Census Control.
April 9, 2009I’ve been busy busy busy with school lately so I haven’t posted in awhile despite the major changes going on in this country. I’m going to post a brief update here just to get you guys thinking about whether or not it’s time to speak out (hint: it is).
Unless you are watching NBC news, it has become clear (at least to the thousands of people who have decided to participate in over 2,000 Tea Parties across the country on April 15th) that when candidate Obama talked about change, he meant he wanted to use the system to create permanent liberal control of the government.
*Our Constitution requires we take a population census every 10 years.*
As you know by now, the future shape of Congress, state legislatures and the balance of political power between states are at stake with the change in census control. This is because individual election district lines will be redrawn based on the Census figures. The census also determines changes in population and demographics across the country and impacts the amount of federal funds which are given to the states. It determines the number of Representatives each state has in the U.S. House and therefore the make-up of the Electoral College. The make-up of the Electoral College will determine the outcome of the 2012 Presidential election. In lieu of recent events and procedures enacted by the Obama administration, it seems very clear that they plan to rig the Census results. (Or maybe I’m jumping to my “bias right-wing crazy hate-monger” conclusions again.)
ACORN is a leftist, urban community organization that has had a *proven* history of promoting voter fraud. Obama’s friends from this organization have been now chosen to partner with the Census Bureau to determine population counts in cities around the country. This group has had a steady track record of coming up with limitless fraudulent voter registrations in heavily Democrat areas. This sways elections to favor ultra-liberals. With such a record, you can be sure they will be manipulating population numbers in the biggest liberal control scheme yet. And I’m sure ACORN’s members will be happy to help out the Obama administration after the millions of dollars handed over to them in the “stimulus” bill.
“Why is this important? The U.S. population has shifted in the last ten years. States like Illinois, Michigan, New York and Pennsylvania (all states Obama won in 2008) have smaller populations, and states like Arizona, Georgia and South Carolina (all states that John McCain carried) have gained population.
The trend illustrates that urban strongholds, which favor Democrats, continue to lose population to more decentralized areas in states more likely to lean Republican. If the Democrats and their friends at ACORN have their way, the Census will only “estimate” state populations and therefore be subject to political calculations. And surely their estimate will be far higher than the actual number of people, and voters, present. Our democracy, and the principle of “One Person, One Vote” are in jeopardy.”
And don’t take this as a Republican blog just trying to get as little of the liberals to vote as possible. I believe in the power of the people and I think the people should truly choose the president. On the contrary, if the majority of the population wants a liberal president, despite the fact that I don’t believe in most liberal policies…bring it on! That’s apparently what the hopefully informed population wants. And that’s how our government should work. (that’s one reason why I’m not for the electoral college…just think! George Bush probably wouldn’t have been president for 8 years if we didn’t have the electoral college) Census control in favor of any party is bad…especially because these days the Republicans in the government are basically the same as the Democrats. High spending, pork, and promises of one thing but doing the other behind our backs. It’s important for us to speak out against this.
We need to fight to bring our government back to the way our founding fathers wanted it to be.
