  • You've got to stepback and see if a country benefits yourself and your family. If your country doesnt provide adequate services, regardless of political affilation then you should and need to find a country that can fill your needs. As I am in the process of finding a new one.

  • Isn't it so that people who have been to prison can't vote in America? If that's true, it's completely medieval and you will not find a similar practice in any other modern country. But it sounds too retarded to be true even in America, please tell me it isn't? : )

  • This guy so biased that he's more biased than Rachel Maddow, Chris Matthews, and Keith Olbermann combined. Cenk NEWS FLASH: BOTH PARTIES ARE AT FAULT FOR WHAT IS GOING ON! IT'S NOT JUST THE REPUBLICANS! THE DEMOCRATS ARE NOT JESUS CHRIST! And NOT all Republicans are racist! It's very ironic that someone like you would paint a whole group of people with one brush considering that you are very biased liberal. O I think I get it, you can stereotype Republicans & conservatives bc they dont matter

  • FUCK REPUBLICANS

  • the constitution does not explicitly give anyone the right to vote. amendments only protect from discrimination. im all for requiring people to pay taxes in order to vote (not a poll tax, but actual taxes). people that do not have a financial stake in this country do not deserve to vote. voting is a privilege, not a right.

  • TYT are Retards

  • there is no right to vote

  • Good video!

  • this is the dumbest bastard still breathing.

  • Spelling has nothing to do with the debate as long as you understand what the other is saying, it's fine. It's not a spelling coompetition, so let go to the debate.

    I honestly believe that the McCain supporter do not get it. In fact they don't know why they support McCain.

    Obama=Biden08

  • if that were my house I would stay in that line until the fuck'in end of days to have my vote counted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • They would call the police and take you to jail. Welcome to big brother!

  • Where, in some states, you will lose your voting rights forever, even if you spend 1 minute in jail.

    If this is the ultimate democracy, I prefer communism .... :-s

  • It's legal, unlike what ACORN is doing for OBAMA. Look up MI state Challenger QA 177165 Simple fix update your current address or general delivery address with the voter registrar office then the vote can not be contested.

  • LOL what a stupid democrat. HAHA thanks for making me smile moron :D

  • THERE IS NO RIGHT TO VOTE! Read the Constitution, the founding document of this country. There are amendments that set up rules against voter discrimination, but nothing in the Bill of Rights or subsequent amendments to the Constitution that give you the RIGHT to VOTE. Mark this as spam all you want, but there is NO DOCUMENTED RIGHT TO VOTE.

  • that so true loggerbuck he isn't a good liar. because he is telling the truth . unless the republicans who have a problem telling the truth to the america every thing they do and. and stupid airhead listen to limbaugh who is the mouth piece for the retarded conservative base. its really takes a brainless person to listen to anything these republicans have to say. they are blinded in there own self righteousness. and i see that you are also. lol

  • Cenk - Republicans have to cheat to win.

  • Typical - Start with an adhominem attack? Thanks for showing us your bag is empty. You have no points, only hate.

  • @isegoria1 How else are they gonna be able to try and start their theocracy?

  • @isegoria1 Sure, what about ACORN?

  • @simontimon2 ACORN.....Hey I should have your post so I could have saved my time. These Democraps dont understand that they suffer from demo disease

  • @isegoria1 You mean the machines were rigged in Nevada by SEIU thugs to help Harry pull off another term.

  • @isegoria1 so do democrats, hey heard of ACORN!!!!!!!! Dont feel bad Democrats suffer from demo decease

  • stick a fork in our democracy; it's done. Been done for eight years. They stole the election in 2000 in Florida. They stole the election in 2004 in Ohio. They'll steal it again next year; it doesn't really matter where. Republicans believe in freedom: for themselves and for no one else. It's the same BS every election. "Your vote counts"; suuuuurrreeee, they'll count how many votes to throw out so McCain will win.

  • Ignore this idiot and mark him as the spam he is.

  • Some information too dangerous for you? I'll play a tiny violin bemoaning your pain.

  • I seem to be a magnet for moron these days? Fuck off

  • I have four questions for you. Yeah? And? So? What? Democrat wrongdoing doesn't justify Republican wrongdoing. That's the kind of morally bankrupt thinking that can (and did) justify torture.

  • First of all, this country isn't a DEMOCRACY. It's a democratic, constitutional REPUBLIC. Democracy is a form of MOB RULE, and our forefathers saw it as such, which is why they set it up the way that they did with the electoral college. Read a fucking book. Seriously.

  • You mean like the books that have the words "representative democracy" in them?

  • please take bush's dick out of your mouth....

