Why does anybody vote for the Democrat? Personally, based on this one issue alone, I would NEVER EVER vote for the Democrat: illegal immigration.

At least, the Republicans want the illegals so that certain businesses can have cheap labor and be more competitive - they don't care about the poor. Why other people, particularly the blacks since 90% of them vote for Democrat, want illegals?

Let's put the laws, the constitution, and the country aside for a moment and pretend they don't matter. By importing 50-70 million illegal immigrants, mostly poor, it could take a huge chunk out of the already small pie of welfare at a time we won't even be able to pay back the current debt!

Not to mention, those illegals will compete with the poor for all the low end jobs. Wait until they become legal, they will ask for $15/hour. Why adding 50 million to the already saturated labor pool?

How is that in anyway helping the poor? Why would anybody vote for the Democrat? This is like to screw every poor person in the behind with a spacecraft.

Dem voters don't want jobs. They want welfare.

How many variations of this question do folks need to ask.

Folks vote for Democrats because they don't vote for Republicans. For an in depth explanation see the other hundreds of threads that cover the subject in general and the specific issues of why!

I agree, anyone with over one million dollars invested, not net worth, should not vote Democrat unless they sometimes care about other issues more than their investments.

But they will get a whole lot less once they add 50 million mouths.

Why do you vote for Democrat? You hate the poor just like the Republicans?

I vote for Democrats because I want future generations to be able to string a coherent sentence together. I'm guessing the OP was educated in a red state.
