Commie bernie wants felons to have right to vote FROM PRISON

[Theowl32]

Bernie Sanders wants felons to have a say, too. The Vermont senator and presidential candidate said Saturday at an Iowa town hall that people convicted of felonies should be allowed to vote from behind bars, the Des Moines Registers reports.

"I think that is absolutely the direction we should go," he said. Right now, only Vermont and Maine allow felons to cast a vote in prison.

"You’re paying a price, you committed a crime, you're in jail," he said in Muscatine. "That's bad. But you're still living in American society and you have a right to vote. I believe in that, yes, I do."

That makes Sanders the only candidate to voice such an opinion, Newsweek notes

"Commie" Bernie ( that's almost funny ).....
He could be trying to sabotage his own campaign if he
doesn't want the job anymore....maybe he's finally had enough. Personally, I'd say felons who are released and have payed their dues to society should definitely be allowed to vote, but from prison ? Even if it's not a particularly terrible idea, it will never get passed.
