Illegal Immigrants, Amnesty, 2012 Voting blocks

Healthcare now, amnesty next: Good for the country or vote tallying for 2012?

Barack Obama asked the Dem’s to help him save his Presidency by voting for his healthcare bill. Really! Is there an impeachment underway? America will be far too busy trying to save the country from bankruptcy to worry about Obama’s next two years in office. With amnesty looming on the horizon isn’t it more about prepping voters for his second term come 2012?

Huge voting blocs exist today that can swing an election to one side or the other. Some of these communities are being birthed at this very moment and it would be folly to ignore them in the elections of 2010 and 2012 respectively. What are they: let’s do the math?

Barack Obama has promised to take up the issue of illegal immigrants as his next order of business. If amnesty is on his mind then the possibility of adding twelve million voters to the already powerful Latino bloc of voters is staggering. If amnesty is seriously considered then there is little doubt that eight to twelve million votes will be cast for the person and the party that engineered the free citizenship pass.

It is hard to imagine that after committing a felony by entering this nation illegally that the reward for this is; free citizenship. As ridiculous as this may sound, we mustn’t forget that this administration just passed a 9 trillion dollar healthcare bill in a country that is on the verge of bankruptcy. That alone is a stern reminder that we must not take anything for granted.

What kind of legislative lunacy does it take to enforce the law that strips Americans who are convicted of a felony of their freedom and their right to vote but, then give foreigners who have committed a felony both freedom and the right to vote? Many of our legislators have degrees in law or political science so we can only guess that they may have missed the lectures on the equitability of the law. You know; it’s what the rest of us call fairness.

Although the healthcare bill passed in the house Sunday March 21, 2010, we will not see people added to the rolls until 2014. Specific benefits provided for in this bill will probably be announced to at least some of the 32 million people who are going to be covered. If constitutional challenges to the bill and states resistance to many of its provisions don’t stifle the full impact of the legislation; then we can safely say Mr. Obama has potentially secured himself a possible 32 million votes from this bloc.

Although it is said that the phrase “A chicken in every potâ€
