ACORNs falling from the Trustworthy Tree

Headlines today are laced with news of voter fraud across the midwest. The left wing group ACORN or Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now seeks to bring new voters into our democratic process. This organization targets lower income families, young voters, and minorities. Good, great, stupendous! It is everyone's civic duty to cast his or her vote in our election, and no election is more important than our presidential election. This group should not, however, be allowed to constantly harass and pursue potential voters until they register. It is sometimes so bad that voters register five or six times. The biggest controversy currently taking place is in the key battleground state of Ohio. As of now the the Secretary of State is facing federal charges for not doing enough to prevent voter fraud. In Indianapolis today news sources were reporting a 105% voter registration. ACORN claims to be an unpartisan organization. Why then would the organization target the demographics that primarily float to the left of moderate? The answer is simple: they are coraling votes for Barack Obama. Ohio is especially crucial to Obama's campaign and turning Indiana would ensure an Obama victory. Accusations have also been made against ACORN in the battleground states of Wisconsin and North Carolina.



If organizations like this are to exist we must ensure that they are strictly bipartisan and are run by bipartisan individuals. We cannot allow a voter registration organization to take advantage of our system. This is not the mid 19th century when our political system was corrupt and no one could do much about it. We must have completely 100% honest and fair elections so that the people's voice is heard. We can no longer trust ACORN and its supporters.
