    How the heck did they vote back in in the 1800?s when most of the people lived in rural areas?


    Hance the electoral vote...that's why it was set up, so that each state could send the representative to represent what the state in general would vote and those Representatives would vote as the people in the state probably would.

    Some people would argue the electoral vote is obsolete now that everybody can vote on election Day and have their voice heard on that day.

    But as we have seen through this and past elections that liberals aren't smart enough to have there voices heard on election Day.

    So, the electoral votes aren't obsolete. But only because the Liberals aren't smart enough to know how to vote on election Day

    Was taught this wives tale when in grammer school, though the Constitution is very clear.

    The Electoral College is designed to preserve the power of the individual states by specifically suppressing the voting power of the larger states and increasing the voting power of the smaller states.

    It reflects the total make up of Congress (House + Senate) by balancing voting power with a significant deference to State borders. It has nothing to do with any difficulty of an individual voter getting to a polling place.

    This power is also recognized and enhanced by the last line of Article 5 of the US Constitution which states that no Amendment to the Constitution can be passed that deprives any State (without its consent) 'Equal Suffrage in the Senate'.

    Such witty intelligent retorts.

    I'm sure one of you bozo's can come along and dissect my speech line by line-word by word-definition by definition and mis represent what I said.

    If you could comprehend sentences and concepts we would not be in this predicament in the first place. So just go join the rest of the Dumb Masses, tell your lies to somebody who believes you.

    It scares you that people are waking up to your agenda eh?


    The best you have come up with, so far, has been insults and name calling.

    Your first mistake was saying that people, soldiers in this case, are property. That was insulting at a very basic level.

    I am not misrepresenting anything. Your words are here, in black and white, for all to see.

    FWIW, that was the only part of your OP that bothered me enough to reply. Well, the 'telepathy' thing was a bit over the top, too. But, I suspect that was a bit of humour.






    It may be insulting to those thin skinned, but nevertheless is true maggot. I did not make up the term GI (government issue).

    AS far as the telepathy, it will be a reality before you know it. The thought police are coming for you, you better get your tin foil hat on. [;)]

    I'm a GI and can't get to the polls to vote.

    Awe poor baby, you're doing such a fine job protecting us that you can mail it in.

    I'm civilian and working out of country, and can't get to the polls to vote.
    Here, mail it in poor baby.

    Oh, I have to work, and my boss is a meany.
    We'll pass a law that says your boss must let you go vote.

    Oh, I'm to drunk and stoned, and can't get to the polls
    No problem, we'll mail you your ballot and you can mail it in to us poor baby.

    Oh my vote got lost in the mail.
    Poor baby, we'll just extend the voting until Christmas so all votes are counted.

    It all started with the most honorable of intentions. And that is why we are here today. So sure, I'm crass and insensitive and get your blood boiling. The point is, NO FRIGGEN EXCUSES and we wouldn't be here today.

    And yes, at least when I served, you were property of the military. And the conditions at times were worse than on the plantation. Some times were great too. So if you got a problem being property, don't join the service.

    If you want someone to explain it to you so your feelings don't get hurt, you'll have to ask somebody else. Maybe you can ask that Manning freak, he's sensitive and knows all about it. [xx(][xx(][xx(]

    I don't remember anywhere in the constitution where special accommodations have to be made.


    You're going to have to try a lot harder than that to hurt my feelings.

    As I said before, some sort of psychosis. Good luck with it.


    This is exactly a libturd retort. You think I'm trying to "hurt your feelings", when just educating you. Then make inane referral to psychological problems because you and your shrink can't wrap your head around the truth.

    So sad.

    If you have issue with the content other than your "feelings got hurt", I'll listen. Otherwise I will recommend you get a new shrink, not the one from the back pages of some liberal swill magazine. [;)]

    Looks like I may have made it in for this meltdown.

    Seems to be a drug induces psychosis of some sort. [:D]


    LOOKIE at you, still pandering your nutjob defense LOL. When logic escapes you, fall back on your own mental health issues.

    Why not stick to the facts and discuss it like a man?

    Because you are not a man, go find your safespace cornfake.

    That is pretty much how I understand it.

    The big cities are the mob, and they would be able to vote to take your land away.

    This is to the point I make too, about voting yourself a raise. (GI's included)

    The question every person should ask at the poll is, "What can I do for my country?" Our military personnel are giving, and if asked to preserve the sanctity of the vote, I have no problem with that as former military. If that means I give up my vote to preserve the rights of the other legitimate voters, I gladly will do so. Or I can try and get leave for the election and go vote. Military is just temporary for most.

    And, if the loophole of mail in ballots is the problem, then it needs to be addressed. And if that means doing away with the mail in ballot, I could not ask for a better outcome.

    So computer voting is next. It's already being worked on. It will pass in more liberal areas. The floodgates to fraud open wider.

    I want to vote telepathically, like sci fi. I'll be old and infirm, laying in a 98.6 degree solution of amino acids to keep my brain alive. I want that right to vote too[:D] What could possibly go wrong?

    Don, you made mention that I wasn't exactly the nicest in a post. When they learn to be adults, maybe I will treat them as such. [V]

    Mag00, Why are you so hung up on the military voting. I voted when I was in but I doubt 15 guys voted in my Company of.


    If you want to suppress the vote for people I can see some better candidates than the military.

    How about welfare recipients, People with mental problems like my Dad with Dementia(He could have voted easy), Felons, Child molesters.

    Hell I could make a good case to not let anyone over the age of 85 vote or anyone in some form of school.

    Anyone who belongs to a terrorist organization like: BLM, Proud Boys, MS-13, Crips/Bloods/Latin Kings, the KKK...............and so on.



    I am not one of those Veterans who goes around with a hat on and getting all the freebees I can.

    If someone thanks me for my service I tell them you paid for it I should thank you. The Army probably spent 5 million bucks on me in the 25 years I was in.

    I was and am still proud I was a professional soldier for 25 years. I never felt I was owned by the US Government any more than any Government employee is. I was doing a service for this country, I was paid for it and I enjoyed just about every day of it, That includes 7 combat tours(Urgent Fury, Just Cause, OEFx3, OIFx4) so I was not just sitting on my ass drinking coffee and shooting the sh-t with a bunch of lifers[:0]

    You clearly have issues. Any normal person reading your replies can see it.

    All I have seen from you are emotional responses, not a lick of logic you insist is in your posts.

    I do my damnedest to avoid internet pissing contests, so you can win this one and I am out.
