With all the BS talk about democrats wanting immigration reform
to get new voters who will vote democratic, one thing seem to
be left out.
I had forgotten, it is the states that decide who gets to vote.
When it comes to race, age and sex, it's in the constitution.
Other than that, I do believe it is the states who decide who gets tovote.
So, the republican states could let favorable groups vote, even
though they aren't citizens.
And block those who are.
Since all federal offices are decided by state population, not by actually by popular vote, that would be interesting.
Hello Bob,
With all the BS talk about democrats wanting immigration reform
to get new voters who will vote democratic, one thing seem to
be left out.
Wazzat?
I had forgotten, it is the states that decide who gets to vote.
You forget about the Voting Rights Act, which mandates that
Southern states need to get approval from the DOJ in matters
concerning federal elections.
When it comes to race, age and sex, it's in the constitution.
Southern states still need to get approval from the DOJ,
irregardless of what the US Constitution says or does not
say.
Other than that, I do believe it is the states who decide who gets tovote.
The DOJ decides what Southern states can get away with,
allowing all other states to do whatever the hell they want.
So, the republican states could let favorable groups vote, even
though they aren't citizens.
Republicans want to end the Voting Rights Act, thus
returning fairness to every state in the USA. Democrats
have to come to the realization that George Wallace is
dead, as well as Bull Connor and Lester Maddox.
And block those who are.
Governor Rick Perry says he wants to become President of
Texas. Many Republicans want to grant him that wish. But
Democrats are adamantly opposed. And nobody can imagine
why, as no Republican could ever hope to win the White
House without Texas.
I guess it must be Democrats' sense of fair play.
Especially given the fact that Democrat Barack Obama won
the state of Florida twice in a row, thanks to all them
Cubans in Miami.
Since all federal offices are decided by state population,
not by actually by popular vote, that would be interesting.
You have it all wrong -
Gerald R. Ford was appointed, not elected.
George W. Bush was appointed, not elected.
Need more be said?
