American Blackout – Documentary on Voting Rights

I’m not sure how many, if any, of the readers of this blog actually watch these long videos I post from time to time, but my idea in doing so is that a single viewer is enough to justify posting them. This one here is especially important, as it covers something the corporate media would rather ignore. The disparity in Ohio when it came to the distribution of voting machines, is something that was covered everywhere, but since then it has become a figment of the nation’s imagination. What took place in Ohio is something that must be exposed at the highest level (looking at you Mr. Waxman), and prevented from happening in the future by there being federal laws in place that ultimately strip a state’s ability to run elections as if the United States was a third world authoritarian wasteland.

Cynthia McKinney, a former Congresswoman from Georgia, is also prominent in this film. I’ve taken her case over to Control Congress, a blog that is run by a Republican radio host in Georgia. John Konop is the host in question, and his blog is an absolute open forum where nothing is censored. I urge everyone to check out the video, and also the thread it prompted me to start over on John’s blog. Open primaries…there will be more to come on this topic from me, time permiting…btw, the Yankees are now 9 games behind after Boston’s 6 run 12th inning in Tampa Bay.
