7. I'm sure that DU's MadFloridian would beg to differ
It is the public officials who are fighting fair elections who don't deserve to participate in democracy. In general, I think that felons right to vote should automatically be restored once they've done their time, but I wouldn't mind seeing some of the real crooks in Florida do time and permanently lose their right to vote.

They have removed enough checks and balances to "deliver the vote," folks.

And remember -- "the vote" means congress, state legislature, judges, construction contracts, school boards, local county supervisors, and indirectly, "delivering the vote" controls every aspect of your daily life, from the economy that drives your employment income to the potholes in your road system to the privatization of your water supply.
