Care to address the question I asked you? If you hate the Constitution , what should be the law of the land?
No I do not.

Just know this; Your beloved document is full of inconsistencies and bullshyt written by then slaveowners and those who oppressed women and minorities. Hence the term AMENDMENT. It is not some perfect slice of history without flaw. So stop treating it like it is.

not YET,'mudd, not yet. five years ago, I bet u would have been saying the same about 'ain't nobody forcing any body to buy HC ins, so, go piss up a rope!'; ten yrs ago it would have been smoking any where out doors; and, 20 yrs ago it would have been either seat belts or car seats!
just exactly HOW MANY examples of tyranny do u need before u see the 800 lb GREEN gorilla coming in the back door?
if u, personally, are NOT a Progressive, then u'd better educate urself quickly about their history and their ideas RE: Utopia.
remember M. Obama's words, "Barack doesn't want any body NOT working...". now, couple those with GB Shaw's dream of folks going before a 'committee' and explaining 'their worth' to society, or developing a 'humane gas'!
ideas and movements NEVER die, they just go 'underground' and re-surface as something else until the moment is 'right'. thank god, the Prog SCUM showed their hand too soon, again.
u are the only that can educate urself... if u so choose. maybe u ARE part of the problem and not the solution?
pity...

how's this: no one who canNOT get theirself registered, locate their polling place and get there during the appointed hours, should be allowed the priviledge and HONOR of voting. participating in the American sport of maintaing a Republican form of govt shud require that MINIMUM amount of INDIVIDUAL effort, IMO.
all this other 'assistance rendering' is simply done to influence voters and outcomes. informed and politically aware people, the type of voters a thriving Republic demands, will get themselves registered and get themselves to the polls AND make their own choices.
the people that fail to even get themselves registered also fail to get themselves politically educated and are simply the tools of the last Party or candidate that renders them assistance during the voting process. that is why pol parties and candidates offer such assistance. and that is why the pol party(s) and candidates with the least popular platforms do the MOST assisting. it is simply to bolster their vote totals using the easiest and oldest voter manipulation techniques known.

Perhaps you should read the 15th Amendment and try this post again. It is a RIGHT.

"The right of U.S. citizens to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.”

Does that sound “”very conditional” to you? Stop talking. You prove with every word just how uneducated you really are. Goodnight.

try voting in a state with a valid phote ID law WITHOUT one and see how far 'race, colour, etc...' gets u, bright boy. the 15th is VERY specific, is it not?
however, u may enter any church u want, say practically any BS u want (and have)... those ARE Rights.
since day one, the States have had control of voter's rights and conditions. even as colonies, some States had very liberal voter eligibilty standards, including free blacks and Indians. u might want to look such things up before u go running ur mouth about the limitations the Founders imposed.
and, the next time u bring up slavery, remember, even some free blacks OWNED slaves, and prospered in the pre-Civil War South. did I mention the black Rebel soldiers? history's dirty little secrets, eh?
anyway, our Const has EVOLVED from those 'backwards' days. today, entitlement slavery can and is applied to all colours and creeds of all Americans. I guess one could call that, ahem, PROGRESS...

I believe you’ve misunderstood my post. My intent is to show that the few Black people that may have voted for Obama simply because he’s Black would have easily been outnumbered by the whites that voted for McCain because he’s NOT BLACK. Thus canceling out any real effect by those few.
I hope that makes sense.
The 2008 election did not vary from past elections, where an average of 9% of voters cross tickets and vote for the other party. If what you said was true, we would have seen an increase in Dems voting Republican. It didn't happen. This is purely biased conjecture on your part.

The vote was on party lines, with Independents going Dem.

But, but, but what happened to this sentiment?

BTW, you can stick that Constitution somewhere the sun doesn’t shine.
You want the protections it affords but don't want the limits it imposes. I see now. You just want to ignore the parts that are inconvenient for your agenda. You know what you are advocating is pretty stupid?

BARRACK OBAMA: politics meant nothing to Samuel L. Jackson because the "Pulp Fiction" star only voted for the president for one reason and one reason only ... because he's black.

In an interview with Ebony magazine, Jackson explained, "I voted for Barack because he was black.'Cuz that's why other folks vote for other people — because they look like them ... That's American politics, pure and simple.[Obama's] message didn't mean [bleep] to me."

Jackson then went on to drop the N-word several times when discussing Obama, telling the mag, "When it comes down to it, they wouldn't have elected a [bleep]. Because, what's a [bleep]? A [bleep] is scary. Obama ain't scary at all.[Bleeps] don't have beers at the White House.[Bleeps] don't let some white dude, while you in the middle of a speech, call [him] a liar. A [bleep] would have stopped the meeting right there and said,‘Who the [bleep] said that?' I hope Obama gets scary in the next four years,'cuz he ain't gotta worry about getting re-elected."

Connedservatives hysterically arguing for restrictions on voting... and it is easy to see why...

A full turnout would ensure that the GOP could never win a national election. They know this. Hence the manipulations to destroy ballots in black and Jewish precincts in Florida in 2000.

How ironic (not to mention obscene) for a Bush-voting connedservative to be preaching about the Constitution as we live under the Patriot Act. But never mind that... the Constitution was written so that Republicans could manipulate the electoral process to reduce the numbers of black voters, right?

TURN OFF FAUX NEWS, boy! It's destroying your brain cells!

Privately, Obama sees recovery 1-2 years off byPaul Bedard
Follow on Twitter:

The public President Obama, bubbly in his reelection campaigning about a recovering U.S. economy, isn’t as optimistic in private, telling a select few that it will likely take up to two years for any recovery to click in.

A letter provided to Washington Secrets from Obama to a long-unemployed Portland, Maine carpenter pulls back the curtain of economic hope to reveal the truth about the stagnant economy.“I won’t lie to you,” Obama penned in hand to Charles Oliver in October.“It will probably take another year or two to fully dig our way out of this hole.”
