A nationwide voters registration and civil rights restoration kickoff was called by Senator Barack Obama on May 10, 2008.

As an answer to that call volunteers have been very active at the street of Miami in neighborhood such as Little Haiti and Liberty City, with a mixed population but the majority being black folks that have been disenfranchised in Florida, by revoking their civil rights after a conviction.

Florida is among a number of states that doesn't restore automatically the civil rights of convicted felons upon release, a measure that Obama is talking about going to pursue as part of his drive for chance in the Nation, but which will have to wait until he become the next president of the United States of America.

The presence of this volunteers of all races have been welcome by the citizens, that see this effort as a GOD sent help, since they are providing a vast of related voting services, such as: New voter registration, address change, name change, card replacement, signature update, among others. Particularly the civil rights restoration is a burdensome process to carry with the Florida authorities.

    WRONG! What about somebody who did something stupid with a group of friends 15 years ago, and the situation had no effect on anybody other then the one who committed the offense? And you are not perfect either. You just have not been caught yet!

  • If you have been convicted of a felony, you deserve to lose your civil rights, I don't care what race you are.

  • Hmmm...
