Right- that’s why they have to be trained by the Americans. I bet Rubio can say ‘tool’ in both Spanish and Hindi.
Why is this a surprise?
Marco Rubio (R-Latin America) is just representing his peeps.
Sorry, but Rubio is correct. Go to any university or college and visit the different departments. The math, science, and computer science departments will be half filled with foreign student. American student can be found in great numbers in the history, literature, social science, and the African-american studies departments. American students don’t want to do the hard work that it takes to get a technical degree. And that is the truth.
In my experience there’s nothing special and wonderful about graduating in Bangalore. If you could get something you ain’t got then you could argue for it, but I see the same hero-to-dumbass range you can get from any bunch of grads anywhere, so what’s the point of going across the globe for them?
More qualified in having an ability to accept (de facto) indentured servitude?
These days, it’s closer to just having the European model of making everyone temporary, whether they like it or not.
I wonder which Marco origin story they are using in the ad, the one about his parents struggling to escape Castro’s clutches or the truth.
Here is the right answer:

There’s a campaign add for Trump.
I work with some top engineers, and have hired plenty over the years. Rubio is correct. Our schools are graduating morons. Senior managers older than 40 or so will tell you the same thing. It’s common knowledge.
They have no logic skills and can’t reason. They can’t take a real life hard problem and find a solution on their own. You have to show them microstep by microstep, and it still doesn’t help much. They don’t work hard, but text and check facebook constantly. And always have an earbud in—playing their tunes. Even during meetings.
Our schools have given us a crop of idiots with engineering degrees. They suck. It is simply true that foreign stem professionals are, in general, brighter, harder working, and much more emotionally mature. At any price.
And I am an engineer, graduated long ago. I’ve worked with some of the inventors of the MRI at Hopkins, and developed an artificial heart-pump that is keeping people alive right this second. I know what I’m talking about. Our native engineering graduates suck compared to 20 years ago.
Ronald Reagan said "be my White House Communications Director."
A lot of the Buchanan hatred originated in an article written by Joshua Muravchik, the one time chairman of the Young People's Socialist League, for Commentary Magazine.
It pretty much laid the groundwork for the Buchanan is a Nazi meme. But Commentary also happened to print some very uncomplimentary things about Ronald Reagan when he kept his promise to lay a wreath at Bitburg, so that's worth keeping in mind. I used to read Commentary and I remember seeing American conservative Christians being compared to Nazis in their letters section. So a combative Catholic like Buchanan really brought out the worst in them.
“Any chance we can replace Rubio with an H-1B? “
lol. Well done.
Owned by the foreign slave labor elite

Under no circumstances should this Devious snake Rubio ever get near the WH
ping
Go tell that utter crap to the US citizen who were humiliated and then forced to train ther foreign invader replacement for there own job ,.
You have some nerve posting the Kar Rove talking point here.
‘Just doing the work Americans went do crap !
Tell that to the Disney ex - employees and that the tip of the iceberg !
“American students don’t want to do the hard work that it takes to get a technical degree. And that is the truth.”
Yet somehow we once had enough American engineers to land a man on the Moon. And that without the army of opportunists and ingrates from a land that dumps their dead in the same river that they bathe in and drink from.
Bingo. If the foreign workers did not work much cheaper, Americans would be trained (if need be.)
Given the numbers of STEM graduates not finding work, the entire premise is a scam.
The problem is our public schools are failing. If the students are taught math and science properly in the early grades, then the work isn’t so hard later. If you don’t pick up the proper foundation early on in school, then of course it’s harder to catch up and do the more complex work that builds upon it later.
We need to solve this problem with the free market principles that school choice and vouchers unleash.

Bonnie Dunbar, director of the University of Houston STEM Center, said she continues to see a STEM labor shortage, attributable in part to poor math course offerings by inner-city high schools. Many students, she said, don’t think they need math classes. Others don’t become interested in STEM occupations until later in their academic careers, when they’re far behind on needed coursework.
“When companies get engineers from India and China, it’s because we don’t have a local supply,†Dunbar said.
Of all college graduates, only law degree recipients reported higher median earnings than those with a bachelor’s degree in engineering, according to Census estimates. Similarly, STEM grads are also employed at higher rates than their peers.
