Systematic disenfranchisement IS electoral fraud! While it's important to discover how they tampered with ballots and machines, we've been on an egg hunt while they run out the clock. Meanwhile, an obvious crime that should unite all persons of conscience gets overlooked.

The suppression of black voters, and the dynamics behind it, should be obvious to people who've never even heard of "black box voting". Moreover, our heros in this fight have included prominent African Americans, one of whom has clearly invoked the legacy of civil rights. I, for one, won't be conned into regarding that legacy as a quaint relic.

While I differ slightly with the author's perspective, (it leans too far in the "where's mine?" direction), who can blame her? As I feel her struggle is OUR struggle, I will take the liberty to reframe it: we've ALL "been had"; we've ALL "been took".

I am a white American, and I declare that the history of civil rights is MY history; it is AMERICAN history. And I will NOT be conned into sweeping it under the rug. Let us join hands.
