“When immigrants register, they generally show up to vote. More than 89 percent of registered foreign-born Americans cast ballots in 2008, according to the Pew Hispanic Center.”
That is fat too many “naturalized” citizens competing against tha votes people who were born here.
I’ve been to a few citizenship events in L.A. in the past 5 years, even one with thousands at the L.A. Convention Center. My sis-in-law became an American citizen a year ago. Right outside the hallway are tables for the Dems...and the GOP. One quick observation about the GOP table: all the people sitting behind the GOP registration table were white. That in itself is a projection of a problem with new immigrants.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with people voting who have come to this country through legal means and who have gone through the citizenship process.
Why would you say something like you have? You sound like you are trying to drive them to the Democrat party. Most new immigrants hold conservative views.
If you have never been to a swearing in ceremony, do yourself a favor and withness one. There is a reason such high percentages of these immigrants vote. It is because they love their new country that they dreamed for so long would one day be theirs.
A very large majority of legal immigrants bust their butts working and paying taxes. The work ethic, especially among the Asian cultures is unreal.
Naturalized citizens are among our best citizens.
