I really do think we need to have laws that encourage real people to show up and show I.D. in order to vote in public elections. I think the chance of certain groups manipulating people and voting is very high. Some would go so far to pick them up at their homes and PAY them to vote. To me that destroys the very essence of fair elections.
I don't think that most people dislike new immigrants at all. I would say that I speak for the majority of people in the U.S. when I say that good people are welcome and those that want to sell people or drugs are not. All around us in Florida we have so many great examples of hard working, saving, diligent and honest immigrants who want to be a success in this great land. And then there are a few who are here to harm us and use us. We need SOME controls to keep the bad people out. I have a REAL problem as a mother understanding how anyone could allow their child to come here or anywhere far from home unattended by someone who will protect them. It goes against ALL instinct that women are born with and all the high oxytocin we keep once we become a mother.

Gracie;
You are one of the voices of reason on TOTV and I always respect your opinion. You are absolutely correct. I fail to comprehend how ANY American would not support elections ONLY for Citizens. That is our law as outlined in our Constitution.
Some here ask, "Where is the problem?" My answer is, the problem may or may not be currently present but if we fail to protect against any voting procedures that might make fraud easier, then we all but ensure that legitimate citizen votes will be marginalized.
I welcome all who want to come to this country LEGALLY and contribute to the tapestry that is the American people. I have no truck with those who encourage anyone to circumvent our immigration laws, including those at the highest levels of government.
We are either a Nation of Laws or we are not a Nation at all.
