Honestly, does any of us think the present administration or any administration would select a blind candidate? Have blind students ever been invited to participate in a program like this? I don't personally thing these guys can get passed the "blind people are helpless" bit in order to give someone a job. What are others experiences? I'm genuinely curious and also hoping my suspicians are wrong!
