Election integrity is not racist. Voter ID laws have been challenged because liberal Democrats deem them racist. I guess that's because they see blacks as being incapable of acquiring some kind of government-issued identification. Interesting enough is the fact that I've never heard of a challenge to other ID requirements as racist, such as those: ... MORE

Walter E Williams: Destroying Your Vote
Election integrity is not racist. Voter ID laws have been challenged because liberal Democrats deem them racist. I guess that's because they see blacks as being incapable of acquiring some kind of government-issued identification. Interesting enough is the fact that I've never heard of a challenge to other ID requirements as racist, such as those: ... MOREAre Elections Held For The Purpose Of Venting Emotions?
by Thomas Sowell. Why have elections? In a country with more than 300 million people, it is remarkable how obsessed the media have become with just one — Donald Trump. What is even more remarkable is that, after six years of repeated disasters, both domestically and internationally, under a glib egomaniac in the White House, so many potential ... MOREWalter E Williams: Some Odds And Ends
Wise observations. Occasionally, I wonder whether I'm alone in some of my wonderings. Look at the claim that conservatives or Republicans have launched a war on women as a part of their overall mean-spirited agenda. In the case of mistreatment of women — or of anyone else — assault, rape and murder are about as horrible as it gets. ... MOREShane Goldmacher: Rand Paul’s Big, Risky Bet on Youth
Can appeal to the young win with the Grand OLD Party. When Sen. Rand Paul
makes his first visit to Iowa as an official presidential candidate
next month, he will head to the campus of the University of Iowa. The
location—one of the state's biggest liberal strongholds—seems unusual
for a Republican, but Paul is headed there in the hopes ... MOREJohn Stossel - Democratic Delusions
Politics vs markets. When the Berlin Wall came down 25 years ago this week, people in the Soviet Bloc gained something even more valuable than a right to vote: a free market. Democracy is definitely better than taking orders from Communist dictators. But real freedom means doing what you choose as an individual, not waiting for the rest of ... MORE

by Kelsie Paige. Voters may room in prison for the violent. California just voted to release all their drug prisoners and will no longer allow felony convictions for drugs! Wow and Wow! Peace, Love and NeverGetBusted. California approved a major shift against mass incarceration on Tuesday in a vote that could lead to the ... MOREWith a Big GOP Wave, Americans Wisely Voted for Gridlock
by J.D. Tuccille. On election night, TV talking heads watching the Republican wave/surge/tidal flow across the country earnestly looked at each other and asked if the new Republican Senate majority can work with the president and overcome the gridlock that has so turned off voters. Umm...what? Yeah, I know Americans keep telling ... MOREThomas Sowell: Voter Fraud And Voter I.D.
Democrats keep lying to blacks. One of the biggest voter frauds may be the idea promoted by Attorney General Eric Holder and others that there is no voter fraud, that laws requiring voters to have a photo identification are just attempts to suppress black voting. Reporter John Fund has written three books on voter fraud and a recent survey ... MOREVoting Republican Is The Smart Choice For Libertarians
by Grover Norquist. You only have one vote. How best to use it to advance
liberty? A libertarian preparing to vote in a House or Senate race
this November that features three candidates, a Republican, a
Democrat and a Libertarian must make a decision. Will voting for the Libertarian candidate add one more vote
for a losing candidate that may ... MOREJohn Stossel: Incumbents Always Win
Politicians and their stranglehold on power. I'm told that the public is "angry" at today's politicians. Eighty-two percent disapprove of the job Congress is doing. So will Tuesday's election bring a big shakeup? No. Congressional reelection rates never drop below 85 percent. The last big "wave" election was 1994, when Democrats lost control ... MOREThomas Sowell: Random Thoughts On The Passing Scene
Insights derived from wisdom. The great boxing champion Joe Louis once said about one of his opponents, who was known for his speed: "He can run but he can't hide." In the Congressional elections this year, many Democrats are running away from Barack Obama, but they can't hide their record of voting for Obama's agenda more than 90 percent ... MOREThe People Now Realize: America Is Out Of Control
by Wynton Hall. A devastating new Politico poll reveals voters believe America has spun off its axis and is "out of control." "An overwhelming majority of voters in the most competitive 2014 elections say it feels as if events in the United States are 'out of control' and expressed mounting alarm about terrorism, anxiety about Ebola and harsh skepticism ... MOREDear Barack Obama: You Suck. Love, The Voters
by J.D. Tuccille. Americans with their eyes on national politics are more likely to intend their midterm votes as messages of opposition to President Barack Obama than as support, according to Gallup. Almost a third of voters, at 32 percent, are using their ballots as a Bronx cheer for the White House, compared to the 20 percent sending love ... MOREThomas Sowell: Irresponsible Choices
So now we want the first woman president? The latest Gallup poll indicates that 14 percent of the people "moderately disapprove" of Barack Obama's performance as president and 39 percent "strongly disapprove." Since Obama won two presidential elections, chances are that some of those who now "strongly disapprove" of what he ... MORE
