  1. What is so hard to fathom as an overseas viewer is how the human community has never really caught on with people---anywhere you want to look. There are as many reasons to like someone as to dislike someone, but what could be the reason that someone would go to such effort to have someone else not vote in a democratic republic like The United States, for example? I would like tell what I think is the underlying problem, but first I have to add the disclaimer that I am an artist and have never studied law or politics or business. What I think we need to examine is that with capitalism as the motor under the hood of the sedan we call society, the motivator above anything is money. Sadly, any time money is involved as a life goal, the stronger one is financially, the better one lives in society. It is no wonder that voter suppression ultimately gets down to the fact that if certain people represent particular communities, money will be siphoned off those who have been in the driver's seat. This unacceptable to those who are in control. It's not their fault; it's the fault of the economic system. Money is more addictive and influences us more than anything else in the modern world. So; what I am saying is this: we must retire our ancient and toxic capitalist system with an economic model that makes sure that everyone gets a piece of the pie. It's not going to be easy, but we can no longer live in a world where the top ten percent of the 1% of people end up having most of the benefits of our economic prosperity. I don't blame anyone. The simple fact of the matter is---and I only speak for myself---that everyone on the earth should have the same chance at having a good life.

  2.  boris sato  GGGGGGGGGGGGreat to hear from you. We need to show specific facts when talking about something so devastating to the American Republic as fraud. I'm an overseas viewer and not someone in America witnessing what is going on, but I can tell you that if there really was fraud, there would be proof wallpapered across the internet.
