One More Day

One more day. A day we have to stop blatant attempts to suppress voters, and one more day before we can re-elect the President and get on with the business of healing this country. The big question is, will racism win out and will the Congress continue to stonewall all of the President's attempts to do good for the nation? Or will they finally shrug their shoulders and decide it's time to get on with the business of the USA?

And another question is, if it's incredibly close in Ohio, will we have the outcome by Wednesday morning? The Repubs have been known to steal Presidential elections, you know. That is the scariest part - that they won't take the loss well. So will they drag the inevitable out for days and weeks, and maybe even months?

In 2000 the election was decided by a partisan Supreme Court. Even though there is absolutely no authority given to them to do this in the Constitution. Same with the impeachment of Clinton. What exactly is a "high crime or misdemeanor"? The Founding Fathers gave examples: Treason, etc. So the whole escapade making Clinton's actions somehow worthy of an Impeachment was total conjecture. My point being that ours is far from being a perfect system. There is always room for improvement.

We must stop letting the Repubs make it up as they go along. But for now, let's get through this one more day.
