Do Balllots Trample On Democracy?

RE: Do Balllots Trample On Democracy?
Remember what Ben Franklin said of "democracy."

Quote:Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.


Let us not forget that slaves, women, poor whites (in many states) and Indians were excluded under the constitution that the 'founding fathers' came up with.

This was envisioned as a constitution of the propertied classes.... what the republicunts are now trying to restore!
