This crap makes me furious! Why isn't this an election issue?

Democracy? Don't we live in a constitutional republic?

yes, and he also doesn't understand the definition of democracy, nor the facts/figures on the spending. Unions spent hundreds of millions.

I had a convo with my father about this just the other day. How they are quick to lump all republican spending into one big monstrous figure, and then in the same sentence cry about how they just can't match up monetarily to make it look like the elections are being bought. But they never talk about union spending, celebrity contributions, and so-on.

But hey, the evil republicans wanting people to show their IDs when voting is suppressing the right of minorities, gays, the elderly, women and the youth to vote. I guess only middle aged white men have/can afford drivers licenses/credentials?
