Bernie Sanders: The Vox conversation - Vox
Sanders is a known far left socialist and fibber

open boarders is a far left (socialist) agenda

Quote:
"The aim of socialism is not only to abolish the present division of mankind into smaller states and all-national isolation, not only to bring the nations closer to each other, but also to merge them." lennin ..
.
read "The Grand Chessboard" by Brzezinski:
Quote:
"In order to bring about a North American Union (NAU), the public first has to be conditioned to think of themselves as North Americans. ... "Zbigniew Brzezinski has been a CSIS counselor, and at Mikhail Gorbachev's first State of the World Forum in 1995, Brzezinski revealed:


"We cannot leap into
Quote:
world government
through one quick step.... The precondition for eventual and genuine
Quote:
globalization is progressive regionalization
because by that we move toward larger, more stable, more cooperative units."


"...in Brzezinski's BETWEEN TWO AGES (1970), he praised Marxism, and he claimed that
Quote:
"the nation-state is gradually yielding its sovereignty."
One aspect of American sovereignty that is being yielded is ownership of American companies by Americans. In the first 9 months of 2007, 69 companies in New England alone have been sold to foreign buyers. Nationally, the French company Alcatel bought Lucent Technologies in the U.S. in2006, and in September 2007 announced it will be cutting thousands of jobs. ..."

"This is a form of Socialism known as fascism, and it will be the type of world government the power elite plans ultimately to bring about and control. In this government, the power elite will control politicians who will become government leaders who will promulgate laws, rules and regulations favorable to certain transnational corporations"

Fine, open the borders. But end all welfare programs because that will cripple us.

I've said it dozens of times here --- the elderly have NO PLACE in elected offices. You have no way of knowing when the elderly have lost their grasp on reality.

Currently, the Democrats are featuring three old white people. The Democrats -- the party of inclusion, diversity, and the youth --- have three meaningful candidates, one of whom is not running.

"Weekend At" Bernie Sanders --- turns 75 before the 2016 election. Old, rich, white, and male.
Hillary "Hill-Billyâ„¢" Clinton --- turns 69 before the 2016 election. Old, rich, white and possibly male.
Elizabeth Warrent -- turns 67 before November 2016. Old, rich, Native American(?) female.

The wild card who isn't mentioned? Joe Biden, who will be 74 in Nov. 2016. Old, rich, white, male.


Age limits and term limits --- two things we need to implement to clean up the toilet we call Washington, D.C.

Numbers USA gives Sanders a "D" on immigration issues.

Sanders talks a good game about putting Americans first, but his voting record says otherwise.

LOL, immigration follows prosperity, not the other way around.

BTW, I'm all for increasing the number of work visas if we truly do not have enough workers; however, when discussing unskilled labor, we have mounds of that.

Numbers USA is an openly partisan Republican group that seeks to elect Republicans. Like what the NRA has become. They'd rather elect Republicans who are on the opposite side of their issues than Dems or independents who have their views.

I'm somewhere in between with pretty strong liberal leanings.

And no. We should whip any of them who are adults, and THEN deport them over the border.

The far left wants open borders....as does some flavors of the far right. But really its all about the corporations.
