that Obama is actively petitioning to allow non-citizens to vote in American elections. Just the "Spanish" ones, of course.

When I ask her why there is absolutely NO reference to such an absurd platform anywhere on the internet, not even on the most right wing sites, her response is, "well, it's on the news in Texas all the time. On CNN." Because apparently CNN is a local Texas news outlet.