  • Republicans do NOT believe in fair elections, kinda like dictators of third-world countries...

  • I am mixed voter and I am a democrat lawyer. I sue some government laws of being unconstitutional. I have never heard of this! I will get this anyway I can! This is un American! Say 2334 if you agree!!:)

  • Mr horse lawyer: Tell me, where in the Constitution is the Right To Vote part? Just curious.

    And why do horses need lawyers? Do they vote?

  • That's scary !!! the blacks are not the problem and not even a problem they are american. the pro-israeli are the worst . hate the blacks,hates the poor, hate everything that goes against israel. OUr american Jewish dont have complete allegance to america. their allegance is for Israel. muslim have only one allegance America. some of them hate even the middleeast. it is scary

  • People... Israel has taken over our foreign policy and the politicians. They are controlling the media and blocking the truth. Saw some news about senator liebermann trying to block youtube videos that speaks the truth about what is really going on.

    We can't let any state take over our politicians or press or media.

    Commerce with all nations, alliance with none..

  • you got my vote my friend

  • Homeless folks can vote....

    I helped to register many myself.

    We had the voter use "General Delivery" of their neighborhood post office, and where that post office was determined where they voted.

    the cliche was You may have lost your home but you have not lost your country or your vote.

  • It's a common misconception that homeless citizens forfeit their right to vote.

    I participated in a nationwide drive to register homeless citizens to vote.

    Nationwide, the drive was successful. In Florida, where the drive began, we completed the registration by having the citizen use "General Delivery" at their neighborhood post office, as their address. That General Delivery address determined their polling place.

    peace & hope

  • Where is the justice?

    Answer: There is none for the poor

    This country is becoming a nightmare, the evidence is right in front of peoples faces yet they still deny the fact that the system of checks and balances is broken and thos that broke it, don't want it fixed. The faces of those behind this smile at you on your T.V in thier suits,lying when they say they represent us .Most people fall way below the stipulated defination of rich but trust their future to those that are. insanity!

  • Good video. How big of a loser do you have to be to try to prevent a registered voter from voting?

  • man thats a total human rights violation!! they really are fascist!!

  • Google and read an article written in 2001

    "The White House and the Bar - New York Times"

    Those judges have the final say.

  • Prove it! My family was deprived of our right to steele/oil/agriculture/busines­s/etc. empire due to slavery! GTFOOH! Bigotry is no longer in the shadows!

  • This infuriates me! And those who continue to support this type of political fraud are just as dumb/evil as those who deal it!

  • Move to the middle east where the elite decide what your government does. Here, we like democracy and hate the ones who try to interfere.

  • I find this viewpoint kind of... communist. If just the people who have political knowledge are allowed to vote, I think that would just leave politicians/political spectators to DICTATE what will happen. While other people are too busy WORKING and/or fighting for the country to get their political degree to get their voice heard.

    Though you say "we MUST not allow the masses to vote", I believe the "masses" will never vote to have their right taken away and glad that's just YOUR fantasy.

  • I LOVE the part about PEOPLE WHO DON'T MAKE OVER 250K A YEAR SHOULD NOT VOTE FOR REPUBLICANS!!! It is so good to know there are other Americans around with some common sense. Thank You for your contribution to educating idiots!

  • no, he said who are the bad guys, and who are the good? i didnt hear him favour democratics, i heard him exposing republicans for what they are

  • Republicans are lame!!!! Old values and old wayz. This ain't the 1950s and the fate of tomorrow shouldn't be decided by the 50-90 year olds of today. Sorry =(. Out with the old and in with the new. Get out there and vote people.

  • wow this BananaRama is a nut job I live in San Francisco and we are doing fine not in this foreclosure hell thats going on in most of the country, it was the republicans that deregulated the loan industry so that george bush could say that new home ownership was higher than ever so that he could win the last election. at the cost of our economy but that is how republicans work.

  • Republicans hate democracy, they want power at any cost.

  • Hate Rupublicans! they know their gonna lose! so desperate. btw I love you Cenk, you're my Hero! TYT should be on TV

  • "If you're not pissed you're not paying attention"

    You said it all my friend!

  • You Liberal moron mentally disordered sick people Your Obama=Socialism and you trying to elect him how hard you try He is over HAHA

  • you fucking blow job you stop dreaming that by voting for palin you won't get to fuck her daughter and i heard palin pussy is loose for having 5 retarded kids with big heads

  • Republicans cost the American people a trillion dollars for the illegal and irrational Iraq war.

    They are traitors to America.

  • its called Voter Canging..and they've done it. OBAMA 08

  • Democrats should start challenging more votes. Give the Reuglicans a taste of their own medicine.

