It is true that there are precincts in which voter tampering is prevalent. So your solution is to say, “There’s voter tampering! Forget about voting, let’s start a civil war!”

Force of habit? Hardly. I won’t allow corruption and intimidation to scare me from exercising my Constitutional right to submit my vote. Nor will I allow descending voices to persuade me to believe that the only alternative is to start a civil war.

“If you’re not ready for Civil War...”

What I find to be alarming is your quick-draw, knee-jerk reaction to assume you know that I’m talking about or thinking. In each case, you’ve been wrong.

Is civil war inevitable? I would say that it is possible, but until such time, I will continue to exercise my right to vote. If my grandparents, who immigrated from a foreign country, can take advantage of their right to vote when their lives were in danger by doing so, then I can.

They lived in a country in which people were actually shot at the voter box if they failed to cast the right vote. Were they foolish? I think not. You, my friend, could learn something by their conviction.

We do. Whether or not some of our leaders abide by it is another story altogether.

I am a little late to this thread but this is one great speech!
Every Perry doubter needs to hear this one and see Perry’s passion.
