Why is Eric Holder campaigning to restore voting rights for convicted felons?

Eric has been giving speeches pitching the idea of restoring voting rights to convicted felons. Is this because Eric is concerned with restoring the civil rights of convicted felons? What is his angle?

I assume Holder just wants this applied to just the Banker white collar criminals though right? Holder does not prosecute bankers, no siree.

Kind of Like Rand Paul, he only wants those rights restored to NON VIOLENT felons. can you believe that? Why not rapists and murderers too? Shouldn't they get a say in who our servants are?

I'd support reinstating voting rights after time served.

I'd also support eliminating voting rights for welfare recipients.

I'm glad you finally decided to roll out of bed, I got up 8 hours ago.
i got done trimming and went to bed 6 and a half hours ago. i'd have slept in until 2pm or so, but the wife is away right now and the dogs, cats, and birds don't like to be kept waiting for food.

more pressing is the 4 month old puppy with the tiny bladder who simply can't hold it that long.

I didn't know you were an indoor guy Buck, I though you were exclusively a greenhouse guy for some reason. How many watts you running, if you don't mind me asking?

If I'm out of a job and have to go on welfare I don't get to vote? Fuck you and your party of god and raygun. /shrug

If you're fine with other people working to pay YOUR bills, feed you and YOUR children, and put a roof over YOUR head, you should be fine with other people voting for you as well.

Maybe Eric will suggest that welfare recipients be deprived of voting rights?

Nah, that ain't gonna happen.

I wonder why he wants to allow felons to vote? Any guesses?
