It would seem that the big fear of adding the citizenship question to the census is that non-citizens would not respond, and some states would lose political power, but then that begs the question, should non-citizens be represented in our national legislature?

Yeah well, without Dirt here to start chit, we all have to do our part to keep the place going. But seriously, why should California, Florida, New York and North Carolina have all that representation because of their illegal populations.

Oh I married one, and have dated many. I have no problems with Hispanics, just i******s and really don't have a huge issue with them other than they want us to extend a bunch of social programs to them and if given a chance they would v**e for the destruction of America as we know it, they have no history here and because of that have no reason to preserve our country and culture. Clearly their culture was not strong enough to establish a country that could prosper and preserve, if that were the case they would not be crashing our borders.

Look its all about those who value and respect the US, and treating people fairly.
Now you know there are those who are going to say it was theirs first and they just want
back what was rightfully theirs.

Your statement "Oh I married one".

community a big favor by marrying one of theirs

Its in the Constitution, so yes...document apportions based on population.

Impacts the E*******l College as well as the House.

I imagine you know that.

I could argue both ways on legal residents, but they pay taxes so maybe should get representation.

I******s gets dicier, but most do pay taxes even if indirectly. But the law is based on population and they are part of that.

Personally, I would be fine with limiting to citizen residents...

Yeah, I can see where that looks bad, certainly should have said that another way, how about the love of my life was a Latina, and I fully embraced her culture, learned her language, danced salsa through the nights, that and I also graduated High School in Puerto Rico, I don't have to prove my bonafides about my acceptance of Latinos.

I don't have a problem with legal residents, I think that actually since they are here and are bound by our laws and are actually living under the jurisdiction of our constitution and as you suggest are paying taxes etc. that a fair case can be made for their representation, but i******s, not so much.

What makes you think that the admin deleted Dirt? Dirt was a troll but I never saw him do anything that the admin would intervene on. I think it more likely that he had a heart attack when the Mueller report dropped, either that or he has finally given up after realizing that he was taken for the "wild ride" by Politicususa for all those years.
