After being criticized for staying quiet about immigration, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) vowed on Friday that if elected president, he would push for immigration reform and go even further than President Barack Obama in expanding deportation relief. "Despite the central role that undocumented workers play in our economy and in our daily lives, these workers are too often reviled by many for political gain and shunted into the shadows," Sanders, who is running for the Democratic presidential nomination, said in Las Vegas at the National Association of Latino Elected Officials conference. "Let me be very clear as to where I stand," he continued. "It is time for this disgraceful situation to end." Immigration hasn't been one of Sanders' central issues, and he hasn't discussed it much on the campaign trail. Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.), one of the leaders on immigration reform in the House, said earlier this month that he doesn't know if Sanders "likes immigrants, because he doesn't seem to talk about immigrants." "I hope he likes immigrants," Gutierrez said at the time. "I haven’t heard him say anything. He’s been kind of quiet and silent." At the NALEO conference, Sanders noted that he supported the comprehensive immigration reform bill that passed the Senate in 2013, as well as the never-passed Dream Act to provide legal status to undocumented young people who came to the U.S. as children. Sanders said that as president, if Congress did not pass immigration reform, he would use executive action to give deportation relief to the parents of U.S. citizens, legal permanent residents and so-called Dreamers, the would- be beneficiaries of the Dream Act. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, two of Sanders' rivals for the Democratic nomination, have also promised to push for immigration reform and expand deportation relief if necessary. Obama announced plans last November to allow some parents of U.S. citizens and legal permanent residents to work legally on a temporary basis, but he excluded the parents of Dreamers, saying that such a move was beyond his authority. The relief program is currently blocked in the courts. Sanders has previously criticized certain aspects of immigration reform efforts -- particularly guest worker programs that he said could cost Americans their jobs and lead to lower wages. He spoke out against proposals for guest worker programs on Friday, too, but focused more on the exploitation of immigrants who "have been routinely cheated out of wages, held virtually captive by employers who have seized their documents, forced to live in unspeakably inhumane conditions and denied medical benefits for on-the-job injuries." Sanders said another of his priorities is to ensure that workers are not exploited by employers who think their undocumented status will prevent them from speaking out. He recalled a visit to Immokalee, Florida, in 2008, where he said he saw workers in tomato fields "being paid starvation wages, living in severely substandard housing and subjected to abusive labor practices." "The injustice in the lives of the workers was overwhelming," he said. "In fact, the situation was so bad that on the day I visited, two men were indicted for human slavery. Slavery, in the 21st century, in the United States of America."

Dammit Pete you're supporting a fucking traitor. Spit!
Once again you have your panties all in a wad over nothing. I don't support Sanders,and he is not going to be the Dim nominee any more than Trump is going to be the alleged Republican nominee. I merely said that Sanders is more conservative than any of the alleged Republican favorites,and that is true. He is opposed to bankers running the country and he wants to bring American jobs back to America. Neither of which is supported by ANY of the alleged Republican candidates. Don't let reality interrupt your fantasies,though. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
Sounds like Lady Lindsey and JEB Bush,doesn't he? Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
sorry Bernie . A socialist welfare state and open borders don't mix.
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
You have cracked. Even the libtards give Sanders the highest libtard ratings. You were better off peddling the ... "The lessor of two evils" bullshit than this closet liberal sales angle. I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح
One sentence two lies. First lie, Berniee is more conservative then anybody in the race. Second lie you said you were going to vote for him. Y

HUH?? These are "ILLEGAL INVADERS" who SHOULD be "hiding in the shadows" -- they're criminals. More than that, the "central role" they play in our economy AND in our "daily lives" is in CRATERING IT. Our quality of life is precariously DANGEROUS. Comrade Sander's has dropped waaaaay to much acid during the 60s.
He fits the profile of the radical leftist. Father emigrated to America from Poland, we had a lot of Jewish refugees come here from Poland in the early 1920's. They were refugees as a result of the Polish-Soviet, when the Soviets would overrun a Polish town they found a lot of collaborators among the local Jewish population, and it was from their ranks that the local commissars would be broken. When Poland took back territory the local population would settle scores, not unlike France in 1944/45. In that time the Soviet Union was predominantly run by Jewish folks. This was before Stalin took over, he was very anti-Semitic and his purges targeted Jews. In fact just before he died he was planning to kill large numbers of Jews. I suspect that Bernie's father made it over here in the early 1920's, that is when a lot of leftist radicals made it over. A big factor in the 1924 immigration factor was trying to stem the flow of these radicals into America. When the hippies arose in the 1960's it was from such stock. They were not rebels against their family values, communism was one the family values, along with hostility to Western culture. Allowing these people in as refugees was like allowing communist refugees into America from El Salvador. They should have gone as refugees into the Soviet Union. At that time it had a government of similar people. Very hostile to Christ. The slogan says "Ban religious holidays!" This is the type of government the Russians had under these folks. Today these imported Bernie Sanders Marxists are the cultural overlords of America, with similar targets. Pulling down crosses and statues of our history, just like ISIS destroying the artifacts of what went before, or a dog covering another dog's piss with his own.

He and they have been termites, eroding American values ever since. Why they've bled America dry is...because they *could*, and because their fellow world-elites also share the same subversive, anti-Christ values. The slogan says "Ban religious holidays!" This is the type of government the Russians had under these folks. Today these imported Bernie Sanders Marxists are the cultural overlords of America, with similar targets. Pulling down crosses and statues of our history, just like ISIS destroying the artifacts of what went before, or a dog covering another dog's piss with his own. +1000. America is now chock-full of these Marxist-Capitalist hypocrites, anti-Christs, and haters of God. America's divisions are many, but THE one trait that is forcing our "divorce" is "Believers" vs. "Haters-of Believers."
I understand your limited intellect prevents you from seeing ANYTHING positive about people you see as the "enemy",while your blind biases prevent you from accepting the fact you have been and are still being played for a fool by the people with the PC (for YOU) "R" label behind their names. Basically,the only reason I'm still hanging around here is for the fun of seeing you spit and sputter and twist in the wind as you try to post justification for ending up voting for JEB or Lady Lindsey. We all know you are going to end up doing this,even you. You just can't bring yourself to admit it. Second lie you said you were going to vote for him. I said I MIGHT vote for him. Half in jest,and half to see your head explode. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
Of course they do. Sanders is running interference for Bubbette! His job is to pull in conservative support via his "American Jobs!" speeches while also pulling in the traditional Dim voters with his socialism tag. Bubbette! gets to play the role of "wise old statescritter that has the experience to be moderate" so she can maybe slip in under the wire. Much like Trump is a bomb-thrower for the RNC.

HUH?? On this issue he is in perfect agreement with the RNC,including the alleged Republican front runners. Someone want to splain to me how Sanders is evil in the eyes of Republcans when he says that,while JEB and Lady Lindsey mostly get a pass for saying the same things?

No he's still not. And anyway, you said: "I merely said that Sanders is more conservative than any of the alleged Republican favorites" Someone want to splain to me how Sanders is evil in the eyes of Republcans when he says that,while JEB and Lady Lindsey mostly get a pass for saying the same things? Perhaps the Media and RNC can better explain it to you.
