The future of vote fraud: Universal Voter Registration

John Fund on how universal voter registration will be used to overwhelm the registratiuon roles and make them so unreliable that making the dead and illegal aliens vote will be easier (video’s courtesy of David Horowitz and Big Govt.com):

Cloward & Piven Attending the Motor Voter Legislation Signing

This is a primary goal of what is known as the Cloward-Piven Stategy. Cloward and Piven were two professors from Columbia University. They wrote a plan on how to bring down the social-economic strength of the United States by overwhelming the election, welfare, government services and private sector with laws, regulations and government spending that would make prospertity unsustainable for the purpose of bringing about economic collapse. The purpose of this collapse was to blame capitalism and freedom for all of the problems and use the crisis as an excuse to bring about central control of the economy and our lives, as well as control of the political system by the “elites”.

The video below is Wade Rathke, the Founder of ACORN (the vote fraud people who get your tax money thanks to Congress) See how Rathke makes it all sound so reasonable:

…except it won’t be implemented cleanly, it will be implemented “Chicago Style” so that the dead can vote everywhere as they do there. I wrote a paper on how some European countries have mandatory voting, often the courts and reghulations are used and interpreted in a such a way to keep the incumbants in power and keep upstart challanger parties off the ballots.

The Washington Times:

The proposal is to register everyone on every welfare list, everyone getting unemployment insurance, everyone with a driver’s license, everyone who has had run-ins with the legal system, everyone owning any property – basically everyone on every list the government keeps. People will be registered to vote whether or not they want to be registered. If individuals are on any public record, they will be automatically registered.

Obviously a lot of illegal aliens have driver’s licenses, and many get other government benefits. Quite a few have rap sheets. People’s names and other identification information are frequently recorded differently across these different lists, which means that one could be registered a separate time for every slight variation in how their personal information is kept on file.

The legislation is also expected to give felons the right to vote. Why Democrats insist on letting someone who has raped multiple women vote on social policy is beyond us. According to Democrats, robbers who have preyed on helpless victims – and even murderers – have the judgment to tell us how law enforcement should be run in this country.

In May 2005, Public Opinion Strategies surveyed felons who had their voting rights restored and nonfelons who voted in Washington state. Even after accounting for the voters’ race, gender, education level, religious habits, employment, age and county of residence, the book Freedomnomics found that “felons were 36 percent more likely than nonfelons with the same characteristics to have voted for [John] Kerry [a Democrat] over [George W.] Bush [a Republican] and 37 percent more likely to be registered Democratic.”

For years, Democrats have fought against requiring photo IDs at polling places. The practice, which is simply a way to make sure voters are who they say they are, is used in about 100 other countries. Mexico, for example, has cracked down on voter fraud and is strict about requiring photo identification to vote. If Democrats have their way, it will be easier for Mexicans to vote in America than in their own country.

China: It’s getting harder to buy U.S. Treasuries…

Shanghai Daily:

IT is getting harder for governments to buy United States Treasuries because the US’s shrinking current-account gap is reducing supply of dollars overseas, a Chinese central bank official said yesterday.

The comments by Zhu Min, deputy governor of the People’s Bank of China, referred to the overall situation globally, not specifically to China, the biggest foreign holder of US government bonds.

Chinese officials generally are very careful about commenting on the dollar and Treasuries, given that so much of its US$2.3 trillion reserves are tied to their value, and markets always watch any such comments closely for signs of any shift in how it manages its assets.

China’s State Administration of Foreign Exchange reaffirmed this month that the dollar stands secure as the anchor of the currency reserves it manages, even as the country seeks to diversify its investments.

In a discussion on the global role of the dollar, Zhu told an academic audience that it was inevitable that the dollar would continue to fall in value because Washington continued to issue more Treasuries to finance its deficit spending.

He then addressed where demand for that debt would come from.

“The United States cannot force foreign governments to increase their holdings of Treasuries,” Zhu said, according to an audio recording of his remarks. “Double the holdings? It is definitely impossible.”

China is very careful about what it says publically. Make no mistake, China is sending the United States a message that is a borderline threat. China, as well as much of the world, wants us to stop the overspending and over printing of the dollar.
