“Experts say felons are disproportionately black and, if they can be found, more likely to be Obama backers. This provides a huge potential; about 1.1 million felons in Florida were ineligible to vote in 2004, according to a 2006 book by sociologists Jeff Manza and Christopher Uggen.”
“Ex-offenders are “just everywhere,” said Jocelyn Travis, who heads the Ohio NAACP’s voter outreach program. “People who have a felony or criminal background are throughout our community, and they don’t realize that they have the right to vote.”
This two statements alone demonstrate how far we’ve fallen.
Welcome to the United States of America circa 2008. Terrific, Black felons deciding who governs the worlds most powerful nation. Register felons!!…this speaks so highly of the democratic party and the naacp. How completely pathetic!
Our democratic leaders are trying to solicit votes from felons in order to secure a victory.
And we sit and type away on our keyboards as our great nation is taken away from us.
The joys of diversity.
The joys of doing nothing.
