That’s what’s been so gut-wrenching about the last 6 years: we’ve been driven over the cliff by a guy who won through fraud BOTH TIMES.
That’s a big chunk out of people’s lives. Hopefully the next two years will see a tightening of each states’ VoterID laws so that 2016 may finally be a clean election.
Ted Cruz can repeal, rollback, put us back to where we were, and with RATS having to win cleanly since they forced vote integrity with their fraud, will have lost all by 2018.
Regardless of 2016’s outcome, we’ve lost 8-10 years of our lives.
No one will ever get that back.
That’s a 3 billion people-year loss of irretrievable time.
Sadly, I see it as a trend that will continue a national bifurcation, and even that may only be temporary. Unless conservatives take control of states sufficient to undo the damage being done by public education, I am not confident in the future of liberty.
