Who Represents the America We Want To Be?

They Booed

The President attended the World Series game recently.... He didn't like the results....There were no adoring crowds with MAGA HATS or people paid to wear them and carry signs to strategically make him look and feel popular... No. These were real people and they responded the way real people respond to him ..

They Booed!

Enough To Make Him Cry Again

If you are of a certain age, you remember a commercial about littering where a Native American man sees how we are littering his land and he sheds a tear...

Recently something occurred concerning Native American voting rights that would make that same Native American cry again..

This is disgraceful. "Since the U.S. Postal Service doesn’t provide residential mail delivery in remote areas, many members of North Dakota’s Native American tribes list their mailing addresses, like P.O. boxes, on their IDs." 

Politifact has taken issue with the generalization that Native Americans "were the last to get the right to vote", writing that, "That’s partially accurate, but the timeline of American voting rights is far less cut-and-dried than that statement might suggest. Native Americans in Utah were the last ethnic group to be recognized by both state and federal law as citizens with voting rights. But it wasn’t until the Voting Rights Act of 1965 that federal law more thoroughly addressed issues of voter discrimination for all people, giving underrepresented voters of many ethnicities the actual right and means to vote."

Politifact also adds that Native American residents without a PO Box in North Dakota CAN vote if they take additional steps before election day, however onerous. They write, "North Dakota’s law does pose obstacles for many tribal citizens who don’t have street addresses. However, through the work of voter rights advocates and officials with the Secretary of State’s office, there are ways that Native American voters who have PO boxes instead of residential street addresses will be able to vote. The law does not mean they are losing their right to vote altogether." 

This may be true...But it makes me wonder why it's always African-Americans, Latinos , Native Americans, Recent U.S. Citizens et al who always have to fight for their right as an American Citizen to vote, who are always having their ballots dropped from voter rolls...What are certain people afraid of?

For all of you people who claim your vote doesn't matter....Ponder this...If it doesn't, why are so many people trying to restrict it or just plain take it away??

Vote while you still can!
