Forum Post: Universl Suffrage - THE Issue for the Masses

The constitution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania states:

"Elections shall be free and equal; and no power, civil or military, shall at any time interfere to prevent the free exercise of the right of suffrage."

Unfortunately the politicians of the two dominance parties have made a total mockery of it.

A universal suffrage amendment in the United States Constitution would change America forever and for the better.

Democrats and Republicans only want people voting who they can control and dominate. This generally leaves 35-40% of the electorate out of the political process. Fuck the Democrats and Republicans!

Change American politics forever, demand a universal suffrage amendment to the United States Constitution.

America hates democracy

That is the clear conclusion drawn from the lack of support or even interest in the concept of universal suffrage.

If you're concerned about universal suffrage then please take a look at the Rolling Stone article that I cited here:

pustule oozing social diseases

Frankly the war on voting is bi-partisan. Both the two dominance parties have blocks of Americans that they work overtime to keep out of the electoral process. Each has put subversions in place that the other turns a blind eye to because they can make use of the same tactics for their own purposes.

This is why I am not in any political party today. Political parties are canker ridden pustule oozing social diseases infecting the body politic of American democracy.

That's a perfectly valid opinion, but at least vote. If you don't vote at all then other people will vote against you.

I am a strong believer in voting. Regardless of how subverted American democracy is. disaffection is the greatest subversion. The one that the parties really depend upon to have no one but their blind followers going to the polls.
