 | Breitbart

Posted on 08/01/2015 11:21:35 AM PDT by WilliamIII

During a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce event, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT)16% explained that mass immigration would hurt wages in America.

“Should we have a completely open border so that anyone can come in the United States of America?” Sanders replied, after MSNBC’s Alex Seitz-Wald asked the Senator about his position. “If that were to happen, which I strongly disagree with, there is no question in my mind that that would substantially lower wages in this country.”

Sanders reminded the audience immigration affects the unemployment rate for Hispanic and African-American youth.

I know nothing about him. The fact he’s a self-proclaimed socialist is enough to automatically disqualify him.

Obama said he wanted to reduce the deficit.

On Reddit the libs are crowing this is the end of Sanders, it’s all Hillary now, and their polls say she’ll roll over the GOP and Trump like a tank.

Yuh huh.

Same here. A Socialist liberal who “gets it”? What is this world coming too? He needs to go have a “summit” with Obonzo.

Sander's is a liar. Period. Check the links. The only time he's ever voted against a measure favorable to illegals is when it's conflicted with Big Labor.

He wants the worst of all possible worlds [and that's the way he's voted.]

Those are his votes over the last two decades.

His platform is the worst of both worlds: No restriction on illegals who bring no benefit to the country and they don't have to work once they arrive.

Ok, Grace, you got me at Kipling. I guess I was temporarily bumfuzzled by the seemingly sensible statement coming from so far to the left.

(I still don’t dislike him quite as much as I do HRC).

He doesn't "get it." If you won't go to Numbers USA and READ how he's actually voted over the last two decades, I've summarized his votes for you in my previous post; all backed up by the Congressional Record. He's not against bringing illegals into the country. He's not against letting them stay. He's only against giving them jobs.

Well, at least he admits open borders hurts American Citizens.

That’s one bit of information Bush could come to grips with.

Should be fun watching all the pundits on MSNBC and NBC refer to Bernie as a racist... Oh wait, forgot the double standard. He’ll get a pass.

Hillary is #2 on my sh!t list, Right after Obama and above John F Kerry who is at number #4 or #5.

Bernie is about #90 on my Sh!t list.

We lived under socialism for four years, and enough voters wanted four more...

Que the entire leftist media to decry him as a racist.

Oh wait, he’s a liberal.

Perhaps the resident Democratic Socialist can explain supply and demand to the low information voter. It sounds like he gets it, but I’ve been wrong before.

I think the only way to cure people’s love of socialism is to actually have them live under it for a few years.

So... did you win any of the games of nine-pins you played with Hendrick Hudson's crew in the Catskills? Or did you just enjoy their beverages?
