Whether you think it's OK to suppress 1.7 million voters in this election, consider this: It's not just about this election or the candidates though we want our own choice.
Have you read this? The New York Times reported this on Thursday that GOP supporters are working to suppress votes of seniors and African-Americans in swing states where President Obama won the last election.
Suppose in the next election Democrats decided to launch a similar campaign to nail down shoes of mostly white Republican voters. Suppose you're denied the right to vote because you're unable to cite the U.S. Constitution or the Gettysburg Address.
If GOP supporters succeed in suppressing votes in 16 states, we've already breached the laws of Voting Rights -- a civil rights fight in which U.S. Rep. John Lewis nearly lost his life. Too many foot soldiers fought and died.
If successful this scathing political scalpel would return 50 years of dirty-shameful history, tantamount to political Olympics awarding gold medals to banned players. Romney and the GOP believe they're "entitled" to trample on rights of people who've won rights through emotional and physical trauma, blood, & ugliness.
I hope our goodness, as God ordained, revives our consciousness, to take a step back and recognize the danger in taking away rights of anyone, for any rationale.
These are dangerous possibilities where supporters dupe intelligent, possibly snoozing judges to see it GOP's way, but it's up to voters to register properly and choose not to fall back. Or it'll be "Romney Care" creating his brand of victimization -- squashing self-esteem, livelihood, culture, total humanity.
