0bama calls for mandatory voting in U.S.
Those who think high voter turnout indicates civic health should note that in three German elections, 1932-33, turnout averaged more than 86 percent, reflecting the terrible stakes: The elections decided which mobs would rule the streets and who would inhabit concentration camps.

vote early and often...In a free country people aren’t FORCED to vote... aren’t force to buy certain products or FORCED to eat some foods on Monday and different ones on Friday.
The whole essence of freedom is based on choices...
Hate liberals - they’re the filth of the world....
He’d get a two-fer implementing mandatory voting. The complacent are more likely to vote for the “free stuff” candidate when compelled to vote. The liberty-minded are more likely to stay home in a gesture (however small) of F U. Both work in his favor.
There’s a reason the Founders limited voting to landowners: they were more interested in liberty than compulsory benefitting from others.
Obama's mind is imploding. We're going to see him reveal his inner lunatic in all its horrifying glory before he leaves office.
Question: Aren’t voting laws determined at least to some extent by the various States and overseen by the Feds? If that’s the case....can Obama actually issue an edict to mandate compulsory voting?
