   Dred Scott was once the law of the land.  If it wasn't for that Hallmark   
   Supreme Court decision.  Abe Lincoln would not have been riled up enough to   
   into politics and run for office.     
      
   Abe ran for office as a anti-slavery candidate and won.  There was a 5 year   
   civil was where 100s of thousands of people.  History books say ~630K people   
   died.  History books also say that number is closer to 900K... The south   
   stopped counting and bodies drifted down the rivers.   
      
   Apparently the ruling was "Constitutional".  Great news, the anti-slavery   
   group won the war and freed the slaves kinda.   
      
   Dred Scott was still the law of the land so the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments   
   were needed to codify all the great work of the people at that time.   
      
   Ron,  I need some latitude to explain some of my thinking here, please!   
      
   In the mid 60s they passed laws allowing for redistricting (constitutional)   
   BUT (and a big one) the democrats argued that blacks would run for office and   
   the white Democrats wouldn't vote for them... so... Gerrymandering became the   
   focus for the Democrats.   
      
   LBJ, said during his presidency that he'll have the N-Word people voting   
   Democrat for the next 200 years.  It was what I mention above and a bunch of   
   other things that helped make that possible.   
      
   So...  We either have 140 years to go with LBJ's prediction or the Jig is up.   
      
   I argue the jig is up.   
      
   Historically the Democrats twist and turn things that are constitutional and   
   do whatever it takes to exploit the system to gain power.   
      
   They are sick and do not give a sh!t about anybody at all.   
      
   -=MY THOUGHTS=-   
      
   Something happened recently with the Supreme Court.  A decision was made with   
   Texas redistricting.  The Democrats argued that if Texas were able to go   
   through with this it would negatively affect black voters... Apparently Blacks   
   are monolithic voters and vote for Democrats only... I said that   
   sarcastically!!!   
      
   I'll paraphrase the portion of the decision that has radically changed with   
   the Supreme Court.   
      
   ...  States can redistrict and the assumption should be made that the State   
   acted in good faith when doing so, even if blacks and minorities are   
   negatively affected.  <---- Important!!!   
      
   This exact paraphrase is what has changed (GRIN) in the Courts thinking.   
      
   Prior to Joe Biden I think the courts would have sided with the Democrats.     
      
   Today the courts have seen the Democrats working their magic buy squeezing TF   
   out of things to gain power.  Its sick how they do this.  They don't care   
   about their constituents and they openly hate the country and want to see it   
   fail.   
      
   Trump has had to petition the courts to make emergency decisions to help fight   
   off the Democrats and their Lawfare.   
      
   The Supreme Court interprets the law as it relates to the Constitution.   
      
   Back in the 60s when white Democrats wouldn't vote for a black Democrats if   
   their life depended on it...  60 years later the country is in a different   
   place and the courts said... The assumption should be that the legislators   
   acted in good faith even though minorities are affected negatively.   
      
   I think the voter rights act of the 60s will or is soon to be moot with courts   
   that think this way.   
      
   Having said that...  We know what the constitution says about elections... I   
   say that congress can add some oversight and regulations to the mix.   
      
   For example...   
      
   It's election day not election 6 months.   
      
   Voter roles need to be cleaned up, dead people, illegals and people who have   
   moved out of the area need to be deleted from the rolls.   
      
   If there are mail in ballots they need to be requested by the individual and   
   not just randomly sent out.    
      
   FOR ME... If my ballot is not at the site by 4PM on election day it does not   
   get counted.  I have to prove who I am and my signature has to match the one   
   on file for it to be counted as well.   
      
   If I'm in the country I hand deliver it to the elections office because there   
   are no unattended voting boxes to drop it off at... This is Florida and not   
   N.Y.   
      
   No machine counting and paper ballots on special paper that can be   
   differentiated from the fraudulent ballots.   
      
   Voter ID and proof that you are a citizen.   
      
   This is important... If there is a challenge it needs to be dealt with   
   publicly and thoroughly so that "The People" are satisfied that the Democrats   
   haven't found an other way to squeeze the F*ck out of the system.   
      
   None of what I said is in the constitution...  But these are nice things they   
   can add to assure the voters the election was fair and administered well.   
      
   If your state is messed up you can move.  I know Michigan is not as bad as New   
   York... BUT if it falls you can move.    
      
   And if you move... People in Red States will welcome you in with open arms.   
      
   The Democrats take a beautiful and well thought out document like the   
   Constitution.  The founding fathers had no way to predict what the Democrats   
   would do to the system.   
      
   Things within a Republic sometimes takes time to work its way though.  There   
   are checks and balances and processes needed.   
      
   That's about it.   
      
   Ohhh... I did read your entire message... I just emptied my clip on this one   
   topic.
