If the dumb masses can be convinced

If you say that pair of words aloud, rapidly, it makes more sense.

After all, isn't that what democracy (majority rule) means?

An early example of democracy:

"Give us Barabbas".

Good article

Yeah if I could go back in time, I would tell the founding fathers to add an amendment that states “With the exception of military service if you receive any money from the government for any reason you are not allowed to vote in any election for 2 years.”

Oh and except for except DAs & such all Lawyers are barred from running for political office

"... the term "democrat" originated as an epithet and referred to 'one who panders to the crude and mindless whims of the masses..."

Ipso facto

I was a Neal Bootz fan until today. His pushing of Obama went way way way too far. He’s off my radio for good.

For years I’ve had this nagging thought that voting in elections should be restricted. If certain qualifications are not met, you simply don’t quality. Didn’t stay in school? Can you read English? Have a criminal record? Do you get a check from the Gov’t while you don’t work? Are you legally in this country? Basics. Frankly, I wouldn’t mind some type of property ownership qualification as well, but that might get me in trouble.

btw: if you’ve been honorably discharged, you’re automatically in. If you’re currently in the service, you’re vote should count twice.

For the Founders, there would have been no other reason why you would have received money from the government (well, very very few other reasons).

No thanks. I don't really want some of the guys who are currently in having an enhanced ability to make decisions for the rest of us.

Our government was designed to prevent the tyranny of the majority over the minority. The Federalist Papers describe that goal very nicely.

Democracy is two wolves and one sheep deciding on what’s for lunch.
