Kennedy brings up racism in voting disenfranchisement |
|
and it's about time!
We need to frame this debate, at least in part, by insisting that racism is one reason so many Democrats were disenfranchised.
Let the thugs scurry around trying to deny that!

4. Racism : To most white voters is a Chicken Little issue |
|
I disagree with that and I'm white myself but I dont think we win by making it a race issue, we have to make it a universal issue. Partisans should not have the ability to mess with elections.
