Block Voting Should Stop - For the Good of America

Currently we have groups of people who vote in "blocks", they all vote the same as being part of a group identity or common association. This includes Jews, blacks, and union members....they tend to all vote the same. In a sense, this gives up personal identity as well as one of our most precious and sacred rights as an American...the right to vote. Let's look at why this should stop for reasons of personal integrity, as well as for the good of America.

While it was understandable why most Jews in years past voted in favor of traditional democratic party candidates, it is no longer the same party. The Democratic Party has very clearly shifted to the far left. This definitely includes anti-Semitism, as well as being anti-Israel. In addition the party's unwritten platform clearly contradicts the religious, spiritual, and traditional values of Judaism. It is now like spitting in one's own face to blindly vote democratic, but this is what has happened with recent elections.

Since the necessary civil rights movement in our country, in recent years many black leaders have purposely kept black people in the position of being "victims" and have manipulated this approach for their own personal gain, while doing little for people of color. They have encouraged black people to all vote democratic. Yet the Democratic Party has taken their votes with minimal benefit. The proof lies in the results. Louisiana, as just one example, in the past was lead by many corrupt politicians who took, but did little for the people. New Orleans, under the democrats, has been a continual disaster where many people of color stayed in a state of poverty. The same holds true for the cities of Detroit, Chicago, Los Angeles, St. Louis, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Cleveland, El Paso, Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Newark, and more. Does this condition dictate block voting in favor of the democrats?? It is time for some new thinking.

The problem with union members voting in a block should be as clear as a bell. Union leadership today is more corrupt than ever, and it is much more than taking funds out of pensions plans and political favoritism. Many of the leaders of the larger unions are outright socialists, even Marxists. Listen to their words. They are attempting to take the socialist "distribution of wealth" theme internationally. This means higher pay for workers in foreign countries at the expense of America and American workers. The tremendous loss of manufacturing jobs in the United States in favor of foreign countries is a direct result of globalist leaders of unions. In order to exercise more control over union members, and manipulate them, they are attempting to take away a union members right to a secret ballot when it comes to voting on union matters. What could be more sacred? The bottom line is that union leaders are USING union members to achieve THEIR goals, not for the benefit of members. Union members should clearly think through whether they want to continue to vote in block under the direction and beckoning call of union leaders. The American people have great respect for union members, and the American worker...that isn't the issue. It is the current leadership...more corrupt, more anti-capitalism, and even more anti-democracy than ever.

Voting in blocks should stop, starting with the elections of November 2010 and continue thereafter. Our country is in deep trouble. What America needs is the personal identity and integrity of the individual voter...not block voting.
