Are the homeless aloud to vote?

They can vote, although they need to register, and demonstrate they have been in the jurisdiction for the right amount of time.  There are many practical difficulties, but in theory they are allowed to.\n\n(They would not have been able to when the country was founded -- only white male property owners were allowed to when the US was founded.  Something to think about when asking what would the founding fathers have done about a given issue.)

No, they believe it gets them votes. \n\nDemocrats have ruled over poor people over the last 40 years since they consolidated votes of poor people and they have done nothing for the poor. \n\nIn fact, the housing projects and welfare programs have made things worse. \n\nThe public schools are run for the benefit of teacher unions (who give millions of dollars to Democratic politicians) while poor and minority students languish.

Money is paid to whistle blowers because they generally lose thier jobs.  I would agree with it being thier civic duty, they still need money to support themselves and thier families.  Otherwise, people would be less likely to "blow the whistle" if they might become homeless.

Okay, no.  That would be a tad bit creepy.  Also, very undignified.  I would never vote for anyone if they acted like that and then decided to run for a position in the government.  I am impressed that you took the time to type that entire thing in ghetto-speak though.  Rather nice.

LOL.  Well obviously the answer is 'yes', the 'people have spoken' or so to speak.  We had our chance for our voices to be heard (it's called Election Day, it pre-marked on most calendars), and we failed to do so.  It's sad how politics, especially Bush, have become such a polarizing factor in America, when fewer people voted in the last election preportionately than ever.  You would think with all these strong opinions, people would have been clogging the polls. So, in a nutshell 'let your voice be heard'?  Obviously most people don't care about that any more.

Believe it or not, there are many homeless people out there because they choose to be. It is easier living hand to mouth than working for a living. Until the fraudulent ones are weeded out there is nothing that we can do to solve the problem.

Will you vote on election day?

well that's not a good idea. most homeless people are homeless because they screwed up their life. they do not deserve a home of their own.

No, registering to vote is always free.  Poll taxes and fees used to be use to screen out poor minorities, but that is long gone now.

You need to restate that, " will you sell out your right to vote to a party who believes you are ignorant, as long as they increase your welfare and give you special tax credits even though you don't work."\n\nThat is how the liberals get elected, they promise the welfare vote the sun, the moon and the stars to get their vote, then do what they want to do. go figure.

No far from it....the fact that we are at war shows our involvement in world issues,as well as our own....The next Presidential election will reveal poll & Government involvement among the population of voters,& I believe it will bring those out to vote that maybe wouldnt otherwise..Some are saying the current situations are discouraging & influencing their desire to vote,little do they realize that this is the time to be heard & make a difference by doing so..\nSo many are quick to criticise men & women in office,yet they didn't even cast a vote,that is just wrong...Yep,I see us involved from here on out..USA rocks!

No.  You do that on your own time.  What, you want to be paid to perform your civic duty too?  Jeesh.  The polls are open till 7.  Make time and stop making excuses.
