So, you think the Democrats are trying to legalize new voters? You have to be a citizen to vote and under the proposals most seriously considered, with support from some GOP also, it will take 13-15 years before an illegal immigrant who is "legalized" to get the right to vote. Doesn't sound like a very good strategy if the intent was to get illegals to vote.

It makes even less sense when the reality is there are over 9 million Legal Permanent Residents (with 30% of them specifically Mexican Nationals, and the total number is increasing each year) that are eligible to naturalize, but have not. If some theory that Democrats wanted potential voters, they would be having naturalization clinics and President Obama would be issuing Executive Orders to negate the N-400 fees. Once naturalized, they could vote in the next election.
“We continued to hear troubling reports of actions -- being taken by school districts around the country -- that have a chilling effect on student enrollment, raising barriers for undocumented children and children from immigrant families to receives the public education to which they are entitled,†Holder said.
I thought illegal aliens ain't allowed in the US tho Holder and his boys have me scratching my head.
Eric Holder is a national disgrace, his many FAILURES and ineptness at his job would have gotten him terminated in the public sector.
Fast and Furious, his total disregard for prosecuting the Black Panthers for voter intimidation and his countless other lies and blame shifting must be what Obama expects for his administration.
Which was ruled upon by our highest court. We are a nation of laws.
Yeah, well some don't like our immigration laws either. I'm entitled to my opinion on educating illegal aliens in our country just as well. The difference is that I am advocating for change that would have a positive affect on our own citizens while others advocate for things that would have a negative impact on our own citizens in favor of illegal foreigners. See the difference?
