BEING HONEST ABOUT THE VOTING RIGHTS ACT
By Ted Baiamonte Comments: bje1000@aol.com (08/12/05)
To American liberals, the Voting Rights Act of 1964 is a very sacred cornerstone of the Civil Rights Movement. It is in the news a lot these days because it is coming up for renewal. Those who opposed it then were branded as racist, and it was largely a true charge, but today those who oppose it or who are indifferent to it are not easily branded as racist, in fact they are being very rational. To be sure, from a technical point of view, the “Act” was successful. Millions more voted and almost 7000 new Black office holders won elections immediately thereafter.
But, at almost the same time the Civil Rights Movement took hold in America, Black culture began to disintegrate almost as if a genocide were taking place. The Black family disappeared, meaning most kids grew up in poverty and in broken homes where love was a rare commodity, and more Black men went to prison than to college. In fact, Blacks are 12% of the population and 52% of the prison population despite living in a nation far richer then it was prior to the sacred Civil Rights Movement. It was, in large part, a self inflicted near-genocide so no one was held responsible, let alone punished; in fact the civil rights mentality retains a perverse popularity among liberals to this day. They must figure that good intentions count more than the near-genocidal results? Rational folks learned from all this what the Germans learned in the 1930’s, i.e., being able to vote does not mean you’re intelligent enough to vote for the right person.
Today the voting rights issue is primarily about whether Blacks, and the rest of us, need to have picture ID’s to qualify to vote. The center of the controversy is in Georgia where, to allay fears over past racism, the State has agreed to go to peoples’ homes to give them ID’s so they won’t have to worry about not having them in time to vote. The abject stupidity here is monumental. Blacks and their liberal friends fear the gov’t will prevent them from voting; yet when they do vote they unanimously vote for bigger more powerful gov’t with, in theory, the power to do what ever it wants, including impose stricter voter qualifications.
Secondly, as our founders understood Democracy, a picture ID was not nearly enough to qualify one to vote. The first qualification was always intelligence; it was defined, however vaguely, by age. For some reason people like Thomas Jefferson thought the idea of soliciting the political wisdom of a 10 year old in a voting booth did not make sense. But, Democrats from Andrew Jackson forward have sought to sell suffrage for votes. We have gotten to a point where intelligence, and even literacy, do not matter the slightest bit. Today the question is not if you have the intelligence to vote but merely if you have the ID to vote. With the “make every vote count initiative” from Hillary Clinton the Democrats even want every convicted felon to vote too (criminals are, surprise, 95% Democrats) , and this as they constantly scream ever louder at how all the dumb “red state” yahoos voted for Bush?
The sickeningly obvious truth here is that if we want an intelligent President and Congress we will need intelligent voters to elect them. A uniform national literacy test that is, race, gender, age, and financially neutral is the obvious solution. Then, an election would be an intelligent democratic exercise rather than a popularity contest among illiterates fought with handshakes and 30 second TV commercials. Of course, the Democrats object. If they can get elected with votes from criminals, illiterates, and those selling their votes for entitlement money, well, that’s a good enough democracy for a modern Democrat.
Yes, the Democratic strategy is slowly subverting our democracy, but, more importantly, it is an immediate threat to national security. Our Southern border remains wide open to nuclear, biological, and chemical, terrorists. Why? Because the Democrats profit most electorally from the constituency that wants the border open. It’s just that simple: votes and the power that comes from them matter more than anything to a Democrat.

The United States Is Being Overthrown By Our Politicians - "A silent but all-reaching coup is taking place within the
United States. This coup is not being directed by bomb-laden Muslim terrorists, nor will it ever be covered by the mainstream media.
The seditious act is being carried out by our very own elected officials, with President Bush leading the insurrection."
"The FDA has conveniently used the excuse of looking out for consumer safety to increase their perverse regulatory power,
undermine free speech, disrupt commerce, and generally get in the way of helping people improve their health. The "half-truth" of
the safety issue is used as a ploy to reduce the rights of Americans, one freedom at a time. Once again, the FDA is seeking more
police power to intimidate supplement companies. This is one step in an overall FDA master plan to eliminate therapeutic nutritional
supplements from the free market. Those who lose are the American public." The FDA - A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing
