Dear Tech Guys:

Bad for your industry does not equate to bad for America.

Sincerely,
Ben

Legal immigrants and illegal immigrants add economic and cultural value to this country in all sectors, not just technology.

LIES!

I don’t think you’ve been watching Scott Walker for very long.

He’s not stupid.

Those that have underestimated him in the past, don’t any more.

“I thought tech people could do logic.”

They’re more arrested development than logic.

But the politics of not demonizing legal immigrants while running for POTUS are pretty obvious.

Aaaaaand, stop! What we're discussing here is NOT legal immigration. Scott Walker has done what no one on the right can do: he's changing the conversation to the TRUTH! He's not allowing the media to write the narrative that the current "immigration" fight is about legal immigration.

No one is arguing against legal immigration!

This is about granting citizenship to millions of people who came across our southern border without going through the proper channels. This is NOT about legal immigration.

I repeat:

No one is arguing against legal immigration!

Nana is pro-immigration...

I’m against illegal aliens just waltzing into the country...

these guys don’t seem to know what exactly immigration really is suppose to be...or don’t care to know..

Immigration means someone immigrated..

that’s not what an illegal alien does...

We need to curtail legal immigration too.

Reagan Biographer Firm Signs on for Communications, Strategy for Scott Walker Super PAC

"As he’s become the 2016 GOP presidential campaign’s clear frontrunner—before even announcing a candidacy—Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s 2016 team just made a huge pickup, Breitbart News has learned exclusively.

Shirley & Banister Public Affairs will be handling strategic communications for Walker’s Super PAC, the Unintimidated PAC, and providing historical context that will prove crucial for the campaign. Since the firm’s two partners—Craig Shirley and Diana Banister—are extraordinarily connected among major players in the conservative movement, they’ll be filling a key gap in Walker’s growing team of influential staffers.

“One of the hallmarks of SBPA is we only work with people with whom we agree and we not only agree with Governor Walker, we admire him,” Shirley said in an emailed statement to Breitbart News. “He is a conservative, he is honest, ethical, tough and principled. We are proud of our new association with Governor Walker.”

The firm has been active in the conservative movement since 1984, helped Reagan’s re-election, has represented groups like the National Rifle Association, Tea Party Patriots, the Club For Growth, and more. Instead of focusing on mainstream media efforts, Shirley & Banister focuses much of its resources on new media like conservative online media, talk radio and other grassroots-centered materials–yet another sign that Walker doesn’t care about the Washington establishment way of doing things.

It’s worth noting that communicating in the new media world is much different than working with dinosaur-era old media, and it takes a certain kind of savvy to do it. Many other campaigns are working on doing the same thing, trying to bridge gaps into the conservative movement and media......"

Just as Stalin once asked how many divisions would the Pope bring to the battle, how many votes will the tech sector moguls, the ones who want and need an open ended immigration system, bring to an election? The elections in 1968 and 1980 show what can happen when a candidate taps into simmering unvented middle class rage. Walker’s pushing a hot button everybody else has been afraid to press.

Curtail, fine. The idea of shutting down immigration altogether is incredibly stupid.

The best test for a candidate will do in the future is what they did in the past.

Walker has proven success fighting anti-American liberals and graft ridden unions, to the great benefit of his State.

Cruz has proven success at being right on the important issues to America and has against the odds regularly kicked the liberal GOPe’s ass like DoWorst.

Both Cruz and Walker are smart, both are right for America.

We need to stop or slow ALL immigration. We are being ethnically cleansed.

..What is amazing is that Walker would step out on the national stage to run for president without even making an effort to learn what the likely hot-button issues would be, and how to frame his “talking points” to avoid the media gotchas for each one.<<

When Walker has both the Right and the Left protesting simultaneously, he’s found a huge target and has dropped a bombshell directly on it.

All the screaming you’re hearing now is of the “Shoot first, ask questions later” variety as people scramble to reorganize their defenses. Once they start asking the most relevant question, which will be “How come so many of our own voters agree with Walker on this?” they’ll realize there’s no defense available. Their position has been demolished.

I particularly like the irony of the Left having to defend illegal and legal immigration at the same time they claim to be solid defenders of the American worker. Walker has made that hypocrisy clear with his stance.

I am counting the many tens of thousands of “refugees” as “legal” immigrants

No-FReepin'-brainer. Illegal immigration is a win-win for Repubs. What the hey are the GOPe afraid of?

3rd from last paragraph in their rant, is this quote from Scott Walker which they’re “working” from - go figure.:

>>>“In terms of legal immigration, how we need to approach that going forward is saying – the next president and the next Congress need to make decisions about a legal immigration system that’s based on, first and foremost, on protecting American workers and American wages… It is a fundamentally lost issue by many in elected positions today – what is this doing for American workers looking for jobs, what is this doing to wages, and we need to have that be at the forefront of our discussion going forward.”<<<

“Like most technology people, The Tech Guys are pro-immigration.”

Leftists debating with straw men again, demonizing those who disagree with them. Who in America, Left or Right, “technology people” or not, is anti-immigration?
