Such sadness and concern envelope the political realm of our country. The concern spreads and overflows this bountiful land full of good and beautiful people, confused though they are.
While possible foreign interference in our elections is a real worry, of far greater concern at this time is the suppression of votes involving a racist component. Careful researcher, Greg Palast has documented the removal of 14 million persons from the voting rolls in the most recent period. This is the true horror of now. These voters, many of color, and with Hispanic-sounding names have been purged through a program called Crosscheck, originally developed by Kris Kobach of Kansas, and now spread to many other states. (For further information see sidebar at right.)
But the people are aroused and they are tuning in. A majority now favors impeachment of the President. The story of the land of the free is still the story of the brave as well.
