Default BHO and the census

Can anyone explain why BHO wants to have control of the census? The
Census Bureau has worked for decades to make itself non-partisan.
Judd Greg has pulled his name as Sec. of Commerce because of this.
Good man, btw.

_IF_ he does, it can only be for one (real) reason - to ensure Dems are helped
by it through "minority inclusion" and/or gerrymandering. I heard something
about how his folks were allegedly all upset because homeless people are often
excluded from the Census. Fair enough, but how are you going to assign
_homeless_ people into Congressional districts...?
