SUBJECT: ELECTION THEFT IN THE UNITED STATES MORAL: THOSE WHO CANNOT OR WILL NOT RECOGNIZE HISTORY IN THE MAKING CONDEMN THEMSELVES TO SUFFER SUFFER THE WHIMS OF THOSE MAKING THE HISTORY

Blogger's Note: I personally know Mark Crispin Miller(MCM) and Jonathan Simon, and I've heard Bob Fritakis speak a couple of times, including when he upstaged me by speaking just ahead of me at the National Election Reform Conference in Nashville, April 8-10, 2005. Jonathan is one of the smartest people I know and is the current director of the Election Defense Alliance. Jon, Bob, and I each wrote a chapter for the book edited by MCM entitled "Loser Take All -- Election Fraud and the Subversion of Democracy 2000 - 2008." You can order a copy from Amazon.

The person leaving the comments above is a bit lost. One needs to acknowledge the current reality to move beyond. And the current reality is that corporations have hijacked the last vestiges of our democracy by attacking the very last process left in bringing about peaceful change ... the ability to accurately and verifiably count ballots. They've already hijacked our candidates with cash and corruption, dumbed down our political discourse into a blue/red sporting match, filled the airwaves with right wing hate, discouraged many of us from showing up to the ballot box by putting barriers and arbitrarily disqualifying folks...what is next...perhaps a revolt is the last remedy.

The problem is that the certain individuals prefer to politicize or racialize issues, rather than presenting them as a human problem.

I am fully aware of how the powerful influence politics, as are many on the right and left. If you think the Dem's are immune from this problem you are wrong.

The level of discourse provided by these people you reference (and yourself) does not further the cause. It does not advance a solution, but polarizes people. Can't you see that you play into their hands?

The fact that you deleted my post proves the point. You just represent the alternative bigoted and biased point of view (different from the other biased viewpoint)

BTW, are you discussing the new black panther party that Mr. Holder refused to prosecute?

BTW,

It appears that I am the only person reading your website. I do kind of like it, even thought the views are little off kilter.

Enjoy my attention, it appears that it is all you are getting.
