"As the nation prepares to ring in the New Year, President Barack Obama is preparing a colossal new executive action that could print-up work permits for a huge number of foreign white-collar graduates every year, above and beyond the levels set by Congress. This executive action, which directly bypasses Congressional lawmakers, is likely to reverberate across the presidential race, as GOP voters look to choose a nominee they believe will most effectively roll back the President’s still-expanding agenda. And it will certainly raise new security concerns as it covers categories of immigration utilized by migrants from the Middle East and nearby regions. President Barack Obama’s Department of Homeland Security plans to publish the proposed rule tomorrow, the last day of 2015."
Let's see how college students and their parents react to this at the voting booth. Not that it matters that it bypasses Congress since those dopes are just as bad as he is. Now that white collar workers will be impacted, let's see if they wake the bleep up.
There is always Sanders. Obama and the Dems are hardly alone in wanting to extend the programs that allow highly skilled foreigners to displace American workers at lower wages. Rubio is a big fan as are most of the Republican candidates. This is one area where the money has been spread on both sides of the aisle.
I am starting to look at Sanders more favorably with each passing day. He has an agenda that is good for middle America and is not a flaming jerk like Trump.
Problem is, who's going to oppose it? The GOP is a wholly owned subsidiary of corporate America. So I guess that leaves Trump, but most college grads will gladly tolerate increased immigration if it means keeping Trump out of the White House.

But Obama is actually doing it. That's the difference.

No, they were a "can't see it from my house" group of people when it came to immigration. As long as immigration increase numbers were about those poor people flooding over the border, they were good with it. Let me know how they react when they are training their replacements at work.

Yes, but the premise of your post is that it would hurt Dems (lose the election). When all but one or two candidates would do the same or worse like the Hatch proposal in the Gang of Eight bill.... There are likely more Dems against H1B expansion than GOP. Working Americans are under assault from the rich and influential. They own more than Obama.

Has Sanders said anything about illegals being deported and not legalized? Or anything about stopping the muslim refugee resettlement program? If a Democrat candidate's' only platform was economic socialism and was pledging to bring back immigration policy pre-'65, then as a conservative I'd consider voting for them. Nothing else matters until we stop the policy of flooding America with non-westerners.
All I see Democrats supporting is the same thing Obama supports-flooding America with nonwesterners and squeezing Americans particularly whites out of their own country. Hilliary too, an open borders, free trade wall street owned globalist. Today's Democrats make liberal/socialist FDR look like a right wing Nationalist.

Well, I'm good with Rubio going down, too, if you are.

But it's only been conservatives and GOP politicians fighting and winning in court against Obama's immigration executive orders abusing his powers and going over congress. The Dems either defend everything Obama does and call everyone who disagrees 'racist' or stay silent.
