But we are supposed to be "EXCEPTIONAL," dire.  Should not that much-touted "American Exceptionalism" impel us to something more noble than the excesses of hatred and bigotry that darken so much of the world?

The problem is, the ones with the excess of hatred and bigotry are swarming into the country and taking it over, with the lefties help, financing and blessings I might add. More demmie voters.

Black sheriff to Obama: You built America’s racial divide

 

He built this racial divide. It was a wound that had been healing for a number of years, a number of decades…and he reopened it with his divisive politics. Look, President Obama has benefited from the ‘divide and conquer strategy’ and it secured two successive electoral victories for the White House, but it’s been very destructive for America. Who would have thought that with the election of the first black president of the United States, that we would need a period of Reconstruction to put this country back together.”

 “Look, we’re gonna have this bigger discussion about race…. We have to begin to ask when white society is going to be through paying for the sins of slavery. We’re now punishing people for sins that they didn’t commit. At some point, and I’ve done this myself — I’ve forgiven, I’ve moved on, I’ve stamped that bill marked for the wrongs of slavery ‘PAID IN FULL.’ This country is now open to opportunities for all people…. The President of the United States said the other day that it [racism] is deep-rooted, and that’s simply not true. So we have to have that discussion as to when we are really ready to move on and forgive people, especially people today who have no connection to what’s been talked about anyway.”

Yes, we punish the perpetrators.  A majority of people reject such racist beliefs that, used to be,common.   I'll comment on racism in another thread you posted.

 

As to exceptional,for 5,200 years, at least, humanity struggled under various yokes of oppression. Poverty and short miserable lives were the norm.  From the 200 years the US declared its independence, its people expressed a span of liberties unknown to the world. We went from poverty for all, but the barest few, to luxuries unknown to emperors for even the poor.  From sailing ships to the moon, Yes, I'd say exceptional.

The last time this country was exceptional was through the fifties. Follow

the liberal bouncing ball and fifty years later we rank last in every category.

Sargent Clarke is right, obumer has set us back seventy years. We might as

well be back in Lansing blowing up school buses. The total giving over by

Democrats to extreme socialism has left the right further right than planned.

Some people here are old enough to remember the thirties.

Well what's the different today than then, what happened..??

   

There was a great schism in the sixties.  The one decent thing that came of it was the civil rights movement that ended the Tom Crow laws and broke the back of racism against blacks as a major belief. 

--------------------

The civil rights movement created the new southern republicans.

The new voting laws are recreating methods to keep certain people from voting.

Yes, if you mean Republicans like Martin Luther King Jr.  However, of you're attempting to state the old line Democrats morphed into Republicans --NO!  That is an old idea Democrats use to justify their losses. As some say, "I didn't leave the Democrat party, it left me."

 

Yes, keeping illegal aliens are kept from voting. Plus, the old Democrat machine ploy of the dead rising to vote.

 

That BS again from jt. Illegals voting, people on park benches voting, votes bought with cigarettes, black panthers patrolling outside polling places, and jt comes up with that same old BS.

------------------

Yes, it's the same old BS that the righties use to take away certain people's right to vote. It's the same old redistricting to keep the other side from winning. It's the same old trick of having the senate majority leader saying "block all appointments until after the next election". It's the same old BS that your side uses and you are too stupid or too blind to admit it.

Who is being kept from voting? How in the h*** can they stop anyone from voting? Illegals vote, the dead vote, people on park benches vote, people steal other's names and vote, black panthers stand unhindered and unchallenged outside voting places, so please explain to us how the h*** anyone is being kept from voting by the right? Your 'side' didn't win? Do you mean the unqualified pos in the white house right now didn't 'win'? Well, you may have something there. You freaking dems don't think anyone besides you and your foreign supporters should be represented. That's why all of you need to be tossed out of politics.

When I got old enough to vote, I went to the voter registration office. I showed a state or government document (drivers license, birth certificate, military id, etc) and proof of address. I was then given a voter id card. When I voted, I would show the card and vote.

Illegal voting is not a problem, but certain people of one party decided to make it harder for some to vote and called for a picture ID. In some states, it is not easy to get a state issued picture ID.

In a small town, (app 700 population) a life long resident and WWII POW, had no picture ID and could not vote. There was no question of identity. Of course, he would have voted for the other side.

Nice dodge.  You typed a confused mess and instead of correcting it or acknowledging that it is a confused mess, you barfed out a generalization and then tried to make it seem that I did not "understand" the confused imbrogliate mess of a sentence you wrote, namely:

 

"Yes, keeping illegal aliens are kept from voting."

 

You DO need to type more slowly so that you do not create such nonsensical sentences in your future efforts.

 

Use simple  or complicated words as you choose, but organize them in some sensible and literate fashion.

Then what would YOU do? You'd die if you couldn't peck at typos. Maybe you should start with your own.

You display your abject ignorance. There really is a difference between typos and sentence structure, but I suppose someone like you, in your eager and desperate rush to claim a "gotcha," is blind to such basic concepts as that.  Pitifully incompetent!

A sincere "Christian" should be EXCEPTIONAL. It should impel one to something more noble than the excesses of hatred & bigotry that you show on this forum.

As there was no internal control to verify that a person was who they claimed to be, your statement that illegal voting is not present is an opinion, at best, not a verified fact. 

 

In defense, you present one person denied a vote (he could have filed a vote to be verified later).

Dire, if you are throwing that at me, I entered the exact way that I first got to vote. Again, go to the registers office, show Id and proof of address and get a voters card. When you go to vote, go to the correct place, show your card and vote. You can't seem to grasp that concept.

Before the right wing picture ID, how many cases of voter fraud was there nationwide?

jt-As others have said in other topics before, voter fraud is hard to prove-even when you can prove it. My own vote was compromised twice back in the 80's. One instance could have been a mistake because my brother and I have similar first names, and the poll worker was an elderly retired school teacher who had taught us both, so she could have confused us and crossed the wrong name off the list. The other instance was when my father was voting (we all had the same polling place) and the poll worker mentioned to my Dad that I had already been in to vote, to which my fathers response was that I was out of the country at the time, and my brother had already voted absentee. He asked to see the sign in sheet, and commented that couldn't have been my signature because it was too neat. He then recalled a conversation he had at the mall with an old "get out the vote" crony of both Folsom and Wallace-who at this point in history (the Guy Hunt days) was still very active in both the State and Lauderdale county Democrat parties. Now, these old "get out the vote" guys (of both parties-granted) are too well known to cast the fraudulent votes themselves-but if they can find "unused" votes, they will send in some non-descript ringer to cast said votes. This particular individual was also known to volunteer with the "free cheese and butter program" at several different distribution locations, and grab both his "share" and as much undistributed commodities as he could get hold of and then go around trying to sell it. Also jt, you have made reference about how you originally registered to vote. You did so properly in the historical sense. Now there is "street corner" voter registration by volunteers for whomever and whatever organization at venues like rock concerts, things like First Fridays, etc. and while these volunteers may or may not have ill intent, if they are poorly trained they might not get the documentation needed or even write down the right name so to speak. Voter registration needs to be returned to the Court House, or political party headquarters only, so that if there is fraud in the registration process, there is accountability via criminal and civil penalties to all involved.

How did that make it harder for anyone to vote?