  • No. Because Democrats believe in the right to vote for everyone. If you want to become like Karl Rove, you have given up the moral high ground.

  • This video is completely and utterly biased. This is some small county in Michigan that no one's ever heard of, but all of a sudden it's some big issue?! Complete bull. Anyone heard of San Francisco? YES. How come nobody complains about the crazy shit they pull out there? Because the media's totally liberal, and they either support everything San Francisco does or don't even bother reporting it. This is unbelievably disgraceful.

  • the small county nobody's heard of has almost 800,000 people

  • Compared to the 7 million in San Francisco I'd still say it doesn't compare

  • it's a suburb of detroit,get back to me when san francisco denied people the right to vote

  • get back to me when a suburb in detroit allows an american family to be slaughtered, and then sends those illegal alien murderers back to their own country via plane tickets paid for by the american taxpayers.

  • you have a much greater chance of being murdered in detroit by good ol' american murderers.i'm sure you didn't leave out any detail of your story either...

  • obama must win , everyone vote for OBAMA!!!

  • That is some scary shit.

  • Welcome to ZIMBABWE!!!

  • MY Last comment was supposed to say.....IF ANY REPUBLICAN IS CHALLENGING ANYONE .. I WILL PERSONALY FILM THE EVENT AND KICK THE NATZI REPUBLICANS ASS!

  • I know a way to answer the challenge in the voting booth: a Kalashnikov. If someone tries to stop you from voting, shoot them.

  • Yeah fighting fire with fire. Sounds like a great idea. Good luck.

  • When they take away your vote, when they take away your voice, what's left?

  • What's left? Kill them all in rage. Give them a legitimate reason to oppress you even harder. Be just like your your enemy and then kill yourself. That's what's left to do. :)

  • We're not talking about killing indiscriminately. Nor even killing all those responsible. Nor would it be *like* our enemy since it is a defense act to enforce our rights. If you can't vote, there's no democracy. You can't vote an authoritarian regime out of office, though you can vote one into office. You think fighting against a feudalistic coup makes us like these bastards? You're asleep. Oh and you didn't answer my question. Please do. I'm not being sarcastic.

  • I like ketchup and sugar.

  • You know what is said about his whole story it is being shown all over the world. You Republicans have disgraced our country you should be ashamed of yourselves. The word is out all over the country so this disgusting ploy that the Republicans are trying to pull to supress the vote its not going to work. I personally called 2 radio stations myself here in Atlanta after I read the story on line at Huffington last night to help get the word out! Leave people alone you evil bastards!

  • Why should the Republicans be ashamed? It's the liberal Democrat minority and special interest groups who pressure banks into giving houses to people that can't afford them. And there's plenty of Democrat nut jobs out there that pull this kind of crazy stuff all across the country. Have you ever even heard of San Francisco? They do the same kind of crap in a MAJOR CITY. Nobody's even heard of this town.

    And if you read the Huffington you're just as crazy, only on the liberal side. Shame on you.

  • Last time I checked it took 2/3 of congress to pass legislation so I can't figure out how a minority would do anything. Then if I remember my history, republicans had the majority in congress from 2000 to 2006. That means republicans had 2 of 3 branches and what do we have to show for it?

  • Never said anything about legislation, which isn't needed. All banks want is money, but they're not stupid enough to give people houses that can't afford them- in the end it's the bank that loses the money. They only do that because minority groups and lawyers threaten to sue and charge them with racism if they don't. And the Dems all ran for election in '06 talking about how they would change Washington, how they would fix all of our problems- they've done NOTHING, cept take longer vacations

  • thats cuz all of their proposals are being vetoed.

  • "If you're not pissed, you're not paying attention" - Cenk Uygur

    Going in my collection of quotes.

  • Yeah man!!! we Americans Have been screwed good & will probably be even more after november. I starting to hate to be in this country.

  • you stupid americans

    i live in a country with half your gdp/capita, yet i can vote on the weekend and theres never a line because a precinct is not bigger than 1000 people

  • it wasnt the policies. it was the people who took loans they cant afford.

  • then they shouldnt be getting those loans in the firt place.

    its the loaners responsibility to know if the

    person can pay them back. while it is the peoples fault the loaners put loop holes and

    high interest rates in their contracts

    which in turn fuck over the society

  • republicans call democrats pussies on terror and war, but the truth is, they are pussies against the republicans. if obama loses, it's because democrats can't find the balls to point out these obvious crimes.

  • you may be right

  • Obama has also pledged to stop the revolving door if elected. He has also declined to take donations from lobbyists; McCain has not.

  • Wow! I can't believe how f*cked up the US political system is!!

