800,000 H-1B visas??? I don't think so. I may not like Rubio but his bill doesn't triple that number. Where are you getting your numbers from?
Numbers usa says Rubio sponsored a bill that would increase h1b visas 100,000 a year.
I'd believe Roy Beck about immigration before any politician
I don't a care who the candidate is because chance are we are in for another 4-8 years of gridlock. I'm voting for the party who will most likely appoint a reasonable person the the Supreme Court. Enough of people who cannot remember that their wife made $600000 from one special interest group.
The same Phyllis Schlafly that supported the one Republican candidate who has supported partial birth abortion, progressive taxation, socialized medicine (and he still does), and helped elect ilk like Hillary Clinton, Harry Reid, and Nancy Pelosi?

I'll take this endorsement with a grain of salt.
If we don't check immigration, demographic changes will only lead to more Clintons, Reids, and Pelosis elected.
Once again I will say it between the Dems and Reps is this the best that America has?
SO who do we vote for?
Hillary: She is a walking scandal and her term would just be another 4 years of Obama leading us down a dangerous path.
Bernie: He would make a good president... of Sweden but this is the USA and we don't need to increase the welfare state which would happen under his socialist ideals.
Cruz: He is an odd fellow who is just a bit too preachy and whiny to be a President.
Trump: He is the opposite of Cruz but do we need a egomaniac loose cannon in the office?
Rubio: a tow the line Senator that thinks it would be OK to give amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. Just thinking that the American economy can absorb that many people is crazy.
JEB! We don't need another Bush.
I have next to zero confidence in any of Ithese Bozos. This has to be the craziest election season ever.
I voted Libertarian party. I was a Rand Paul fan. Well, I still am, but since he is out and I don't want to waste my vote, I am still undecided.
I might vote for Libertarian party again. Since I am in california, it is going to be deep blue anyway.
Trump has to win. The issue of immigration is just far too important during this election. If voters don't get it right, the consequences of amnesty will be irreversible. Every other issue is irrelevant unless immigration is addressed. It impacts everything.
Look, I'm extremely anti immigration too. I watched it all go down, pre-beginning to end. Lots of gray area, I'm not pinning this all on Rubio. Remember the mood at the time, the players, the backstabbers and so on. Nope, just not going to do it. Phyllis Schlafly is a moron anyway. I can find fault with Rubio, but not so much with this.

Have you heard that Bloomberg is considering getting into the race on a 3rd party ticket? He says he's alarmed at the sort of 3 Stooges quality of the candidates, with Hillary being the exception, so if The Bern wins the Dem nomination, he'll jump into the race. He doesn't feel he could beat Hillary, but he feels he has a good chance against the other clowns.
I don't know enough about him, though. What do you all think?

I'm not sure what Bloomberg has to offer. Does he think he has a chance just because Trump is a billionaire businessman and he's a billionaire businessman too? Being an NYC mayor didn't help Giuliani in his bid for the White House. The ban on big sodas and stop-and-frisk were both terrible policies...I don't know what else people outside of New York would know Bloomberg for.

Giuliani walking with his mistress down Broadway in the St. Pat's parade did it for me. His wife and kids were still in Gracie Mansion. Also, NCY paid for her protection while he was still married.
You mean like the kind that Trump hires? Trump would be one of those alleged donors if he weren't running. Of the approximately 800,000 of them issued in the US, Trump's company currently is employing 1,100 of them.
800,000 H-1B visas??? I don't think so. I may not like Rubio but his bill doesn't triple that number. Where are you getting your numbers from?
You are right, I used the wrong stat. It is 65,000 with a percentage of those with master degrees and above exempted. You do realize though that makes the 1,100 Trump hires a higher percentage, don't you?
