Why don't the Democrats bring this up every time they're on the stump? The fawning corporate media would eventually have to pay some attention to this mess. Republicans have been stealing Presidential elections since LBJ and aren't going to stop until some one calls them out. Nixon, Reagan, Bush - all 3 stole elections - and nobody seems to care?

Is it not a form of treason to cry like a baby when asked to pay the taxes that are required to run a modern civil society. How about using Reagan's racist "welfare queen" lie to promote the idea that our citizens aren't worth feeding. Isn't it a bit treasony to believe that corporations are better at doing things than the government our founding fathers created? Fear of immigrants in a nation of immigrants? The whole whiny conservababy liedeology sounds like the antithesis of humanity to me.
