Citizens United, Super PAC's, The First Amendment & the Right to Vote

[Wry Catcher]

1. Does the voice of one person echo in the public domain?

2. Were the two Citizens United cases really about free speech?

3. What will influence the voters, the size of one's wallet or the content of their ideas?

4. Is there really voter fraud, and if so, is its volume such that it can impact entire elections?

5. Should 1 person guilty of voter fraud get away, or is it best that 100 innocent voters be turned away?

6. Should labor unions be denied the right to petition the government for a redress of the grievances of their members?

7. Who should carry the water for liberty and justice in America today?

Voting needs to be so easy and inclusive that no person has any excuse not to vote. Election day should be a national holiday as it is in nearly every country in world and here it should be a paid holiday for everyone casting a vote. No person should have to travel that far from home to do it and there should be plenty of voting machines when they get there so that people are not standing in the cold too long. Early voting periods should be as long as necessary.
