Dear Senator Sanders - I am a BIG fan. I've listened to and agreed with your speeches and interviews for many years. You always speak passionately about what we should have as citizens of the richest country on earth. BUT I HAVE ONE POINT OF POSSIBLE DISAGREEMENT (excuse the all caps). I believe that in order for Democrats to beat Republicans and toss Donald Trump to the curb we must have a workable plan for IMMIGRATION... and that is something I don't hear from Democrats. Healthcare and Education are HUGE magnets for underprivileged people. Yes - we're the richest nation on earth. But our borders would be overwhelmed and so would our healthcare and educational systems. We must limit the number of people coming in to America. If Dems started talking about this issue it would interest those who voted MAGA. Medicare for all is a very popular concept - until people start to "believe" that undocumented immigrants will be filling the waiting rooms at their local doctor's office and blocking access for American citizens. Dems have to PROVE that they are serious about limiting access to Medicare for All. Here comes the crazy part - I propose that Dems figure out a way to support the "Wall" on the southern border. Whether concrete or human - we need to CONTROL the flow of people coming into the country to live and work. In addition to that - EVERY person living in America must be DOCUMENTED and new people must have a path to citizenship. It's agreed that the status

Very clean, front desk staff was friendly. Only one elevator in tower meant a fairly long wait at times. Breakfast was pretty standard. Towels were somewhat stiff and scratchey, not big and soft. Bed was comfortable. There was a blackout shade but no sheer curtains.
