If This Behavior is Tolerated We're Doomed
I've about decided Hillary Clinton must be a test from God to determine whether the United States of America deserves to continue as a legitimately free democracy or not.
Here's why I think this. For many years now Americans have been perturbed over vote counting, wondering whether their votes matter. For some reason that I cannot comprehend, we have tolerated the influx of rigged (or riggable) voting machines in virtually every county in the country. We've tolerated suspicious outcomes. We've also tolerated the abusive misuse of our military, which historically was deployed for the purpose of protecting our freedoms (including the right to vote) and now is being used for corporate profit, leaving me to wonder whether a lot of brave soldiers who laid down their lives for this country are now rolling in their graves. A lot of us have wondered why we've put up with all this abuse when so much is at stake. Now the Hillary Clinton machine is abusing our rights to such an extent that I believe if we tolerate it now, it's Game Over for our democracy.
First read the following, then tell me whether you are willing to tolerate this behavior - or whether you think it is perfectly legitimate. First, the primary vote count in New York was pure B.S. You thought Florida was bad during the Bush v. Gore race? God help us. Second, Hillary's campaign is now threatening to throw the rules out the window and go after Obama's voter-committed delegates. In other words, she is going to try to convince the delegates to defy the voters and throw their support to her. This really stinks.
Are we going to tolerate it?
