I've got mixed feelings about this as a registration process. To me it just makes it too easy for someone who is too lazy to take the time to go register. If you're too lazy to do that to exercise your right I don't think it should be allowed unless you have a valid medical reason. If you're too lazy to do that you're probably too lazy to take time to research the candidates and that just makes it easier for folks like Al! I'd like opinions after you check out the link! www.beavoter.org

I am against the "get out the vote" thinking. I think that people who vote should have informed themselves of the issues and be able to vote with knowledge.
Educate the sheep first, then they will want to vote.

Nikita Khrushchev predicted confidently in a speech in Bucharest, Rumania on June 19, 1962 that: " The United States will eventually fly the Communist Red Flag...the American people will hoist it themselves."

I think the leftists like to get out and bus people to the polls they think will vote for their candidate. They probably hint at who they might want to vote for, too. I guess they have the freedom to do that. Conservatives should do likewise.

Keiller, my congressman has made it a practice to go around to every nursing home, even government-funded ones, and bring donuts. On election day, they bring schoolbuses to the homes to take the residents to the polls. The congressman's volunteers knock on every resident's door to make sure they went and voted.
On the day of the election, I usually hang out at the gun shops and ask anyone coming or going if they voted yet. One shop owner has been especially helpful. Four years ago, I approached two young guys who were going to shoot at the shop's range. They hadn't voted, and said they didn't itend to. The shop owner told them that if they didn't vote, they could never shoot at his range again. And he kicked them out. Seemed right to me.
