The Dems see infinite party power in those numbers.

It's all about staying in power.
It is a proposal so that people living on work and student visas can vote in local elections.

Yes. It's one of those things with elected representatives. Would you prefer a direct democracy?

Well that is something different and an example of how poor the GOP has been with courting votes from non-whites.

The GOP failed the American people by not exposing the IRS and Benghazi scandals BEFORE the 2012 election. At this point, I sit here and say, "Who cares anymore? Our country has been taken over by corrupt Statist Marxists who wipe their behinds with our Constitution. Tea Partiers are as afraid to show their Gadsen Flags as Jews were afraid to show a Star of David in 1938 Germany. The really sad part is it is the Jews who are controlling this global Bernie Madoff scheme. And so, I no longer vote. No point. They won. It's time to roll over or go to the ovens. Heil Obama!

or ........ have ourselves a good ol' Revolution!

They should just like someone from China vote.
So, you don't grasp the concept of a "proposal."
