3. Liberals believe individuals have a right and a responsibility to participate in public debate. (snip) the elimination of obstacles to voting; "one person, one vote;" limits on partisan gerrymandering; campaign-finance reform; and a more vibrant freedom of speech.

Opposition to one person, one vote, translates into many votes for one person. Perhaps if you are gy you get two votes? It also translates as dead voters, since the dead are still persons. They oppose any limits on gerrymandering - this means they can make crazy districts that jump over one another on behalf of interest groups.

Interesting how candid he is about undermining the vote in the United States. For when you break the one person, one vote principal, you break our system of representation.

Liberals believe individuals have a right and a responsibility to participate in public debate. [He needs to reconcile this with the liberal riot at Columbia University this past week] 

(snip) the elimination of obstacles to voting; [Allowing foreigners to vote is removing too many obstacles]   

"one person, one vote;" [He should have Mayor Daly's dad preach this]  

Limits on partisan gerrymandering; [This has been going on since 1793]  

campaign-finance reform; [I believe that was a GOP platform item, not DEM]  

and a more vibrant freedom of speech. [I refer to Columbia U again, or anywhere Ann Coulter or David Horowitz speak]
