1. New Hampshire Primaries Election Fraud

If you believe that professional pollsters only mess up when trillions of dollars are on the line for the establishment then you are fooling yourself. Statistics can be used in court. At the very least as a basis for reason rather than making up effects that only exist based on convenience. If the paper ballots don't match the optical scans then we are finally getting to the real soar spot in our delicate democracy. If we wait too long they will ignore us.

2. Insensitive MLK Comment

During an election period candidates should be more careful in wording speech. The FULL CLIP of the comments she made are disturbing at the very least if you are expecting votes. And what kind of votes is she asking for? Not a pretty thought. I truly believe her comment shows professional INCOMPETENCE.

3. Voter Suppression

Suppression of votes by changing the DNC rules as they go would destroy the system all together. Is this what the courts in Nevada are really trying to do?

Conclusion

You would have to be blind at this point to ignore the patterns of the old system. No matter what. Vote your conscience. These guys think their secret wisedom is more powerful and efficient to our country than BIODIVERSITY. I think not!

PS: The mind sees the short term. The heart sees the whole picture.
