"Obama's Illegal Lottery" shows that the Obama campaign raised money through interstate gambling, which must have all three of the following characteristics to be illegal:

Payment of consideration (something of value) An element of chance A prize

A YouTube video by Barack Obama himself proves unequivocally that he not only knew about, but participated in, such a fundraising scheme. He says very clearly that four people who donate money (payment of consideration) will be selected (element of chance) to be flown in to have dinner with him, at his expense (prize). WorldNet Daily reported that the Obama camp modified these promotions to allow people to enter without donating money, but only after complaints from at least one law enforcement agency.

It’s not a double standard. The Democrats believe that the purpose of the law is to provide a means by which to punish your political enemies. They cannot conceive of applying the law to both sides.

This is why conservatism loses and will continue to lose. We write columns and point out liberal corruption. They appoint liberal judges and USE those judges to throw us in jail.

Liberals aren't afraid to use government power to destroy.

They're in the "end game," they know they've won. Meanwhile we're ecstatic that we'll pick up a handful of Senate seats.

I hope he got four freeloaders. On the other hand that’s what he dearly likes anyhow.

The power is going to be where the people put their hearts. Using it is only an afterthought.

“to be flown in to have dinner with him, at his expense (prize)”

Slam dunk defense: the “prize” was worthless.

It’s kind of vain to complain of an asymmetrical problem. Envying evil is a way to go nowhere fast.

Off subject.
I’m currently reading D’Souza’s The Enemy At Home. I’ve already read 2016 and America.
What other of his books would you folks recommend?

Well, Rule of Law is one thing. Rule of lawyers is another.
