In Cookeville, Tennessee we see a perfect example of all that is wrong in both our immigration and electoral systems.
In 2004, an illegal immigrant voted illegally in Tennessee's Putnam County. He showed false identification and a stolen Soc. Sec. number. But in 2010 the federal government is asking Tennessee officials to help smooth this illegal's way to citizenship by ignoring past crimes.
Putnam County administrator of elections Debbie Steidl seems pretty annoyed by the whole situation. This illegal immigrant even went to her and signed an affidavit admitting that he voted illegally but he also presented the election official with a letter from the Department of Homeland Security demanding that she purge his name from the 2004 voting records.
You see, unless his name is purged he cannot seek legal citizenship because he has this illegal act on his record...

What took them so long? When will he be running for office as a Democrat?
He’ll go straight to the bench. What material. A true American success story.
Another nail in the coffin for Rule of Law.
No,he’ll be chosen to be the Czar of National Elections!
