1. Imagine an election in a third-world country in which the self-declared
winner was the son of the former prime minister -- and imagine that the
former prime minister was himself the former head of that nation's secret
police>>>>
Not the parrallel here at all except for ballot box stuffing is also common
in heavy Democrat districts AND third world countries. In no other country in
the world is there a massive outbreak of voters who cant follow arrows. As
for thesecret police we have learned that we can actually have a President
who actually has one (according to his closest advisor) and no one seems to
mind. We are told that to complain about such secret police praetorian guards
makes one the member of some kind of "conspiracy".
<<<2. Imagine that the self-declared winner lost the popular vote, but won
based on some old colonial holdover from the nation's pre-democracy past.>>>
There are no electoral colleges anywhere else in the world because everywhere
else the Government is able to pay off the masses which are uneducated and
prey to scare tactics and payola for votes, you know like in New York,
Florida, California and the industrial midwest.
<<< 3. Imagine that the self-declared winner's "victory" turned on disputed
votes cast in a province governed by his brother.>>>
The only one disputing the votes in Florida are the same ones who planted the
illegal ballots. You know Bob Schlossberg (Dem-Fla) who was caught by the
police with the 'votomatic' in his car and the woman in charge of the hand
count who spoke at a rally and said to the crowd "I'll go to jail before I'll
let Al Gore lose".
<<<4. Imagine that the poorly drafted ballots of one district - a district
heavily favoring the self-declared winner's opponent -- led thousands of
voters to vote for the wrong candidate.>>>
In foreign countries are usually hand written by the voters so as to avoid
tampering but in Democratic districts in America the Democrats actually
design the ballots that they then can declare "illegal" not before, but
after, the election.. No one would dare try to do that in a third world
country. The media in any third world country would see right through such a
patently transparent scheem.
<<< 5. Imagine that members of that nation's most despised caste of former
slaves, fearing for their lives/livelihoods, turned out in record numbers to
vote in near-universal opposition to the self-declared winner's candidacy.>>>
At least we now know that Paul Begala was the author of this with a little
help from Jessie. It goes without saying that in all the other countries
[except for the one in which the same guys who created the electoral college
also freed the slaves] those who used to be slaves would favor the side that
actually placed the decendants of the slaves in prominent positions in the
administration as opposed to the other side which only employs the demagogues
to incite racial animosity as opposed to giving them real political positions
of power. .
<<<6. Imagine that hundreds of members of that most-despised caste were
intercepted on their way to the polls by state police, operating under the
authority of the self-declared winner's brother.>>>
Yes this same group that got confused by the arrow imagined alot of other
things perhaps. As the Tawana Brawley incident exposed, some of the leaders
are prone to making extravagant claims and the use of blatant "race card" TV
Spots already revealed their tendency to employ any incendiary accusation
just to get the medias attention. They also call such things as a "butterfly
ballot" designed by their own people as "stealing their dignity and civil
rights" which devalues subsequent claims of this nature so I wouldnt
automatically assume that they are actually true unless of course we find a
group of bad guys with a trunk full of road arrows used to mislead the voters
by pointing them in the actual direction of the polling places which of
course would cause them to go in the opposite direction.
<<<7. Imagine that six million people voted in the disputed province, and
that the self-declared winner's "lead" was only 327 votes -- fewer,
certainly, than the vote-counting machines' margin of error.>>>
I would have to think that it would be most important to elect the only one
of the two candidates who promised to work together and reach across the
aisle as opposed to the other who besides inciting hate in their followers
promised vigorously to "fight fight fight" everybody and everything everyday.
It would be critical to have a leader who reaches out without having a weapon
in his hand. Votes can be close and thereby both sides interests would have
to be addressed. Ity would be crucial to keep the one who divides with hate
out of any future position of real power unless the goal was to purposely
divide the country and its people.
<<<8. Imagine that the self-declared winner and his political party opposed
a
more careful, by-hand inspection and re-counting of the ballots in the
disputed province, or in its most hotly disputed district.>>>
Once the people involved demonstrate that they are willing to manipulate the
hand count, evidence appears that ballots are being twisted to create votes
that werent actually there, mysterious chads appearing on the floor of the
polling place that no one knows where they came from and one of them gets
caught with a 'votomatic' in the trunk of their car then one must take
extraordinary measures (like following the law to the letter) to insure that
many more peoples votes arent lost through sabotage and subterfuge for
blatantly political purposes like stacking the courts.
<<<9. Imagine that the self-declared winner was himself a governor of a
major
province, and that his province had the worst human-rights record of any
province in his nation, and actually led the nation in executions.>>>
There are some questionable studies done by prejudiced think tanks populated
by political ideologues who will concoct a study that ignores all kinds of
factual evidence in the interest of influencing the uninformed so such
statistical claims are frequently offset by many other studies that
demonstrate the opposite such as those cities with the strictest gun control
laws are among the leaders in violent crime such as Washington D/C. and New
York City, Toledo Ohio, Trenton new jersey etc thereby making the citizens of
those places far more apt to suffer from violent crime. As for the
executions; the most important thing in this case is that whoever is elected
carries out the "will of the people" who created the law as opposed to lying
to get into office and then failing to carry out the "will of the people".
It would also be of note that the opposing political party, the one raising
the issue now, was in fact the leader of the province when the record as
stated was much worse. Hence the current provincial leader actually has made
things better perhaps.
<<<10. Imagine that a major campaign promise of the self-declared winner was
to
appoint like-minded human-rights violators to lifetime positions on the high
court of that nation. >>
Lets leave the former Governort of Arkansas out of this. "Get those 2000 FBI
files over here into the hands of our political operatives and "Lets get our
people in there".Have we set up that separate and illegal e-mail system yet ?"