  • I agree. I'm Canadian and this is just mind blowing that votes can be challenged at the voting booth. Absolutely Ridiculous!

  • "If you're not pissed, you're not paying attention." Truer words have never been spoken.

  • Everything you just said is a big lie. It's your paranoia about illegal voters that has done more harm to the electoral system than ANY illegal voters.

  • if they voted early some how like you can in canada if you are not available i done see how that could work

  • Whoa, wait a second. You are telling me american elections do not take place on weekends? Is that true?

  • If you are registered as living in a given state than you vote in that state! wtf are you talking about! you do not have to be a homeowner to vote! these people that will be challenged will all get to vote anyway, the republicans are just being didldos like usual and trying to make the system as undemocratic as possible. Republicans are fucking facists!

    how can u listen to these kind of reports and still support the republicans! are you some kind of massicist!?

  • I hope you're rich cleftronix. Because if you're not rich, you are a sucker. You are that abused woman who defends her boyfriend that beats her. Unless of course you are rich and then hey, who cares what's happening to the rest of the country as long as you get yours right?

  • Usually you vote based on your last residence. Shouldn't it just be based your ID/ personal information? And no, I don't want illegal aliens or legal aliens to be able to vote. And I don't think illegals should get drivers licenses.

  • what we deserve is a democracy! Democracy: rule of the people.

    If you want to live in a democracy, vote democrat. If you want to live in a facist police state where morals are depicted by the highest bidder and religouse extremist lunatics than vote for the noe-conservatives.

  • Another great vid from TYT. WTF is wrong with the MSM. Pussys I tell you!

  • the road to hell is paved with Republican scum.

  • Is this on the cover of every newspaper and the top of news show in America? Of course not. Liberal media? My ass.

  • This guy is an outright liar. He's completely biased and feeding you mis-information. Vote for Obama if you want but don't believe this moron. Go look up the facts yourself and don't rely on you-tube wackos for your information. He says he combs through all the stories and doesn't see any nasty tactics on the Dem side? Pulllleeeeease! What a dishonest guy. Please don't rely on him for your opinions.

  • jtbarlotube this is actually true. Check the internet

  • You need to do your homework before you call someone a liar.

  • you need to read a little more

  • Read Armed Madhouse by Greg Palast

  • Cenk, you don't understand. The terrorists hate us for our freedom.

  • "Cenk, you don't understand. The terrorists hate us for our freedom."

    And you don't seem to understand that Republicans are trying to restrict those same freedoms we take for granted just to keep their failed cronies in power.

  • Yeh, I was being sarcastic. Didn't think I had to explain that. For all the Republican talk of "Freedom" and wrapping every piece of bullshit in the American flag, this is the kind of freedom in which they actually believe. Freedom on their terms to serve their own ends.

  • I couldn't have said this better myself. KUDOS!

  • I can sense the sarcasm....but u needed to elaborate on it!!  LOL U can't SOUND sarcastic when you type!

  • Republicans are smoking crack... They can't do that.

  • I find it quite surprising that elections in the us aren't on weekends as it is the case where I live. Or did I get that wrong?

  • Can u believe it,the MSM talks about pig with lipstick but this doesnt make it on their list of issues to cover?

  • The tactic of the line being too long is just stupid. If ur future and that of ur kids depends on it,then u say the line is too long?

    Its like going to the hospital seriously ill then leave because theres a queue. Doesnt make any sense,no employer will fire u because u waited for ur turn to cast ur vote.Its an act of PATRIOTISM to cast ur vote. So u r UNPATRIOTIC if u think waiting to cast ur vote isnt worth it.

  • Actually, THIS would make a fantastic attack ad.

  • thanks for covering this Cenk. This is unconstitutional for the GOPigs to do this.

  • They don't care if it's anti-democratic, they are social darwinists they're going to do what it takes to win, end of story.

  • Fine, but are you going to give them your vote and thereby approve of these tactics?

  • It's a means test for voting, plain & simple. The poor and foreclosed don't get to vote.

  • Did you forget we are in 2008 going on 2009 and the states is in the shitter cause of the Republicans...wasn't that way in 2000.Guess ya either have a short term memory or you vote Republican.My guess is the latter.

  • Any proof that the Dems tried to prevent military votes? There are pieces of evidence regarding voter suppression by the Republicans in 2000 and 2004 at least.

  • No, they just wanted a legal witness as required by law.

  • Welcome back Cenk!

    I thought Wes would have put you out of business. You guys should team up for a 2hr set of debates or something.

    Good vid! Good points!

  • I love how Cenk develops his arguments. He hits all the important points and then brings home a logical conclusion. It's easy to see he's also a lawyer.

