If I am understanding your reply, I believe I addressed, and agreed with, what you are saying in my previous reply.
From my reply above: "(illegal aliens, and any other non-citizen residents, should be counted for a number of reasons, but to decide government representation numbers for citizens is not one of them) ... While the protections of our Constitution are afforded to citizens and anyone whose feet are planted on U.S. soil, the belief that non-citizens have the right to vote in our elections, have a right to have a say when it comes to picking OUR federal representatives, or to believe that their voice should be heard and responded to above any citizens' voice when it comes to drafting legislation and/or laws is a delusional belief (irrespective of that same person's political views)." |
