Democratic Underground - Here's what former Pres. Jimmy Carter says about why our elections can't be "observed" ...!!

JIMMY CARTER re our Elections �

President Jimmy Carter �

Carter Center, Alabama, saying they could not serve as observers in US elections because we

lack the three necessary criteria --

1 - Voters must be able to understand the ballot procedures and the ballots themselves

2 - Voters must have equal rights to have their votes counted

3 - There must be a central commission in the country to resolve election disputes

Carter says that none of these conditions prevail throughout the US � and that Florida violated

all three � !!

Universal & Equal Suffrage -

�The will of the people shall be the basis of the authority of government �

This will shall be expressed in periodic and genuine elections which shall be by

universal and equal suffrage --

United Nations 1948 � Universal Declaration of Human Rights �

�The most important control system the power brokers have established

in this country is that we the people will settle for less, that we will settle for

the least worst� �
