What You Can Do

In the Conclusion of his recent book, WITNESS TO A CRIME, Richard Hayes Philips, author and true patriot, states:

     "Our elections are rigged. By means of voter suppression, ballot tampering, ballot box stuffing, failure to count all the votes, and wholesale alteration of the vote count, the winner can lose and the loser can win."

     "People should care that our elections are rigged. This is not a laughing matter. Our founders braved the guns of the Redcoats and the winter of Valley Forge, in order that we might establish this noble experiment of self-government."

     "Suffragettes like Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton devoted their lives to secure for women the right to vote, and did even live to see the fruits of their labors."

     "The freedom riders and civil rights workers in Mississippi and Alabama risked their lives, and some even gave their lives, in order that all citizens might have the right to vote, no matter what the color of their skin."

     "And now, when Jim Crow rears his ugly head in Ohio, shall we look the other way? What shall we say to our children? We're sorry. We did not bequeath unto you that which our ancestors
entrusted unto us. How soon we forget."

     "To the casual observer, and the wishful thinker, nothing much has changed. We still have three branches of government, and elections are held on a regular basis. But this is the appearance, not the reality. The executive power is not checked, the branches of government are not balanced, and the election results are not to be trusted."

It is a very Machiavelli world that we find ourselves living in today in the United States.
Many are now beginning to realize that if over 4,000 American troops have recently died to protect American freedom, then every patriotic American owes it to them to do our part here at home to do whatever it takes to stand up for the right of every American to be able to vote and to be able to verify that every vote was counted, and counted accurately. The successful efforts of some in the Republican party to not count the votes of many of the troops serving overseas is the ultimate insult to all Americans. The time for public silence and inaction has passed.

and join "citizen journalists" working together to strengthen our democracy by observing elections across our nation and then sharing the results.
