Dear Moron

The primary purpose of the Census is to determine poltical representation. WHY, unless you are deliberately trying to foster fraud, would you count anyone BUT Citizens?

Or, if you are going to count everybody (a reasonable reading of the constitution) then separating out non-Citizens (like Bill Clinton did also) is essential to maintain electoral integrity. The only reason not to determine citizenship in the census is so they can count illegals as citizens.

Perhaps an amendment to only count people legally eligible to vote would make more sense?

After all, these are the people who have direct representation.

We can depend on them to vote in ways that support them, their dependents, and neighbors who do not have the franchise, can’t we? No two year-old has direct representation now, if you count them to determine voter representation how does that work, exactly?
