It's Official -- Bernie Sanders Has Overtaken Hillary Clinton In the Hearts and Minds of Democrats

18. Meanwhile main stream media distorts Bernie's position as Anti-Immigrant

Much as they did when they tried to portray him as Anti-African American. I realize anything other than politically correctness can be construed as non-support but Huffing ton Post should be ashamed. Bernie said that he did nor want immigrants taking American jobs, and everybody is up in arms as if he had said the Mexicans and others coming across our border to the south were somehow responsible for job losses. What he is actually referring to are the H-1B visas , microsoft and others use to bring in skilled workers from Asia in order to avoid paying the average wage in that profession. If you can get an Indian or a Korean with a doctorate to work at the same wage of an American why would not Apple or Microsoft bring them in under the H-1b visa program. If you do not think that these large corporations are doing this to depress the wages they pay, please buy the bridge I have for you. If you do not see that our meat packing industry and our fast food industry wants these undocumented hard workers and that their numbers do not decrease the wages paid for work performed, you know nothing about these industries. Bernie sanders is not blaming the immigrants and neither am I. Corporations and businesses have used immigrants and undocumented aliens in order to force lower wages and/or prevent union organizing ( United Farm Workers). Bernie is aware that the greedy feed upon the needy, and he knows immigrants are used when possible by greedy businesses and he also does not blame the undocumented immigrants but rather those who feed on them and create animosity between poor native born and porn immigrants. Bernie is well aware that the greedy through their political hacks use this division to manipulate the electorate and maintain their control of our government. Bernie does not blame the victim, but to deny the victim is used to create more victims is avoidance of the issue. Bernie wants the immigrants to have a path to citizenship but he cannot ignore reality and will not let some misguided push for correct speak to stifle the truth we see before our eyes and that is immigrants are used to hold wages down. That is not in any way to say, that their labors do not in total aid our country and its economy by creating more demand. But then, how much more effective demand would they create if they can come out of the shadows and demand wages a native born American would expect.
