imagine if you were the beneficiary of disenfranchisement. imagine if you won an election because certain people were not allowed to vote.
wouldn't you feel awful? i mean, nobody wants to win that way. at least nobody with a conscious.
and from what i have seen of obama, he certainly has a conscience. so i'll bet that it is tearing him up inside to see the votes of floridians and michiganders thrown away.
it's like a little league baseball game in which the other squad does not have enough players to field a team. the team with enough players wins by default.
no one likes to win that way. and bragging about victory the next day at school is pointless, because the children know that the game was never played.
because i love to play baseball so much, i would be disappointed that the game was never played. i would rather lose and honest game than win by forfeit.
and considering the long history of disenfranchisement of african americans in this country, i'll bet obama feels especially bad about the exclusion of two high population states.
i know that he doesn't want to win that way. it must be tearing him up inside. i'm sure he wants to count every vote.
UPDATE: Based on the number of responses, the venom in those responses, and the troll ratings of my comments that violate no site rules, i can only assume that i have touched a sensitive nerve.
seriously, if i was just writing crazy nonsense, i would have been ignored.
