Bernie Sanders, Presidential Candidate and H-1B Skeptic

Presto Vivace writes: The H-1B visa issue rarely surfaces during presidential races, and that's what makes the entrance by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) into the 2016 presidential race so interesting. ... ...Sanders is very skeptical of the H-1B program, and has lambasted tech firms for hiring visa workers at the same time they're cutting staff. He's especially critical of the visa's use in offshore outsourcing.

    Does Sanders have any chance to become president? Bush and Clinton... been there, done that, both long term disasters.

    At least Clinton left a balanced budget, Bush doubled the national debt.