  • Cenk is an idependent who has thrown his hat in for the Dems in this election bcuz he realizes that the repugs will and did and continue to be against his people NO MATTER WHAT!

    who are his people?

    Loyal american muslims who moved away from the extremism of middle east.

    AND WHY?

    Bcuz the beauty & strength of America is in our multiculturalism.

    NO STATE RELIGION. NO MATTER WHAT. NO DOMINATE CULTURE. NO MATTER WHAT.

    We true Americans embrace this with NO FEAR. FOR imigrants are we all!

  • Cenk's not for multiculturalism at least not primarily. He wants honesty in government and wants to bring back a little sanity to politics. I know sanity - politics, oxymoron, right. But at least let's have a debate. See TYT's coverage of the DNC and RNC and his discussions with participants.

  • All right then. how is this?

    fuck "multiculuralism" fuck what it means or does'nt. fuck Cenk. fuck you. and fuck me. We are all in this together now.

    Unless you make over 250 grand the choice is clear. OBAMA 08!

    And yes I'm a political firebrand bold enough to type my thoughts.

    THIS is how you do it Dems!

    Rove wants to start a cultural war? He has made a grave mistake...

    Remember we won Civil War. We will win again.

  • WOW, pwg357, Tell it like it is. I'm on your side man!

  • I'm in love with you Cenk for reporting this...

  • wow, you are one bitter, warped individual. You think that we should be drilling on our coasts? You think that democrats vote more than one? You are swallowing every republican talking point. If the drilling bill is passed-the oil companies will just have more leases on the books, increasing their assets-how does that benefit you or any other American?

  • You must be a mailman to be as stupid as you are.

  • Mailman - Show me ONE case of a voter voting more than once? Repubs are using the FEAR of that (no actual evidence at all) to do what the can to DESTROY DEMOCRACY. You look down on community organizing because you wouldn't stoop to helping a poor person or a minority, would you? You'll just sit in your 7 mansions, just like McCain, and claim that you're "one of us". Finally, as Cenk said, the more voters, the more it helps Democrats - those are the facts on the ground.

  • Do we have any watchdog groups or any anti-caging legislation? Or do we have to win by 5 points to win at all?

  • "If you're not pissed, you're not paying attention"

    Great quote... nice to see you back, Cenk

  • People are saying you guys should have a day off to vote and after seeing this, I agree

  • Hey the Republicans won't be happy until they put all Blacks and Mexicans in slavery.

  • What about taking people's voting rights if they commit a felony? It's the same thing. There are a lot of people with felonies because of the insane Drugs on War, that they can not vote to change.

  • they can fight in the war in Iraq. I heard Bush was taking prisoners and enlisting them, has that been debunked?

  • If the Repubs steal another election...

  • Use there own dirty tactics. Register Republican, and vote Democrat. ;)

  • I'll speak for everyone when i say OH SHIT!!

  • look on wikipedia for "voter caging" it's very scary.

  • Whoa!

  • Great example of the real GOP agenda =/

  • You pronounced Macomb wrong.

    I think its kinda crazy you need to live somewhere to vote.

  • damn that is messed up

  • incredible.

  • I say that we begin the revolution now if McCain wins let the revolution against the government begin.

  • The revolution should begin regardless.. Obama has already declared war on our constitution.. he voted FISA and renewed the patriot act... he doesn't address our flawed monetary policy and the shenanigans of the federal reserve. He clearly want's to continue the imperialistic nature of our country even after our for fathers like James Madison told us such actions would always lead to decline in our civil liberties at home. No my friend.. the revolution starts now. Convince Obama he's ben wrong.

  • Yes, that is true. The Dems are just as evil as the Republicans. I'm supporting Obama because of who he is as a man and a leader, and because of most of his policies, not because he is a Democrat.

  • wow, I got 6 thumbs down... was I lying? Who are the hacks who think I deserved that? I swear the partisan politics of this country are tearing it apart. People are totally incapable of being objective or even being able to see the shit in their own back yard. But they can sure see it in rivals yard. Pathetic.

  • You made the mistake of mentioning Ralph Nader, and the Dems have never stopped blaming him for "costing them the election in 2000." We need a parliament. This two-party system is crushing our freedom.

  • Yeah? Well it wasn't a mistake. It's the truth... I respect your parliament option. But lets first stop giving the repugs and dems federal money to run their campaign. Open the debates to other parties and make it illegal to block ballet access! The system isn't at fault.. it's the highjacking of our government that's the problem.

  • Whoah, buddy. I agree with you. Pick a fight with these other guys.

  • I said that i respect what you said... any angst you may have felt in there certainly wasn't directed at you.
