"Deriving their just power from the consent of the governed" (as long as they can prove to Republicans that they're worthy)

Happy 4th of July everybody:
One would have thought that after 2000, Americans would have gone out of their way to secure the franchise for the people, made voting simpler, ensured the integrity of the count. Instead we are doing this.
Who's winning again?
Sorry for the bad mood on the 4th, but well ... it's bad. Democracy itself is under attack. I don't think Thomas Jefferson had this sort of thing in mind when he wrote the great document.
