The truest segment they ever did on Saturday Night Live was "Franken and Davis, brought to you by the American Communist Party."

Of course, who votes and for what has always been the question.

Free men of property, 21 and older (white and black, BTW. And yes Trayvon, quite a few blacks owned slaves), who passed literacy tests, paid a poll tax, and were citizens who voted for George Washington , Jefferson, and Adams. Out of a population of some 3-4 million, perhaps 150,000 votes.

First "reach-out" men without property. Second, those who could not pay poll taxes, then women, then the illiterate and minors. All rather neatly illustrates Democracy's fundamental flaw: eventually an election becomes "Tyranny of the Stupid," a vote to continue receiving benefits promised by those for whom one votes.
