One of the most absurd things I can remember from 2004 were claims that African Americans were being harassed at the voting place. One problem I have with the Democrats is the whole "victim" mentality, they love to treat Blacks, Hispanics and any other minorities as "victims" that deserve special needs and attention. Interestingly, I do not remember any other group complaining about harassment. How in the hell can you be harassed when you vote?

What the hell does that even mean? I hear this word "disenfranchised" being thrown around by black leaders all the time and I am afraid many of them do not even know what it means. I dislike this victim mentality immensely and it is unfortunate that the Democrats like to capitalize on that. Has anybody here ever been harassed when they went to vote?

It means they owned a KFC and lost their franchise, so they've been disenfranchised and no long get corporate advertising.

Any, ANY, voter fraud disenfranchises everybody and legitimizes criminal activity. Both parties are shameless in doing it, and voters should not tolerate it.

This is not a "one way street", but there is a LOT more traffic from the right! Please, all black, hispanic, native american and other potentially "disenfranchised" voters. . . If you can vote early. . . DO IT. If you must wait until tomorrow. . . VOTE TOMORROW. . . . YOUR VOTE DOES COUNT. . . YOUR VOTE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT VOTE IN OUR COUNTRY. . . YOUR VOICE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT VOICE IN OUR COUNTRY. LET US ARISE AND TAKE BACK DEMOCRACY! LET THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE BE HEARD!

You need to do a little research on that one. Yes the dems have the most egregious example in ACORN however it is not only happening in one party. the republicans are smart enough to keep it small so that the news of it is just that, small.
