Re-create Ohio live. ?? Would it be possible
to re-create some of ways the thefts tooks place - for education, posterity, and persuasion?

I was devastated on January 6 that Conyers and others only addressed certain aspects of the theft in Ohio - people waiting in lines and insufficient voting machines, but hardly a peep about hardware and software theft. Perhaps Conyers and the others had no choice and they emphasized what they could prove at the time. But, given that there has to be a known overlap of people who may have voted for Bush and who were or will be scandalized by the disregard of the thieves for the sanctity of the vote and to make up for the lock-out of media coverage leading up to January 6, why not strike out at everyones sense of rights in a recreation?

Could a re-creation of the day and the filming of it be used to educate for the sake of the country? (Not a ten hour documentary, but cut-outs from the hours using the same people and their testimony or people representing them in as perfectly re-created circumstances as is possible)?

Yes, a live re-creation. The act of re-creating could attract live media coverage, but even if the media locks it out, a film of it could be used for propaganda against the cabal who orchestrated this. There is a need to document this action against the constitution. There is a need to prove to the citizens that a collective ‘we’ lost a right. For the sake of the country.

This film of the re-creation could be provided to other documentary makers, authors, photographers, historians for their use and the act of re-creating would be history in a possibly small, but what could be a very important way.

Why not expand it by re-creating the two machines in a heavily populated precinct in contrast to the 16 machines in a lesser populated precinct and the 39 machines stored in a warehouse with all the ‘flavor’ of the demographics explained in their authentic geographical settings?

The possibilities of the re-creations of the fraud are many – involving before the election, day of election and post-election fraud. The narration can be carefully edited to prove, indicate, and, of course, show the fraud, and, at the same time, avoid legal trouble (by all means).

The power of an easy-to-understand narration and the ability to see how it went down will do more than could come from three dozen books of text or Congressional Records sitting on a dusty shelf in the archives.

Could it be done? Are there people in Ohio who could and would do it?

How much would it cost? Perhaps more time than money with the right coordinators and volunteers.

It has been proven that little people can defend themselves and their rights.

1. There is a group working on a film on the Ohio election
...at least one, possibly more. Here's one-- Bob Fitrakis, Steve Rosenfeld and Harvey Wasserman are co-authors of the upcoming Ohio’s Stolen Election: Voices of the Disenfranchised, 2004, a book and film project from http://freepress.org.
