Do Democrats Trust Machines or do they "Trust the People"?

[Bandit]

Republicans made it quite apparent during the Florida recount when James Baker stood in front of the camera and said they trust only the machines because machines were objective while people were subjective. This after Bush* ran on a platform of "I Trust the People" We need to let it be known we actually "Do Trust the People" and it isn't just a sound-bite and because of that we demand a paper trail from every single election precinct so they can be recounted by actual living people if there becomes a problem. "We Trust the People" and mean it. Bush* has proved time and time again with his secret government that trusting the people is the very last thing on his agenda. Let it be known.

1. machines are made, and operated, by people

it's a false choice. it's not wise to trust either set.

2. So election are null and void because nothing can be trusted?

If you can't trust the election Judges and you can't trust the machines that count the ballots I guess elections should never be held. Or what is your solution? :shrug:
