10. When Obama was elected

I wondered how that could have happened, since so much had been revealed about "hacking the vote" with Republican-owned voting machines.

This ^ is ^ how ^ our ^ vote ^ has ^ already ^ been ^ taken ^ away; along with the whole Voter ID scam by Repukes.

After Obama's first year in office, seeing how most of his campaign promises were evaporating and the nation was being led down the same old
failed-policy road as it was before, I understood.

Don't get me wrong. I DO still vote myself; as I'm not to cynical as to believe that if the turn-out is massive enough, it can overcome hacking
the vote. which may help explain how Obama was elected <-- I'd like to believe this, but am not totally convinced of that either.
