“You’d think the Land of Liberty would be embarrassed to have race classifications a la Apartheid South Africa and Nazi Germany.”

I know the democrats that put this into place and advocate it to this day are openly shameless about almost everything.

As for me I am quite embarrassed that what I felt was once my country committed this contradictory hypocracy.

A black president who may be the most incompetent, tyrannical, and foolish president ever to sit in the white house has just been reelected.

Racism is the least of our problems.

the Act prohibits states from imposing any “voting qualification or prerequisite to voting, or standard, practice, or procedure ... to deny or abridge the right of any citizen of the United States to vote on account of race or color.”

Seems to me that this arguement if valid could apply to
the 2nd amendment also.
What the gun grabbers are trying to do is no different,
infringement is infringement no matter which amendment
you are talking about.

The Gun Rights Act of 2013...the Act prohibits states from imposing any “ qualification or prerequisite to owning, or standard, practice, or procedure ... to deny or abridge the right of any citizen of the United States to bear arms.”

If it’s good enough for voting, it’s good enough for
firearms.

The dems encouraged people to go to battleground states to help with “get out the vote” gotv. Someone I know did this and I thought it was very interesting that during the gotv process, they were so organized that they went door to door and had to personally meet with each registered voter. At the time, I thought it was unusual that this was their goal, but it just dawned on me... once they established that the registered voter wasn’t interested in voting, they sent someone in to use that voters name to vote for zero. Incredible.

Most Get out the vote efforts tend to target democrat voters, perhaps because democrat voters tend not cast their own ballots.

I honestly believe however this is but a major part of the problem. The other part is the so called low info voters who see Obama himself as a kind of cultural icon whom the press they watch all but deify as if he could do no wrong.

If Obama were to be replaced with almost anyone else and his policy’s continued you would likely have a revolution in revolt against this evil. Provided it happened before people became too accustomed to theses usurpation. His polices don’t even register with theses voters who cant look past his skin deep fame.

“An easy way to find out just what kind of numbers were talking about is to take the voting list and call each and everyone of the voters to see how many reported as voting actually voted and for whom.”

Got an Ouija board handy?

Have you ever been to a party call center? They have theses lists. The State also has theses list as your suppose to check in when you vote.

This is very do able and granted a lot of people may lye particular those who want to sound like they “did their civic duty” when they didn’t.

But a lot of people will also tell the truth. As Far as I know this is the one data point we can go on, aside from fraudulent registrations which we can’t contact anyway.
