One person, one vote?
by nelison » 9/22/2004, 11:18 am
just discuss... I think michael Moore's Stupid White men chapter about the 2000 election also describes the dfficulties many Americans have when voting, so if you've read that you've probably read what's in here. I'll try and find more about it but I think it's a rather large problem especially when states are being won by minimal margins.
Note: before all you anti-Moore folk come and post why you hate Moore, this wasn't something conjured from thin air by Moore, not too mention every fact in his book regarding this issue is sourced. This isn't a bash Moore thread either, so try and keep it on topic. thanks

Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.
Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown

I was wondering the same thing.
I don't have a problem denying felons the right to vote but some of the phony authorities pulling dirty tricks to deter voters is a concern.

Interesting article.
Queens Of The Stone Age-Someone's In The Wolf
Once you're lost in twillights's blue
You don't find your way, the way finds you...
Tempt the fates, beware the smile
It hides all the teeth, my dear,
What's behind them...
So glad you could stay
Forever
He steps between the trees, a crooked man
There's blood on the blade
Don't take his hand
You warm by the firelight, in twilight's blue
Shadows creep & dance the walls
He's creeping too..
So glad you could stay
Forever

ok whatever, i was just basing my comment on the article that said that many people probably wouldnt be able to vote because it took so long to process registration.
registration to vote in canada is usually done at the same time that people file tax returns. *shrug*
