Bernie says "Let felons vote."
News | 6 April 2019 | Kevin Hardy

Go look at the DeMoines Register website. Bernie is advocating to allow felons to vote. Most Democrats have little or no values and are criminally-minded, just like Trump has said. So, it makes sense.

“Typically inmates are conservative.”

So you’re saying either that Bernie is a TOTAL IDIOT? Or maybe that Bernie wants CONSERVATIVES to take over the country, thereby invalidating everything he’s pushed for and even what he’s campaigned for, for DECADES?

Sorry, I don’t know you, but I sure as hell DO NOT trust Bernie. I guess the question for many of us here is very simple: Why do YOU trust Bernie to look out for our interests?

Number One on the list of Democrat moves to steal the next national election. Also, the one most likely to succeed. Others on the list include eliminating the Electoral College or compacts by States to nullify its effect, and the Soros plan to place Democrat lackeys in charge of State elections.

this started in florida and some dems have picked dit up as an issue. Most states have not.

To believe that Bernie is not an idiot defies the facts it calls my experiences unreal.

I can assure you Bernie and his staff have never talked to more than 10 inmates

I oppose inmates voting as part of their punishment, but after a good parole, they should be retstored to full rights.

Why not? The Democrat Party: The Party of slavery, infanticide, lynching, abortion, voter fraud, Jim Crow, illegal immigration, segregation, and FELONY!

Right to vote is a right. Sorry it should not be based on weather you are a Democrat or Republican. For me, that it the easiest, most important prison reform.

Like I say, if the country was 60/40, or more, Republican, we might have the luxury of handing the Democrats MILLIONS of votes.

But we are not. The ONLY THING that I care about is preserving FREEDOM for Americans...and if we hand millions of people the right to vote and they vote Democrat (which we all know they will), particularly when they haven’t earned it - then we are FINISHED.

But yea, I do get it. In college there was a flaming leftist woman who told me that she simply DID NOT CARE what became of South Africa...all she cared about was getting rid of white rule. I understand the mindset, but PLEASE, could you guys simply do it in OTHER COUNTRIES, as she did. I absolutely LOVE AMERICA as it is today. Please go try your social experiments in OTHER COUNTRIES - my kids and grand kids simply DO NOT DESERVE this punishment.

“...this started in florida and some dems have picked dit up as an issue.”

It was only voted on in November. I will NEVER be a Democrat enabler, since I have kids, and I care what kind of country I leave them.

As to how felons vote, we’re now 50 posts deep, and NO ONE here has produced any EVIDENCE that felons will vote Republican. It seems to be as much of a PIPE DREAM as McCain thinking that 30 Million Illegals will vote for us, if we would only legalize them.

“Right to vote is a right. Sorry it should not be based on weather you are a Democrat or Republican. For me, that it the easiest, most important prison reform.”

They GAVE UP that right permanently when they committed a FELONY. It’s NO DIFFERENT than giving up the right to breathe air if you kill someone in a state with a Death Penalty.

What the hell am I missing here - are you also against the Death Penalty or something?

NOR IS THERE EVIDENCE THEY WILL VOTE DEM.

I don’t advocate prisoners or parolees vote. As i said earlier, after a honorable discharge from parole; yes when they are done with the system.

There is LOTS OF EVIDENCE that they will vote Democrat, it is called their ETHNIC MAKEUP.

What you want us to believe is that, for some insane reason, virtually ALL of the black felons happen to be the 8 or 9% of blacks who are conservative (and blacks are close to half of the prison population).

Sorry, NO DICE. Come back with SOME REAL DATA if you want to claim that Republicans are helped by letting felons vote.

You are only looking like a troll here trying to push SOME AGENDA that defies all common sense.

Ex-Con voting isn’t particularly liberal anyhow. It won’t change any elections. And if they’ve paid their debt to society why shouldn’t they get their rights back?

The reality is, I would have any person even suggesting felons should be allowed to vote hanged. Has nothing to do with Christian values. It has to do with people trying to subvert the values of this nation with treasonous acts like that. Do I need to make it more clear to you?
