Democrats want money for their blue states and blue cities.

Non-citizenship shouldn't 'count' against them.

More bodies, more money.

[a fool in paradise]

Restoring the question.

The guy doesn’t sound like a scientist, he sounds like 0bama’s islamic outreach advisor, still in office.

[depressed in 06]

A candidate for the rubber room at Gitmo.

Reassign this “scientist” to do research somewhere distant. Like send him to Afghanistan to help their census bureau organize a carry out a census.

[TexasGator]

Interesting, he also says the illegals would lie.

[wbarmy]

citizenship status is misreported at a very high rate for non-citizens.

What in the world does that sentence actually say?

That non-citizens lie about their citizenship status? Isn't that a no kidding Sherlock kind of question?

[Souled_Out]

Fire him. Count all citizens, deport all others.

[Ann Archy]

LOL!! I was thinking the same thing....what th HELL does that sentence mean??

[EagleUSA]

Yes, he does sound like an Obama RAT carry-over. Spewing the RAT line to protect and hide illegals.

A few weeks ago I applied for one of those advanced driver's licenses which,in a year or two,will be required to get on an airplane (even domestic flights) and to enter Federal buildings and military bases.

To get it I was required to present a US passport or US birth certificate,my Social Security card (*not* laminated),a current driver's license or state ID and two pieces of mail from banks,the government,etc.

And yet it's somehow terrible for a Census official to ask a person if he/she is a US citizen?

[spokeshave2]

Count all citizens, deport all others.

And by courtesy of the Obama regime census...there is a database of front door GPS coordinates.

When the new census is in, just connect all the non-citizens with the GPS data and send it to local ICE agents.

Transport and holding stations at the ready.

“very costly, harms the quality of the census count, and would use substantially less accurate citizenship status data than are available from administrative sources.”

Yep, the cost of that extra ink —are you a citizen — and the hiring of vast numbers of extra enumerators to implement it would stack up.

And we can’t have an accurate figure that dispels the “ll million illegals” repeated endlessly for the past 20 years.

From 1940 Census:

#15
If born in the United State, give State, Territory, or possession.

If foreign born, give country in which birthplace was situated on January 1, 1937.

Distinguish Canada-French from Canada-English and Irish Free State (Eire) from Northern Ireland.

#16
Citizenship of the foreign born.

Looks like this “scientist” is just another leftist, which means he has been outed, and asking the citizenship question is crucial. Now, TA should marginalize or fire him, and the citizenship question goes forward.

Now thanfully, this leftist doesn’t know how to be a mole. A smart mole does his job, but makes difficult to detect mistakes or “looses” things when working against his adversary boss.

[SauronOfMordor]

You are subject to a fine for lying on a census form, which creates an incentive for illegals to not participate. This would make democrats unhappy.

[mouser]

If we just count CITIZENS in california alone I wonder how many repetition electoral votes they would lose

[hal ogen]

Exile the supposed scientist and tear-up his passport
What a loser.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Abowd is a Deep State swamp lizard. He has spent his lifetime pleasuring himself beneath the umbrella of marxist universities. His name "Abowd" is Arabic, a variant of "Abdul". 'Nuff said.

The Uniparty wants to count all those people they invited here against the will of the citizens.
