I wonder if it’s legal to stand outside and hand out $5 bills to 18-21 yr olds coming out of the booths? 20 folk willing to spend $100 would get a few (400) voters motivated.
Stalin Quote: Those that Vote have no power, Those that Count votes have all the Power. Now Dagnabbit ( and Brian Kemp) want to Select who votes.I give you the Hayes Corollary to the Stalin Quote. “Those that select their voters have all the power.”
So Dag How should we select Who Votes? Being able to correctly all of the Talking Heads on Fox News? Should he Test Change for different segments of the population? Some Tests are more difficult than Others? Sounds like a good old fashioned Jim Crow Poll Test.
Dag et al., Hmm. You want Trump to decide who can vote? Or the Trumpublicans? What makes you think they’ll allow you to vote? Think about Trump’s announcement that “Just remember: What you’re seeing and what you’re reading is not what’s happening.” He wants you to believe that only his words and those of his extreme right-wing propaganda-spouting “news” organizations are true. he’s telling you that reality isn’t happening in order to advance his self-aggrandizing agenda. In fact, you and your fellow true believers are being led around by your noses, lied to on a daily basis, routinely, on a giant scale, and with malign intent. Trump and his minions have figured out what you want to hear and they continuously repeat it against all logic and demonstrable reality. They’re just saying the words you want to hear to keep you docile while they put a collar on you, and once they do you’ll be sorry but it will be too late. While no media outlet is perfect, the mainstream media are not deliberately making up lies and then repeating them over and over in support of Trump’s and the Republican’s profiteering activities. I would just leave you and your friends alone to believe whatever you please except that you are helping Trump destroy the United States of America and dragging the rest of us down with you. WAKE UP!
Some people shouldn’t vote. Some people should vote. Some people should climb a tree. Some times you feel like a nut. Some enchanted evening you will meet a stranger. Some are time and the living is easy.

Voting is something we should do. Calling ourselves super heroes for voting is more than a tad over the top.

There would be many more if only they could easily get to the polls or get past the registration process.

DagNabbit said, “Some people shouldn’t vote. Some people don’t know the issues.”
Those are EXACTLY the people that should vote. Because they always vote for our Republicans.

It’s a sad day indeed when simply voting in an election can be viewed as a superheroic action.

But of course You know what’s best. More and more I recall Socrates, “I’m the smartest man alive because I know I don’t know everything”
