The white kids timing is off. The black kids remark was not a judgement but my reaction to the white kid is. He is a little weenie and an embarrassment to white pride.

The most socialized country in the Western Hemisphere is the Central American Republic of Guatemala. It is also one of the few Latin American republics (according to New York Timesman W. H. Lawrence—TIME, Jan. 13) without a formal Communist party. Guatemala's socialism started by accident of war. Today one-third of its agricultural produce is grown on land operated by the Government. The land—comprising one-fourth of the country's best plantations—fell under state control when the Government expropriated the German plantations in 1944.

No worries, a few years later they formed their Communist Party, and it lasted until 1998. Central and South America over the past one hundred years is a story of failed socialism, various opportunistic dictators, drug cartels, etc. I don't have a clue how the current supposed government would be classified in terms of the definitions of production and whatnot, etc. Do they even know? Those technicalities are quite beside the point. Can such labels be applied to completely broken systems with no consistency whatsoever that change every other year? One of the annoying things about talking with leftists is that nothing is leftist. They never acknowledge left wing thinking to be the root naïve causes behind so many dysfunctional systems. Whether Guatemala or Horduras is technically left wing right now today, or whether it simply has never recovered from the left wing scourge that left the place in ruins and ruled until less than a generation ago, what's the difference?

This article is from 1947 talking about what had happened since three years prior. A rather thin slice of information with which to understand the last hundred years.

Hey, Dog. Gotta remind you of how that whole voting thing works. ‘Illegal immigrants’ cannot vote.

Now you know. : )

What are you laughing about? He's right. No one on the Left running for office has ever supported "open borders" and just because you idiots keep saying that's our position doesn't make it true. I remember Obama gave a long rant about being tough on the border, but that doesn't mean building a stupid wall that will prove useless.

Actually, we know this is true about the GOP (how they'll treat foreigners based on how foreigners help the party). After all, they welcomed Russian interference in our election. They've already put out the welcome mat to foreigners for 2018.

Patriots, they are not.
God belief is for people who don't want to live life on the universe's terms.

The first link is about school elections in the city of San Francisco because a third of the students there are from non-native families.

The second link discusses only local elections in select towns:

"The mayor and City Council are not deciding national policy. We make decisions about trash pickup, snow removal and equipment for the parks," College Park Councilwoman Christine Nagle told The New York Times in August. "We have shared concerns with our neighbors regardless of whether they are U.S. citizens."

So maybe it is that black and white. Undocumented immigrants do not vote in Presidential elections.
