The sad truth.
I want to let you know the only way the Humans will ever win any election. The problem is that our voices have been trapped inside a computer. All of this Red State Blue State crap is just a color code much like Black and White. The truth of the matter is that they don't even bother to count our votes. The Humans can't prove that there was fraud because there are two or three people in control of the central tabulators. there are a myriad of voting machines, From Butterfly ballots, Caterpillar ballots, hanging chads, and my personal favorite the Vapor Vote. The truth is that they don't even count the votes. All these machines are here to trick us in to thinking that our vote was counted.

States that allow recounts should the vote be close have no means of preforming a recount because it is impossible to visually inspect a vapor vote. Yet you can recount a paper ballot. There lies the disparity. The machines must be standardized. they must be independently audited, and I believe the votes should be totaled in front of a news camera in every precinct. Votes should not be able to leave the building in which they were cast at least until inauguration day. and the option to recount should belong to the citizens. With out these basic rights, any ruling party is free to rig every election.

The only way the Humans will ever win against the machine is if we take control of it. We must recognize as a population that if we can't prove our votes have been counted, and the people in control of the central tabulators refuse to prove our votes have been counted, then why on Earth would you give the government such blind faith?

I believe that this is the most important issue that has arisen from Y2K. In fact, this may very well be the most deadly Y2K Bug to ever hit our collective population. The fact that we the people can easily be tricked into thinking that we voted. Then our cries of obvious fraud are ignored by the Main Stream Media, as the rest of the population is lulled back to sleep by the legend of Scott Peterson. All news media is given a gag order not to mention even election reform (as in fix the machines). Consequently when there is fraud again in the next election, they will just say "Well you didn't speak up before the election so you must just be sore that your guy lost."

The problem with that statement is that "my guy" is the entire Human population. Thats right every one. The right to vote has been taken away from the entire population of America by the two or three people in control of the central tabulators. If your a Republican you must be happy that they voted the same way you thought you did, But what if in the next election it so happens you don't agree with those two or three people on the issue of who should lead our country, or our planet. What if the rest of the Humans also do not agree with those three people who control the central tabulators? Then will you demand investigation? How will you get it?

How can you inspect a Vapor Vote? (answer) you can't. only the person in control of the central tabulator can monitor the vapor votes as they are transfered to the central tabulator. Once at the central tabulator (a lap top running windows) the operator can change the totals to any he desires. As long as he does not let any cameras see him do it, there is no proof of the fraud that occurred.

If there is one issue that you focus on, it should be to standardize the voting machines. they must have voter verifiable paper trails. and non-partisan auditing. that is the only way the Humans will ever win.

4. Not only am I Human, but I am on our side.

The side of the Humans that is. I want us to win I really do. I don't want to be a slave to technology. I want every Human to be technology's master. After all, it does not take a rocket scientist to figure out that the vote was rigged again. Like wise it's a pretty sure bet that unless the machines are delt with, it will be rigged again the next time. When it comes down to it, the whole battle is Humans vs. Machine. I am a Human even though this computer makes me feel as if I were not.
