My dad was a Republican Committeeman and he regarded his job as interacting with his counterpart to recruit workers to provide free and fair elections. This was in the era of paper ballots, one day elections, and little old ladies from both parties counting the ballots before they went home. This is my standard and the one I grew up with and believe we should return to.

Obama brought Chicago machine politics to the national level.

expecting socialist democrats to cooperage on "free and fair elections" is naive.

Chicago gets the credit, but it’s not really much different than Philly or Pittsburgh. My uncle (mother’s brother-in-law) was a Democrat Committeeman in Pennsylvania at the same time my father and he were good friends, had commuted to work at an anti-aircraft gun factory together during WWII, and laughed about a lot of politics at family gatherings.

Dude I’m talking ideals in the previous post, but I have been around politics since the late 50s or early 60s and have seen it all. I have driven the Republican faithful with sure votes to the polls to vote and shook hands with Tricky Dick Nixon in his plane (a DC-9) as a very young man. Ever hear of dollar and a swaller as the price of a vote on election day? It used to be the standard price in Southern WV, rural Kentucky, and Tennessee.

Free, fair elections. Everything flows from there and will work themselves out. That the beauty of the system the Framers put together…

Unless we make some massive moves '24 will be stolen just like '20. ID, paper ballots, no machines - the 'back door' on machines makes all of them corrupt and a piece-of-cake fraud.

Mail in ballots makes the whole point a sick joke. My wife has a mail in ballot. She has cancer. Had to prove she has cancer, can't stand in line. But the animals in all the blue ghettos could be caught taking photos of their ballots,to prove to the moneyman they put them in. But there was no cheating.

Absolutely true. It is an inside job that begins and ends with "we the people".

You are absolutely correct Frank. I had already picked Vaccine mandates as top concern before I read the comments. After doing so, I would choose the free and fair elections now.

Hi Peter, I'm a big fan. You asked for comments. Respectfully, here they are. This is well written, but I do have 2 ideas I'd like to offer - with respect! In your opening line, you echo our Declaration of Independence, but land on a somewhat folksy "rascals" which I think is a miss. If you want to keep rascals, I think stronger language either for the noun or in an adjective is necessary - is this serious or not? Juxtaposing "rascals" to "when a long train of abuses..." doesn't quite ring. "pernicious" or "subversive" rascals? Or change the word to "oligarchs" or even "charlatans" if you want to keep the folksy accessible style. But "rascals" rings of misbehaving children. This is so much worse than that. Also, a quick one sentence on what woke is and why it subverts - "putting an almost ever changing ideology du jour ahead of the founding principles and rights enshrined in this country's founding established to protect its citizens". What I just wrote is awful, but it correlates the casual "are you a racist?" attacks common among woke bullies directly to subverting the rights fought and died for by so many generations of heroes. Lastly, the rest is comprehensive, accessible and does not get bogged down at any point. Nicely done. In any case, feel free to ignore my comments. I am a big fan, and I am always cheering you on. All the best!! :-)

Excellent comments. My choice of "rascals" was simply a riff on the old political saying of "throw the rascals out" but I take your point

Apologies - I was unfamiliar with the saying. Thank you for clarifying - and for the kind word. Keep going, and always wishing you success!! Take care! :-) B

My son wrote a similar Declaration of Independence and he enumerated even more of the complaints we all share. We have to get our elections back on track as being the will of the people and not the will of the cheating, criminal leftist regime. That means every adult must get involved with their local election vote centers/precincts to monitor what happens during the election period. Get your Board of Supervisors to eliminate machines and go back to small precinct voting and hand counting. We’re doing this in Orange County, CA and it’s a huge fight but we’re going to win. Get your neighbors involved in volunteering or actually working for your registrar of voters. It’s up to us! Sitting back and complaining will get you nowhere!

Here are a few of my son’s points in his Declaration of Independence:

YOU stage and have staged insurrections to ruin the lives of and frame the Republic’s citizens, not to mention cause the problems that lead to anger and unrest such as rigged presidential and gubernatorial elections.

YOU have not set a balanced budget and have put our citizens into massive debt due to your irresponsible spending and gluttony only for your gain at the citizens’ expense. YOU have failed to exercise the power of the purse granted to you by the Constitution.

YOU do not have the consent of the governed.

YOU do not enforce the USA Constitution AS WRITTEN.

YOU accuse and frame innocent citizens for the crimes you have committed and continue to commit.

YOU allow illegal immigration, which is an invasion and a crime, and put the needs of illegal migrants and legal migrants over the needs of our citizens.

There’s quite a bit more but we’re still working on it. This may become a petition to be signed and get people across the country engaged.

God bless America and enjoy the 4th of July!

Did you see Jay Valentine on Bannon on July 1st? Links to his 3 segments at the end of this.

What Valentine has been doing by machine, a New York group has been doing for 18 months by hand.

Watch the 3 segments then come back to understand the rest of this note. The New York group discovered more than what Mr Valentine reveals.

The New York research reveals there is a deeply hidden mathematical algorithm embedded into the State and County Voter ID system.

It further reveals that an unknown outside entity has clandestine backdoor access to official New York State Voter IDs and assigns them to cloned and false registrations.

A version of this algorithm has also been found in NJ, PA, OH and North Carolina. They are working on Michigan.

The research has been done by a group of New York citizens known as New York Citizens Audit. Their Research Director made these discoveries and writes at zarkfiles.substack.com.

His name is Andrew Paquette and uses a screen name of Dr Art Zark.

** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** **

This algorithm is complex and deeply hidden.

** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** **

It has been present inside the Voter Rolls for decades and likely lay dormant until after 2016.

** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** **

Mr Paquette writes about the algorithm at American Thinker: https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2023/05/information_warfare_in_new_york.html

The New York research is the most serious and intensive study ever done of any voter roll anywhere.

NYS elections have been stolen for decades. It's probably one of the most conservative states inthe nation.
