An Open Letter From Technology Sector Leaders On Donald Trump’s Candidacy For President

An Open Letter From Technology Sector Leaders On Donald Trump’s Candidacy For President

"We are inventors, entrepreneurs, engineers, investors, researchers, and business leaders working in the technology sector. We are proud that American innovation is the envy of the world, a source of widely-shared prosperity, and a hallmark of our global leadership.

We believe in an inclusive country that fosters opportunity, creativity and a level playing field. Donald Trump does not. He campaigns on anger, bigotry, fear of new ideas and new people, and a fundamental belief that America is weak and in decline. "

...want more H1B visas. But neither party's base does. Both want the TPP. Not the bases. The alarming disconnect from us, the lowly hoi polloi, is why so many are considering voting for a con artist rather than another corporate shill. It's that bad out here in fly-over country.
