Thread Name: New Hampshire Redux
Subject: RE: New Hampshire Redux
The reason Dennis Kucinich is calling for a recount is NOT for his own benefit, it's on a matter of principle, and he has stated that. The recount, if voting fraud has occurred in New Hampshire, would stand to benefit Obama, not Kucinich, and Kucinich knows that, and he has made that clear in no uncertain terms. Therefore he is asking for a recount NOT for his own gain, curmudgeon, but on behalf of democracy...on behalf of honesty in politics. He wants to remove computerized voting machines from the process and have all voting on paper ballots, which provide physical evidence after the fact. Computerized records can easily be altered. Paper ballots cannot.
How do you find that objectionable?
It is costing the Kucinich campaign money that they can ill afford to do this...and they're doing it on behalf of Obama!!! Because if anyone had that win stolen from them by fraud it was the Obama campaign.
The fact that Dennis Kucinich is doing this speak volumes for the man's character, because he himself doesn't stand to gain a thing from it.
