“. . . Rome’s liberties were not auctioned off in a day, but were bought slowly, gradually, furtively, little by little.

–– Mark Twain (1835-1910)

The 2008 presidential election may well turn on the voting of illegal aliens, who along with other non-citizens, are ineligible even to register to vote but in some cases still find a way.

During the past decade, the National Commission on Federal Election Reform found that “non-citizens do vote, albeit illegally.â€

The combined immigration and election laws passed during the past 43 years have indeed diminished and diluted the vote of U.S. citizens. Public opinion polls, among them an MIT survey, find that more than 75 percent of U.S. citizens support strict and enforced election fraud laws, including the requirement for a government-issued photo identification at the time of balloting.

Heck they didn't even ask to see my voters registration card.... I think it was here that people in Europe thought they should have a say in some way about who our president is since whatever we do directly effects them..... Anyone else want to have a vote too? Seems the only benefit to being a citizen is paying taxes these days.....sure doesn't hold much weight anywhere else.

One of the States is wanting picture ID...and the Fed courts are deciding ....opponants are saying illegals don't vote and that having picture ID would only be against the poor.....This article should be sent to that state that is requiring this ID...to present to the Fed Courts.....
