2/3 of Republicans believe voting is a privilege - Not a right

[danielpalos]

This was reported last week,straight out of the mouth of some Democrat who was actually complaining about it, God bless his heart.

Did you ignore post #128?

Human infrastructure matters. Why not insist on more efficient solutions with the highest multiplier?

Thanks for proving my point. Paying people not to work isn't infrastructure

 

[hadit]

Are you not concerned about this coming back to bite the Dems when the GOP have the advantage?

Of course not. Democrats never look beyond the next political advantage and always go nuts when it rebounds against them.

Only capital has to circulate under Capitalism. Why do right-wingers prefer being "wage-slave drivers"?

 

[hadit]

Don't be a weasel and try to spin it.
Just admit that 2/3 of Republicans don't understand the Constitution.
Driving is a privilege - Voting is a RIGHT.

Let's look at the verbage:

The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.

I believe everyone would agree that the key words here are highlighted in bold, and every attempt should be made to ensure that only those are allowed to vote.

If you work hard you will get paid well. A minimum wage job isn't suppose to be a carrer.

In right-wing mythology? John Henry died trying to keep up with more profitable automation.

If you said stupid stuff like you have been doing, probably.

You prove you are like that in the public domain. Have you no shame?

 

[22lcidw]

In your mind, sure.

People are destroyed.

Which is not what voter suppression laws in 47 states is primarily about. Illegals VERY rarely vote. If they're here illegally, why would they take a chance and be deported for a felony? First of all, they don't have a lot of interest in our politics. They want to work, get a paycheck, send some to a family in Mexico and fly entirely under the radar.

Weasel attempt #33 noted however. You hate facts I know, but...

I guess Democrats know more about the Constitution. See Section 2 - Time for the filibuster carveout to end this BS. In any case where such a right is being upended by power-hungry piglets, 50 votes shall be all that is needed.

Conversely, nearly 80 percent of Democrats view casting a ballot in elections as a fundamental right.

Fifteenth Amendment

Section 1​

The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.

Section 2​

The Congress shall have the power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

The const provides voting laws are the states' purview. If the dems don't like they, they need to win more state legislatures. And they are losing the upper mid-west because their policies no longer reflect working class voters.

They know more than you...............voting is a Privilege that wasn't intended for those who didn't contribute to society and couldn't take care of themselves hence the landowner and other clauses. Our founder never intended the town drunks/druggies and welfare hos to be given a free ride much less vote given a say equal to others who do contribute and take care to their own families and communities. They certainly never intended illegals the right to vote either. Our founders were actually quit snobbish in that they felt most people were morons and thusly should have no say. They were more than away that 1/2 the people have below average intelligence.

Our Founders were all immigrants from other countries. US citizenship did not exist at that time. Try again.

You don't understand this country or the Constitution. Voting is at the State level, not Federal. It's up to States how they run elections, not the imperial Federal government. The Constitution doesn't address whether voting is a right or a privilege. The Constitution does give a list of reasons that cannot be used to deny voting, but it doesn't say anywhere you do have a right to vote.

Reading is fundamental, and Democrats are fundamentally idiots

funny how demofks don't think creating 20 million fraudulent ballots isn't suppressing others votes. Too fking funny

Fox News wants to disenfranchise the Dinks.

Fox News hosts discuss how to ban 'childless' liberals from voting

Fox News hosts on Sunday promoted the idea that "childless" Americans should not be allowed to participate in society by voting. The idea was recently floated by Ohio Republican Senate candidate J.D. Vance. "Let's give votes to all children in this country, but let's give control over those...

www.rawstory.com

They reported on it and discussed it, but said they disagreed with the idea. What is wrong with you, fucking liar. Did you even listen to it? Seriously.

Hey, a question. You were a Republican for 35 years. What issues did you agree with them on that made you a Republican?
