					<description><![CDATA[Go to any housing project and you&#039;ll find Lexus, Infiniti, BMWs and of course the daddy of them all Cadillacs parked in the complex. Visit any homeless shelter or drug treatment center and it&#039;s soooo apparent that the Dems have handicapped these people to the point that they are clueless about productivity.

Now DEMS are fighting against IDs, the cornerstone of livelihood &quot;gameful employment&quot; to generate and grow income to restore dignity and respect which is what every black community had in the 50s and 60s. 

Just as Herman Cain suggested, it&#039;s time to escape the plantation!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Thank you Eric for your comments. However, I do not think you understand the purpose of the article. Recent research has found that their is little to no voter fraud based on identification in the United States.

One would be oblivious to the tactics of the GOP only if you embrace their beliefs. One Pennsylvania politician is quoted on video saying that one of the GOP&#039;s strategies was to suppress voters in that state to ensure a win for Mr. Romney. Is that American?

It is my view, that the same Id requirements that were used during the 2008 Presidential election should continue for the upcoming election. That&#039;s all!


So Eric, no one is suggesting that illegal immigrants vote we are talking about African Americans, college students and the elderly which represent people of all races.

Whatever issues you have with Mr. Holder is between you and Mr.Holder. He is simply exercising his right to sue. That&#039;s American.

Finally Eric, since you do not have any knowledge of the financial situations of the persons you negatively provide a laundry lists of generalizations, it would be more proper to simply focus on something you are more knowledgeable about. In fact, go visit a housing area and learn first hand rather than repeat what you have possibly seen on t.v.

The bottom line Eric, as fellow Americans we should be supportive of protecting the rights of all people to vote. We as African Americans have ancestors who died trying to get the right to vote when it was denied only a few decades ago. 

Let&#039;s not argue over the right the vote, the opportunity to vote, let&#039;s join forces in ensuring that ALL people who have a right to vote in this election, get the opportunity to vote without people trying to put in place new standards to prevent them from voting. Let&#039;s do that as Americans.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This is ridiculous!!!  How is requiring people to show identification to vote, voter suppression?  With all the voter fraud going around, I think it&#039;s imperative that we show id when voting.  That way, our votes cannot be stolen.  First of all the reason college students can&#039;t use a college id to vote, is because some college students aren&#039;t from the state they go to school in.  If those students were allowed to vote in that state, they could influence the outcome of local elections, which would have affects on the people who live in that community.  That would be unfair to the locals!!!!!  Also they are always allowed to vote with absentee ballots for their home state.  Nothing is stopping them from doing that.  If the military can do it, so can they.  And if allowed to vote in the states where they go to school, who says they won&#039;t vote twice, when it comes to national elections?  That means they could vote in their school state and then use an absentee ballot for their home state.  

Also, valid id&#039;s don&#039;t cost an arm and a leg to get.  We have people in the projects that have expensive clothes, electronic items, go out to eat, go to the clubs and do other things with the money they get, so why cant they just use a little money to get an id?  Poor and elderly people need a valid id to drive a car.  Is that transportation suppression?  They need a valid id to cash a check.  Is that banking suppression?  Come down to the border states where we experience first hand, the reason why valid id is needed to vote.  Illegal immigrants are everywhere down here.  Also, it&#039;s funny that Eric Holder and the doj is bringing a law suit against Texas because our state govt wants to pass voter id laws.  He had a function today in Houston and guess what???? People going inside had to show valid id to get in!!!!!  Is that suppressing the right to assembly??????]]></description>
