The Communists are further reproached with desiring to abolish countries and nationality. …Try again, Bernie. Too early to utter stupid lies. (And that’s aside from the Koch Brothers being self-identified libertarians and backing a lot of left-wing positions.)
— Communist Manifesto, Chapter 2
A communist and a lunatic. That about says it all.
Wow, even a pre senility socialist gets that an open border means no USA.
Actually, if you replace “Right-Wing” with “Republican” Sanders is DEAD-ON.
Yeah, and the Republicans fought to keep slavery.
Jorge Bush and Juan McCain.
All these people are psychotic. I may become psychotic by listening to their insanity.
Provided he means it I'd vote for this commie before I'd vote for Jeb Bush.
We'd be destitute but I'd know at the end of a Sanders administration there'd still be a United States.
“I think if you take global poverty that seriously, it leads you to conclusions that in the US are considered out of political bounds. Things like sharply raising the level of immigration we permit, even up to a level of open borders.”
Do I understand this to mean that open borders is a way to ensure global poverty. If so, I agree. Open US borders will reduce the standard of living in the US to that of the poor parts of Calcutta. Open borders is a method for wage reduction and wage reduction is the policy of the Fed govt.

If Chamber of Commerce conservatives are right wing, then he’s right. I am NOT a Bernie Sanders fan, but he has been right on this one issue for a long time. He was one of the guys who voted against the Bush Amnesty bill.
PING
Well, he’s right.
Open Borders IS an anarcho-libertarian idea, specifically intended to drive wages down.
The “race to the bottom”, as it is known.
Everyone needs to recall that the Unions under Gompers wrote the 1924 Immigration Act which basically ended the so-called “Great Wave” of immigration.
They did that because it meant they could improve wages.
Sanders may be the only honest Leftist out there. The rest of the Democrats - who used to be utterly opposed to mass immigration - have all drunk the Kool Aid and babble about letting the flood in.
In other words, they have abandoned the American working class.
Bernie is just sticking to the traditional line.
The reason the rest of the Rats have gone over is simple: the immigrants now are non-whites. And if there’s one thing the Rat party is desperate to do, it’s add as many non-whites to the population of the U.S. that it can. They live to replace the hated Evil White People with Saintly Minorities...who won’t be minorities much longer.
But until that happens, the gig will be this: the rich get REALLY rich, and the rest....fall further behind as more and more of the desperate show up.
Actually if this guy were elected President. He is one that the GOPE could not work with, “to get things done†since he would go right after their money. That would teach them good. If he rally believes this about open borders then at least this country would be safe for 4 years as it would not be with Jeb. I think I would prefer him to any other Dem and Jeb too. But, if you ask me he would likely be defeated so that is another reason I hope he wins the Dem nomination. Just think about all of those lib gentrys living in these expensive urban digs! If they had someone serious about redistributing their money that just might change their opinion of a lot of things. Go Bernie.
Is Bernie trying to Trump Hilllary? LOL
It may be that he likes the idea of a wall...to keep us in. (Commies are like that)
Shiite!
I could vote for this lunatic....
I’ll vote for Bernie over Jeb.
He is a Democratic Socialist, I imagine like something out of Sweden or the Netherlands, not technically a Communist, though he may secretly be one.
It’s possible he understands that open borders = overload of your welfare state, which is something I believe the people in the UK even understand, as they make it very hard to immigrate there.
“Bernie Sanders admits to being Right Wing” lol
