Guest guest Posted January 1, 2005 Report Share Posted January 1, 2005 The Dean people have it all set up at the site below to send a great message to all your congress people asking that they endorse the Declaration of Intent to object to unlawful electors on January 6th, 2005. Just go to this site and fill in zipcode, name, address http://www.thedeanpeople.com/ It is felt that it is helpful to contact even the ones we know won't sign so they all know that this is what the people want. Senators that were asked why the didn't sign to object to the FL vote in 2000 said that no one asked them to. Please help make sure that many people ask this time. It would help if you could forward this to others, especially people in CA, MD, MA, VT, IL, Wisconsin, and Iowa. If in a hurry, just go to http://www.thedeanpeople.com/ ........................................... If you want to read their letter first, here it is: Will you speak out with John Conyers or leave him standing alone? Are hours-long poll-tax-lines for poor, minority voters AND none for affluent, white voters a tolerable condition for you? On January 6th, 2005, will you uphold the objection to electors from a state where this is the documented reality, or become complicit with the perpetrators of this condition? As stated by the member of Congress who introduced the electoral count act: " The power to judge of the legality of the votes is a necessary consequent of the power to count. The existence of this power is of absolute necessity to the preservation of the Government. " --18 Cong. Rec. 30 (1886) On January 6th, 2001, the members of the Senate and the House, save the Congressional Black Caucus, failed to meet their constitutional duty to independently judge the validity of the unlawful Florida electors. You may take issue with this statement, but had Congress carried out their duty to judge, surely they would have recognized that the Florida election had been truncated and was therefore invalid. When members of Congress failed to reject the illegitimate Florida electors, they emboldened those who are willing to go to any lengths to manipulate the outcome of our elections. Those who have committed crimes against democracy have been allowed to benefit from their crimes, and they just keep building on their successes. Now, the " experts " have even implemented systems that are not only wide open to corruption, they have been designed to make it impossible to recount or validate the results! I can hear the chuckles of derision as various " leaders " and elected representatives vow, once again, " to make sure it doesn't happen next time. " The methods differ from 2000, but the goal remains the same. In Ohio, Florida, New Mexico, and other battleground states, partisan election officials systematically, and indisputably, underallocated resources in a way that disenfranchised innumerable African American, elderly, and working poor voters. Turnout was cut in half in precincts across the nation as voters were prevented from expressing their will because their registrations had been thrown away, or they did not appear on the out-of-date precinct lists that were " accidentally " used, or they were misdirected, or they were unable to stand for hours in the pouring rain or blazing sun because election officials withheld voting machines. So much for the vows to " Count Every Vote. " It's a simple formula. Let them " Count Every Vote, " we'll just pull out all the stops – throw away registrations, move and consolidate voting places, provide fewer voting machines, broken voting machines, whatever it takes -- to make sure votes don't get cast in the first place! And they were successful. Innumerable voters in precincts projected to vote overwhelmingly for John were prevented from casting their votes. As successful as the efforts to suppress votes were, serious allegations remain unresolved that tell us that suppression was just a small part of the picture. For example, across the county, machines were " improperly calibrated " to default to Bush. Investigation has been blocked and the evidence remains unsecured, but analysts have noted that the residual rate (instances of no vote cast) was reduced far beyond all predictions, and cite this as a key success of the voting machines. That success is actually a catastrophic corruption of the results if it was achieved by awarding the residual to Bush. Despite the powerful evidence of their crimes, the criminals remain confident that they will, once again, successfully " get away with the goods. " And why shouldn’t they be confident? Their efforts to obstruct investigation and pervert the intent of our election laws have, so far, been successful. Each day that passes, I'm sure they sigh in relief, believing that if they can thwart efforts to investigate or obtain remedy through civil and/or criminal judicial means until January 6th, they'll be home free. Even if they are caught after the fact, it won’t matter. All that matters is keeping the stolen goods: the Presidency of the United States of America. Unless you publicly declare your intent to fight for us NOW, and do everything in your power to stop them on January 6th, they will be right; they will get away with the goods. If you fail to object to such intolerable abuses of our democratic processes, then the criminals will not be alone. You too must be held responsible for our descent into the Stalinist perversion of " democracy; " in which " Those who cast the votes decide nothing. Those who count the votes decide everything. " Congressman Conyers has declared his intent to object to the electors from Ohio, but the abuses did not start and stop with Ohio. The elections in Florida, New Mexico, and other states must also be fully investigated before their electors can be considered lawfully appointed. Despite the silence of the news media, a recent Gallup poll reported that 19% in this nation believe the " victory " of the Bush/Cheney ticket to be fraudulent. This number in the overall population undoubtedly translates to more than 40% of the politically engaged. I believe I am speaking for millions -- those who are acquainted with the facts today, and those who will become acquainted with them in the future -- when I ask you to stand up and declare your intent to object to ANY and ALL tainted electors. Publicly endorse the following declaration or make an equivalent public statement today, before January 6th is upon us. Don't fail us again.
