16. This is how dictators take over. You do something for the "right
reason", but you walk on the Constitution while you're doing it. Doesn't matter if the Democrats wanted to get on with it and show how united they were. They walked on the rights of the voters and African Americans. Especially when the Supreme Court used the same reason to put Bush in office that they used to support African American votes. Someone should have stood up for them.

Same thing with the Patriot Act. Most Americans are willing to shoot the Constitution for more security. That should have been everyone's first hint Bush was a traitor. The Consitution is good for over 200 years but under Bush it's now out of date??? No. The population should have been in the streets asking for impeachment at that point. But most people don't understand what happened.
