Why Elections Matter



"For I was hungry and you fed me; I was thirsty and you gave me water; I was a stranger and you invited me into your homes; naked and you clothed me; sick and in prison, and you visited me." Matthew 25:25-26

Let me preface my comments on immigration by asserting this, "Anyone who walks in the doors of FredWes will be loved, respected and ministered to regardless of where they came from or how they got here!"

That is simply a fact!

The immigration crisis is a key issue in the 2016 Presidential election as it should be. National sovereignty is essential to the security and survival of a nation and unchecked immigration threatens both of those. In fact, unchecked immigration is an invasion.

Think about it, the debate on illegal immigration ought to end at the word "illegal" shouldn't it? At a moment in our national history when law and order are on a precipitous decline why should we allow the invasion of more "illegals".

Please understand that my concern is not directed at the people crossing our borders illegally. Who can blame them for seeking a better life? My concern is with this administration who created this crisis to serve their selfish political agenda. 

Here is what they are up to and why the border must be secured and immigration laws observed.

1) Soon after assuming the Presidency, the Obama Administration took the unprecedented action of moving the Census Bureau into the White House. Why would they do that? They did to identify the areas in the U.S. that vote conservatively so they can flood those areas with immigrants who can change the demographics. It's about inflating their voting rolls and consolidating power. With that strategy it is only a matter of time until they have a one party system.

2) Flooding the nation with good but poor, uneducated and unskilled people will produce a new class of dependents that will need and use Government assistance thus allowing massive Government expansion. With printed money and borrowed money needed to massively expand the welfare, healthcare and social security demands our deficit will continue growing dragging down our economy.

3) Overwhelming our nation with hard-working but low skilled workers who will settle for sub-standard pay will further damage our economy by lowering wages and make it more difficult to find jobs for entry level Americans.

4) The steady stream of illegal undocumented immigrants pouring into our nation is unfair to those who have immigrated legally and are patiently working through the expensive process of acquiring legal citizenship status.

I haven't mentioned the communicable diseases that are brought within our borders or the potential for increased crime or terrorism.

I hate lawlessness and I despise the exploitation of disadvantaged people.

This is why elections matter! 

Before you cast your vote, carefully study each candidate's positions on the important issue of immigration.

God help us!
