I see that your quote references "taxpayers". Last I checked, illegals don't pay taxes. Isn't that one of the things you conservatives are always complaining about?
I have explained this before, but I am not a conservative.
Next, illegal aliens are not excused from paying taxes. I don't know what makes you think that they are.
Just like taxes are owed on profits made from illegal activities, just because people may tend not pay them, it does not mean that they are excused from it.

Hillary Clinton is enlisting undocumented “Dreamers” into a new voter registration drive aimed at signing up sympathetic voters with warnings that Donald Trump’s immigration plans could result in their deportation – though the Dreamers themselves cannot legally vote.
The 730,000 young people known as Dreamers are prohibited from voting. However, they remain a powerful political organizing force, and the Clinton campaign hopes to use them to convince Latino and other households to go to the polls for the Democratic nominee.

Clearly the OP made this up. Even Fox News admits that they aren't going to be voting. Heck the article says this multiple times:

Exactly, and meanwhile, she is handling herself with grace and poise...further highlighting her only (realistic) opponent's glaring lack of same. It is one of the oldest tricks in the book.
She is smart enough to know that when people take the time and effort to denounce another person, that makes them a fan and a follower. They tell her exactly how she should react, what her strategy should be, what buttons are being pushed, and most importantly, how many people are out there defending her, and upon which premise they are doing so.
I would do exactly the same, were I in her position. Free advertising, free community outreach, free streaming voter analysis, and a free, accurate compass by which to navigate her path forward. I hope she takes the time to thank them for all their devoted, committed assistance when she takes office.
BS.
She'a a frail senile old woman hiding from, granted, an aggressive maniac of sorts who just happens to have the goods on her, provided by the umphteen cases of shady corruption that are splashed across the net daily now.
Wait for the debate.
If she even shows up for it.
I wouldnt if i were her.
Shes hopelessly outgunned.

If it comforts you to tell yourself that, then by all means, go ahead. I, however, see things very differently.

She may very well be doing (or failing to do) any of those things. However, you are straying from your own topic, deflecting with extraneous, unrelated issues. If you want to talk about what she should be doing, in your personal opinion, to convince undocumented immigrants to become legal citizens, then write an OP about that instead.
The topic here is your claim that a Presidential candidate is urging undocumented immigrants to vote illegally. You were basing this claim not on actual evidence, but on an opinion formed with a clear lack of adequate research and comprehension of the facts.
It was pointed out to you very clearly that had you simply read a little more, you'd have seen these people are not even eligible to vote, and that fact has been made public. It is simply an outreach program. And now, you are changing your tune to one of concern for the immigrants not being given a voice by remaining undocumented, rather than simply admitting that you took an unsubstantiated imaginary scenario and ran with it as if it had actual merit in fact.
If you're going to make a claim, be prepared to back it up, instead of deflecting and obfuscating. If not, it belongs in the Short Stories forum with all of the other fiction.

She isn't encouraging illegal's to vote, she's trying to give them a voice based on my quick review. Regardless though, if they want a voice in our politics. Then they need to become legal citizens and quit breaking the damn law.

So she is paying illegals for work?
If she ain't payin, she is rounding them up to "volunteer" to help her?
Doesn't that sound illegal?

It sounds like she's ok with herself encouraging foreigners to influence the election. But she's not ok with Trump encouraging foreigners to influence this election.
