Voter Fraud: The Left's Tool For Social Justice
americanthinker.com ^ | April 11, 2014 | Matthew Vadum

Posted on 04/12/2014 5:39:29 AM PDT by ilovesarah2012

Why did Democrats applaud the loathsome community organizer Melowese Richardson, a freshly released, unrepentant voter fraud felon, at a recent "voting rights" rally in Ohio?

Because, like Richardson, they believe they are entitled to vote more than once against a system they see as unjust. Some serial voters do what they do in order to exact revenge against a society they feel did them or their ancestors wrong. Richardson is far from alone. Double-voting is distressingly common.

Many leftists have contempt for the electoral process because they don’t believe in the electoral system as it is constituted in capitalist America. To them, elections are already a fraud – an instrument of the rich, or as Saul Alinsky prefers to call them, the Haves. If the electoral system doesn’t serve “the people,” but is only an instrument of the Haves, then election fraud is justified as the path to a future that will serve the Have-Nots, as David Horowitz has explained.

This belief helps Democrats and the rest of the left rationalize their habitual efforts to suppress and cancel out lawfully cast votes. It helps to explain the strenuous efforts of leftists like former Congressman Jesse Jackson, Jr. (D-Ill.), now federal prisoner number 32451-016, to assure the public that voter registration fraud is no big deal and that fraudulent registrations almost never turn into fraudulent votes.

This is why liberal fascists inside and outside government routinely excuse electoral fraud – in all its manifestations – arguing in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary that such fraud is merely a Republican invention created to keep minorities and the poor down.

If you pay attention, there’s very little democracy in the “Democratic” Party.

This really struck me when Evan Bayh decided not to run for re-election it just happened to be too late for the primary and the Party Bosses had to name a replacement.

Good read. People who are caught committing voter fraud should be prohibited from ever voting again. It’s the same rational applied to citizens who commit crimes being prohibited from owning guns...

They should be stood against the wall and shot. There is no greater crime than election tampering.

Ten or Twelve shot double voters would bring the practice to a grinding halt.

If we do not take this banana republic back and soon, we are headed for a race war and/or a civil war.
As it stands now we look and act like some sub Saharan tribal country. We all know how well those work.

It's one tool among many. First, getting the public to accept universal suffrage as a good thing, then corrupting implementation of law via all branches, legislative, enforcement, and courts.

And claiming it is all legitimate either because a majority of people are [voted] for it, or if they aren't, then because the legislators/courts better know what is good for the public.

Not to mention coopting education and the churches.

Problem is that the left is full of scum who hate America and they should all be driven out of America asap. They have been fixing elections for years and 2012 was won by the obamantion of Americas desolation by the damnable democrats who intend to make slaves of all whom they hate, the conservatives and Christians are their main enemies.

Obama’s ACORN Connection to Voter Fraud

The Democratic candidate’s connections to the group raise questions.

By Bonnie Erbe Oct. 10, 2008

http://www.usnews.com/opinion/blogs/erbe/2008/10/10/obamas-acorn-connection-to-voter-fraud

Hate to say it, but when one thinks of voter fraud, one usually associates it with the GOP, the 2000 election, and the debate over who won Florida. You remember, voting machines that didn’t work, long lines to vote in predominantly Democratic districts, and recounts that weren’t accurate.

This election brings with it stories of voter fraud, but this time on the Democratic side. It seems ACORN, a community organizing group that normally helps poor people with low-income housing issues, has registered thousands of people to vote in Democratic districts. Some of these supposed voters reportedly are dead, nonexistent, or use storefronts as their home addresses, as told by CNN:

CAMPBELL BROWN: Now, it is officially nonpartisan. But this group works hard to register low-income voters who tend to vote for Democrats. ACORN’s under fire over allegedly phony voter registration in several states, and Drew Griffin of CNN’s Special Investigations Unit is digging into this for us. You’ll be pretty surprised by what he found.

DREW GRIFFIN: There are 5,000 of them.

GRIFFIN: These.

HOAGLAND: These.
GRIFFIN: Those?

HOAGLAND: And these.

