Morales said he watched the presidential debates on Univision and wants his vote to speak for other Latinos, especially undocumented immigrants who need better access to benefits, jobs and housing...
"It saddened me," he said. "We thought we would be able to participate in the election to elect a president who would conform to our ideology."

Maybe we can just let all of the non-citizens vote just this once or change the election to 2009, so they can become citizens. The founders never intended to leave out thsese poor folks when they came up with that evil constitution. They love them some Hillary!

I really wanted to vote for Goldwater in ‘64, but alas! too young.

She has even chosen her favorite candidate: "La Señora Clinton."As if there was ever any question how 20-30 million illegals would vote........
What is still startling is the total silence, even within the GOP, about the permanent majority the rats would achieve.............
To: truthkeeper
Vote Hillary then. As a US citizen. STFU! Go back to Mexico and vote buddy. We are sick to death of you and your socialist ilk sucking like leeches off US taxpayers.

Gee, the twit came here 30 years ago, apparently cannot speak English, and only now has decided to apply for citizenship...only so he can vote for the most un-American candidate he can find.
We ought to send anyone and everyone back who has not applied for citizenship in 7 years and not become a citizen in 10 years. We should not continue to issue green cards to people who want the benefits of being here without becoming citizens.
To: truthkeeper
Perhaps the UN can help...this is just wrong on so many levels and a tragedy of biblical proportions. /s

A friend of mine has a lovely Hispanic wife who is a productive conservative. She applied for citizenship shortly after 9-11. Her citizenship papers weren't finalized until just after the 2004 election. She was looking forward to vote on behalf of legal immigrants who earn their citizenship, not those who come here demanding entitlements.

Moreno, a legal immigrant from Guatemala who came to Los Angeles more than 30 years ago...
I guess now that he decided it was time, the government is supposed to drop everything to make sure he can become a citizen in time to vote.
Glad he is legal but his undocumented buddies do NOT need any better access to benefits, jobs or housing. They already have it all. What more can we give them? oh never mind...I am sure they have a list.

For Moreno, that means she might be unable to cast her ballot for president. How quaint. C'mon Mo, get real! Just show up at the polling place and vote as many times as you want. This is Deep Blue L.A. not Little Town USA.
