Dragonblazzer969 going to go ahead and guess you missed this part; "The measure would have had no practical effect even if it had passed. Illegal immigrants — and indeed noncitizens as a whole — are not legally able to participate in federal elections."

Dragonblazzer969 unless your referencing at the state and local level, guess what though, this was also in the post you we're so kind to provide; "Experts say as many as 40 states or territories allowed noncitizen voting dating back to the nation’s founding."

Dragonblazzer969 Yes, it is a bit unfair, those rights came into existance mainly for first nations people, who under federal law could not vote as they weren't recognized as citizens, these measures at the state and local level was a means allow people to come together and make community decisions without un-necessary interference from federal authorities.

Dragonblazzer969 and as for today, no, its hard to get better education when the request for a visa is rejected for ones level of education, which is a large determining factor in ones approval for a visa.

Dragonblazzer969 and yes, painting over everyones seperate reasons with one wide brush over a non-issue that has existed since the nations inception to destroy a bill made to make elections more open and democratic just to tow the party line is unfair, it's ignorant, its against your own interest, not to mention democratic values in general.

@redpillchristopher8790 i guess i need to repost this... "The measure would have had no practical effect even if it had passed. Illegal immigrants — and indeed noncitizens as a whole — are not legally able to participate in federal elections. Regardless of the language in the bill, what you are claiming could not happen without an actual constitutional ammendment, which is something neither republicans or democrats have pushed for, so you point is kinda null and void there...

@thekurgan3688 whats that? Still living in the last election where hillary is actually relevant? How cute

@jackmcandle6955 I hate to tell you this, but if the president's job has been to "lead the country through truth, justice and dignity, then the institution has be fundamentaly broken since it's inception. While trump is a punce, no doubting that, least not from me, he is not the cause of americas woes, simply just a side-effect of it.

@ravenhawk538 hmmm, I remember trump using the border for votes...."build that wall" ringing any bells?

@thekurgan3688 also, I believe you mean congress, the US is (in name at least) a representative congressional democracy, not a parliamentary democracy as one has in the commonwealth. Yes by the way, there is a difference.

@y3ee3e I would say we need more people like Vladimir Lenin

@jackmcandle6955 i understand your point, sorry you have to go through that, thats why i moved to a country where people like trump end up in labor camp on the isle of youth or get the wall

@joebeetz1832 do you need to fulfill it, probably not, it would be nice though, even if that meant satisfying a revisionist like Khrushchev.

@juicyjumbler Communist NY Times? Ron Nixon? Lay off the crack pipe, the NY Times isnt Pravda, its a capitalis enterprise owned by the bourgeoisie of the likes of Carlos Slims, the Sulzberger dynasty and mark thompson, any of whom would get the wall in a communist society as counter-revolutionary enemies of the working class. Hate the libs all you want, but that doesnt make them communist or comrades of communist. Sincerely.... a communist.

@juicyjumbler glad i could piss on your sunshine :)

@juicyjumbler ohh most evil ideology? Id ask how you figure that but im going to assume its likely from the black book of communism, yet meanwhile 100 million people die every decade from preventable deaths due to the inability of capitalism to equitably provide for society, and rob the coming generations of theyre futures by destorying our ecosystem in the drive for further profit, so yeah i would tack that "evil ideology" title onto capitalism.
1
@juicyjumbler ohh, and no making money isnt the issue, its private ownership is the issue, the exploitation of the hundreds of workers for shareholder profit is the issue, as these matters are rather explicitly discussed in the Communist Manifesto as well as Capital, as well as most existing marxist literature in general, which i would now likely doubt that you have ever read in your life because we wouldnt be having this debate if you had an understanding of marxist principles "derp derp". Ohh, given that his name is "Sulzberger" one can already extrapolate the jewish heritage. You dont have to tack on Jew in an insulting manner every time you mention the name, unless your just as much of an anti-semite as you are an anti-communist, that would actually explain some shite.

@juicyjumbler nah, Cuba already has the vaccine for small cell lung cancer as well as skin cancer and socialized medical care, so im good there, but all the same, i hope you get the wall, at least in the soviet sense of the term, cheers goebbels!!
1
@juicyjumbler No.1 I rather doubt your sincerity. No.2 My parents never failed me, i see you still assuming things your know shite about. No.3 I dont need the pity of a anti-semitic nazbol gobshite. Work on some better comebacks.

@MARY HARTMAN, MARY HARTMAN Americans would starve under Cortez, just as they starve to death under Trump, just as they did under Obama's tenure and Bush before that, message of the day, capitalism kills, regardless of who happens to be the ring leader.

@desi00000 So your wanting a Marxist-Leninist to support rigged electoral politics to facilitate the assention of more imperialist to power, I implore you to revolt, to no longer take part in a system that will not bring change, America as it stands is a nation built by the exploited for the gain fo capital distributed to the top, whomever is elected to serve in the government that ensures the continuation of that lifestyle is an enemy of the proletariat (working class). To be quite frank, voting blue next election isnt putting any imperialist and class traitors to the fuckin wall, or redistribute thier ill gotten wealth, which on the other hand has been historically proven to bring real and lasting change.
1
@desi00000 secondly, i cant help you next november, as 4 years ago I moved to Cuba and renounced my citizenship, I can only hope that the working class in america may one day wake up to realize its material conditions and actually do someting about it, as simply voting blue or red will only continue the stasus quo.

Robert John rochell I'm hoping one day she will go full M-L and stop wasting time on electoral politics in the empire...but I digress....

@desi00000 You assume it is only my assertion? Why? this conclusion has been reached by a scientific process of dialectical materialism that holds two centuries of evidence as clear proof that "democracy" as you call it under a capitalist structure is nothing more than a sham meant to maintain the complacency of the lumpen prol and petit bourgeoisie. I take great concern on the goings on in the states because although I moved, I do still have family there that I do care about, also given that you nation still holds a hostile, and for that matter illegal embargo (that both of your political parties support) over mine for refusing to be exploited by imperialist, I have all the fucking right to concern myself in these matters sir. Cuba IS a democracy, with executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government, we hold open and fair elections with a higher percentage voter turn out than the US could ever hope for, so please save your time preaching your lived experiences on democracy to me, I lack the time for a straw man argument on the matter when you quite clearly do not understand how a socialist republic works outside of the anti-communist propaganda you've been spoonfed up there, For that I feel sorry that we cant have a more rational debate on the matter. I'm not personally accusing you of being an imperialist, your simply one of the lumpen proletariat that unknowingly supports the imperialist whilst being led to believe your working for the best interest of yourself and the ones you care about. I'm not trying to insult you by saying this, Im simply trying to motivate you to again, understand the material conditions in which you live, a social and political revolution is not going to come from the inside of the institution in place. This is a known fact. They tried it in Guatemala before, said imperialist i concern myself with led a coup backed by both parties in the United States to install a military dictatorship that led to a civil war in which more than 8000 people were murdered outright by the government and another 40,000 would be lost in the fighting, this has happened time and time again. I need not assume your, the DNC's, or the GOP's motives to understand what the end result will be, as it has always been. Im not taking part in any "tea party belief" as you call it. I believe in the revolutionary capacity of the working class to overthrow thier oppressors, and see your views as being harmful to the extent of bringing about that outcome. Weather your a moderate or progressive in the party is besides the point, liberal politics will not bring change or put an end to the capitalist ruling class that does run your society while maintaining a global empire through brute force and exploitation
