Tomorrow is election day, but we may not know the results for weeks if ever. The presidency may not be determined by the votes of eligible citizens, but rather be decided by lawyers in court. They will argue and fight and accuse each other. They will order recount after recount until one side wears down and concedes defeat. The winning side will breathe a sigh of relief that all the cheating and illegal activities had paid off. And then a spokesman will tell the public that their noble efforts had resulted in the largest voter turnout in history. They won't tell you how many dead Americans or non-Americans voted, or how many voted twice or how many ballots vanished before they could be counted.
The noted political scientist, Walter Dean Burnham, said that America has "the modern world's sloppiest electoral systems." Our system is not only vulnerable, but actually invites fraud.
I just finished John Fund's excellent book on the subject of voter fraud, titled Stealing Elections. The first edition had a few flaws, but the 2008 printing has been updated and is well-documented with the latest facts. Every American should read this book!
Fund, who writes for the Wall Street Journal and other publications, not only gives a clear picture of what is wrong, but also outlines what must be done to correct this miserable situation. He effectively counters arguments of politicians and parties who fight every attempt to clean up the mess.
I highly recommend this book!
