The right is very keen that you MUST have some sort of ID check to exercise your right to vote... and, somehow, very keen that you MUST NOT have some sort of ID check to exercise your right to buy a gun.

Are they rampantly hypocritical, or utterly stupid? You decide.

As i fucking said i'm not talking about democrats only, i am saying as a whole, no part affiliation, the poor must be taken care off. It's not an advantage it's the one most important thing of this nation for the people to have the right to vote, regardless of skin color, regardless of class, regardless of whether they have money or not. No one that is a citizen of the United States should ever be told they have no right to vote just because they don't meet some new requirement.

Can any of those inbred Tea Party hacks can disapprove any point Will McAvoy puts up on this video? No? Then why are they even here then?

I shed a tear. The power of truth is so strong, it makes me wanna believe what true Americans actually stand for.

I don't think there is a single thing in this show that isn't spot on.

XFerginatorX,

You keep saying you are choosing to ignore me - is that why you keep coming back to comment on what I said? When it comes down to it - people are seduced by the truth

YES! By the way get a job. Stop combing and scrubbing websites with right-wing propaganda.

Keep up the good work and please continue to propagate the message black ppl are somehow inferior and can never be whole unless whitey provides handouts. Remember - it is impossible to have an elder black person who does not drive to also perhaps want to vote Republican. No - that is too uncle tom for your liberal mindset. all REAL blacks are helpless and therefore should want to vote democrat
