What do felons have to do with the topic here? dixiegrrrrl Nov 2014 #13

The Moyers article doesn't match this post. simak Nov 2014 #21

I still hate the idea of felons losing the right to vote. F4lconF16 Nov 2014 #36

Voter suppression is one issue...but.... Sancho Nov 2014 #8

We lost. It's time to accept that. badtoworse Nov 2014 #9

It's time we accepted inconvenient facts - ones that DON'T involve surrendering. True Blue Door Nov 2014 #37

It's time we accepted inconvenient facts: I couldn't have said it better myself. badtoworse Nov 2014 #42

That's not an inconvenient fact, or a fact at all. That's absolute Vichy bullshit. True Blue Door Nov 2014 #43

OK, you've convinced me - it was stolen. badtoworse Nov 2014 #50

I didn't say it was stolen. I said the facts appear to be leaning in that direction. True Blue Door Nov 2014 #60

And here you are again telling members what to do. GGJohn Nov 2014 #56

The inconvenient fact is that you didn't read the Bill Moyers article. True Blue Door Nov 2014 #59

I did read the article, so I'll thank you to not tell me what I did or didn't do. GGJohn Nov 2014 #64

So you're here to express yourself, not accomplish anything? True Blue Door Nov 2014 #66

"Will happen"...you talk as if you aren't involved in the process. True Blue Door Nov 2014 #38

Nope, just the world-weary observation of someone who's been in the fight deutsey Nov 2014 #46

If you're world-weary, then take a break from politics. True Blue Door Nov 2014 #62

Right, I'm a scold because I don't buy into some mopey adolescent emo attitude. True Blue Door Nov 2014 #81

This isn't about you, or me. True Blue Door Nov 2014 #83

Be real. Nothing will happen. Katashi_itto Nov 2014 #11

Your comment is of zero value. True Blue Door Nov 2014 #39

Tough, it's the truth. Katashi_itto Nov 2014 #53

No, it's you doing nothing and demanding that others do nothing too. True Blue Door Nov 2014 #61

Got a link that she is demanding that others do nothing? GGJohn Nov 2014 #71

Then go ahead and do something. I am not stopping you. Katashi_itto Nov 2014 #76

Indeed, you are not stopping me. Just annoying me. True Blue Door Nov 2014 #79

Tough, I simply have a more realistic view of things. Katashi_itto Nov 2014 #84

No, you don't. True Blue Door Nov 2014 #85

Every state has rules that govern who can vote. Calista241 Nov 2014 #19

The issue isn't those rules, it's how those rules were enforced el_bryanto Nov 2014 #28

You need to collect the names of actual people who were incorrectly disenfranchised muriel_volestrangler Nov 2014 #22

About half of DU would want to do something about it. Jamastiene Nov 2014 #23

Interesting theory, GGJohn Nov 2014 #68

Don't know marions ghost Nov 2014 #74

But how does the Democrats "stopping work" stop anything? onenote Nov 2014 #69

That's the problem-- marions ghost Nov 2014 #72

It is a problem. But an even bigger problem is people choosing not to vote onenote Nov 2014 #75

When it comes down to these critical counts marions ghost Nov 2014 #77

Ultimately it is still all about getting people to want to vote. onenote Nov 2014 #86
