Right. And you and your cohorts think illegal aliens are the exact equivalent of U.S. citizens. Actually you think illegals should be treated better than U.S. citizens. That's why your side is going to continue to lose.

I said nothing of the sort.

But again, your side is the one that is trying to change the meaning of the census from what it has always been.

Stop lying. The citizenship question was on the census until 1950.

I have a dollar for every liberal who actually knew this wasn't already a question. I would have figured this would have been question #1, and anyone who claims otherwise is a liar.

I don't have an opinion on the citizenship question but it does appear that on 2020 form I will be able to list my ethnicity under race which I like since I don't identify by race but by ethnicity.

It's interesting that because you admit ignorance, you assume everyone else is as ignorant as you. Wishful thinking, but that's not how it works.

Congressional representation is based on total population, not citizens only.

Again, the goal of the census is to count all people in the country, including illegal aliens.
Exactly!
