3. what is to be done?
I had a muse of inspiration yesterday, it came after reading on the FDR and Bush-Nazi attempted coup during the 1930's. The Press for Conversion! writes about this little-known fascist plot to overthrow the U.S. government in the 1930s. The conspiracy, and the corporate elite behind it, was under control of a Marine general, Smedley Butler. But like the Marine LH Oswald, he appears to have chicked-out at the last moment and turned on this would-be plotters. They never need to kill him to keep quiet, because the whole plot collapsed and FDR stayed in power.

Here’s a current link to it at the Coalition to End the Arms Trade:

Taken in that context, I'm beginning to see in the history on the US a consistent pattern of palace coup and counter-coup, operating under the semblance of a democratic process. Little compromise takes
place between the factions. It is all or nothing, at least since the time of Lincoln and likely before that. The attempted coup of FDR should have made us aware of the dangers of the US military-
industrial complex long before Eisenhower. The people who make the vote machines are part of that complex.

As most of us know, another coup, really a public execution planned with meticulous accuracy, occurred in late 1963 which the violent removal of JFK from office.

So now it’s become different, it's more bloodless, assassination by ballot-box.

I don't know, but maybe we can disable the computers once they are bolted to the election booths. Maybe a high-intensity magnetic field can be secretly introduced by each individual voters, to sabatoge the memory banks before the computers can do their dirty electoral work, and get the fascists re-elected to office. So we don't get these "correct and official" results that will never seem to jive with the exit polling.

We have not other choice, the politicials aren't listening because they are being selected by the software and they don't want to lose the power they gave already gained by fraud. If there are any who started to do something about it, I bet you would see them suddenly lose their next election in an upset or mysterious landslide or something really outlandish like that.
