Why Clinton is enlisting undocumented immigrants who can't vote

The Clinton campaign is introducing a voter registration program for 'DREAMers' that empowers undocumented immigrants, as a way to show her stance on immigration policies.

Hillary Clinton's campaign announced Sunday that they would be recruiting a so-called "DREAMers," undocumented immigrants who were brought to the country as children, to help with the campaign.

But since "DREAMers" are undocumented, they're not allowed to vote.

The name "DREAMer" comes from the so-called DREAM Act, a legislative proposal that has been repeatedly been introduced in various forms since it was first proposed in 2001. DREAM stands for Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors. While each version of the legislation that has been introduced has varied considerably in details, all versions of the act would provide an easier path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants brought to the country as children as long as certain qualifications are met.

Because she doesn't want to get skunked.

The so-called Dreamers Act has been proposed to the congress several times and was soundly defeated by the congress each time.

President Obama has dictated that Dreamers (illegal aliens) should be admitted into the country anyway, against the will of the people and regardless of the repeated vote-downs by the congress.

This lawless president believes he IS a dictator.

Let’s change that headline to ...undocumented immigrants who aren’t supposed to be able to vote.”

Back before we allowed an Usurper into office who makes up laws on his own and does not enforce the ones we had, this was probably illegal.

According to the archbishop of Chicago, Blase Cupich, being undocumented or unemployed is worse than being aborted.

Just because they're not *legally qualified* to vote doesn't mean they *won't* vote.

A year or so ago I went to my local Town Hall to submit an absentee ballot for an upcoming election.Out of curiosity I asked the clerk if she needed my ID.She said,in a somewhat shocked voice,"no"! I then asked her if an ID was required to register as a voter in our town.She said in a very matter-of-fact way that Massachusetts law specifically *forbids* a government official to ask for ID when registering a person to vote.

Trump should be ready to call for auto vote audits in close states.
Nixon lost Texas and Illinois in 1960 due to LBJ engineered fraud in precinct 13 and outright fraud in Cook county.

Hey, Weston Williams, they’re called illegal aliens, NOT this bullcrap term, “undocumented immigrants.”

Because they can vote. And they can vote early and often.