GRIFFIN: They are new voter registration applications turned in by the community organizing group, ACORN, which has launched a massive voter registration drive, and with 5,000 applications in this one county dumped just before the October 6 deadline; it looked to Elections Board Administrator Ruth Ann Hoagland like ACORN was extremely successful, until her workers began finding problems.

GRIFFIN: A lot of them?

HOAGLAND: 50 percent. We had close to 5,000 total from ACORN, and so far we have identified about 2,100.

GRIFFIN: So roughly half of them are bad.

HOAGLAND: Correct.

GRIFFIN: Registered to a dead person, registered as a person who lives at a fast-food shop.

HOAGLAND: Yes.

GRIFFIN: Or just all of them amazingly in the same hand.

HOAGLAND: Yes. Yes. All the signatures look exactly the same. Everything on the card filled out looks just the same.

GRIFFIN: Ruth Ann. Fraud?

HOAGLAND: We have no idea what the motive behind it is. It’s just overwhelming to us.

GRIFFIN: It’s not that some are bad. Once they started going through them, every one they looked at was bad.
As if that weren’t bad enough, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s campaign gave $800,000 to ACORN to help with voter registration, according to WiredPRNEws:
Barack Obama has strong ties to the group that pressured banks into making high-risk loans.

Fort Worth, TX (WiredPRNews.com)—ACORN, which stands for Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, pressured banks into making mortgages to those who would otherwise not qualify for them, according to an October 7, 2008 article by Stanley Kurtz, which appeared on the website for National Review.

As all Americans are footing the bill for the $700 billion bailout to prevent the collapse the financial market, ACORN leader Madeline Talbot—who has close ties to Senator Obama—personally strong-armed banks into making mortgage loans to low income minorities in the Chicago area, according to the National Review article. Kurtz writes that ACORN intimidation tactics include showing up at the home of bankers, breaking into offices and flooding bank lobbies with protestors.”

Despite all this, Senator Obama’s website accuses the GOP of trying to smear him with ties to ACORN that he says were nonexistent.

But those “smears” predated the current ACORN association.

The goal of the Left is to seize power permanently and absolutely. Social justice, the have nots, and democracy has nothing to do with it except as the means to their end. Once power has been achieved, they will do what all tyrants have always done: destroy their enemies, oppress the people, and steal the nation’s wealth.

To achieve this goal, they must import voters and suppress any and all effort to stop voter fraud. Illegal immigrants and massive voter fraud give them the numbers to win elections without regard to true public support of their policies and candidates. They believe that they are on the cusp of reaching this objective. Fair and open elections are a major threat to their scheme.

They have a particular punishment in Singapore called caning that might be more suitable for this crime than a firing squad. It’s pretty brutal punishment,but I don’t think it’s ever killed anyone. Doing nothing to those found guilty of this crime sure isn’t the answer,except to allow the spread of the problem. There should be suitable punishment for those who advocate voter/election fraud as well.

This is a profoundly important insight especially since it explains so much more about the left than merely their attitude toward cheating at the polls. It explains many seemingly unrelated things such as, why Bill Clinton was not convicted in impeachment, why Nancy Pelosi said you have to vote for Obamacare to know what's in it, why four leftist Justices have utterly abandoned the Constitution, why the administration has criminally abused its citizens through the IRS, the BLM, the EPA, and the Justice Department. It explains why the Democrats have no fear of a national debt which threatens to destroy our entire economic system or why they despise the rule law entirely.

It is because they do not believe the existing system is legitimate and that includes the Constitution and laws made pursuant to it. It means our free-market system and what's left of capitalism. It means the arbitration of disputes according to the rule of law and due process. All of these things to the left are bogus and the greater truth is to lie if necessary to bring the temple down around the Philistines so that their utopia can be built on the rubble.

Leftist politicians are all about power at any cost.

That is all you need to know about them.

Voter fraud in the greater Chicago area put JFK over the top against Nixon in 1960. Advisors to Nixon suggested to Nixon that he should contest votes in that area but he declined.

And, however are we ever going to insure fair elections? Who would we trust to administer these elections?

In the era of Etcha Sketch voting machines and no verifiable paper trail, the voting process has become an insult in and of itself.
