If all these questionable tactics in Florida were happening in Bolivia, we would
be condemning Bolivia. Think about it. Here we have a vice president,
supported by the party now controlling the presidency, who targets three
counties firmly in the control of his party, where the courts are also populated by
party appointees. 
<P>
I don't believe that a Republican-appointed judge has
heard even one of these cases. And to top it all off,
the Florida Supreme Court has seven justices, six of
whom are of the same party as the vice president,
and all of whom (including the registered
independent), were appointed by Democratic
governors. 
<P>
Meanwhile, the three counties undertaking recount
after recount after recount after recount after recount,
ad nauseum, changing voting standards as they go,
have caused the vice president's vote tally to
continually increase. 
Forty percent of the ballots cast by the military, which supports the opposition
candidate, are rejected - yet more and more ballots cast by local voters supporting the
vice president appear seemingly out of thin air. 
<P>
During the course of the recounts, ballots that are cast for the opposition candidate have
been counted for the vice president. Some of the ballots have tape on them, covering
votes cast for the opposition candidate. Some ballots that had been rejected earlier are
now counted, and the vice president's vote tally continues to rise as he inches closer and
closer to overcoming the opposition candidate's lead. 
<P>
Now say the law in this country requires a final vote tally one week after the election. The
purpose of the law is to, among other things, prevent manipulation of the final vote tally
after the election result is known. But at the 11th hour before the final vote tally was to be
certified - in accordance with long-standing law and before the opposition candidate could
be named the winner of the election and president-elect - what happened? 
<P>
The supreme court of the state, controlled by the vice president's party, stepped in, on
its own motion, which is virtually unheard of. That supreme court then ordered the
recount to continue, despite the irregularities and fraud, and prevented the opposition
candidate from being named the winner. 
<P>
Is there any doubt in anyone's mind that if this were going on in Bolivia, the U.S.
government would condemn it? Well, isn't this what is going on in Florida right now? The
Democratic Party has controlled the executive branch of the United States for eight
years. It has no intention of transferring power to the opposition Republican Party in a
traditional and civil way, and that's what's different about what's going on now. 
<P>
The Democratic Party, under Bill
Clinton, has lost its way. 
<P>
If we were witnessing this in any
other country, we would be laughing
about it, and we'd be calling the
country a banana republic. We'd be
chortling and chuckling and making
all kinds of jokes about it. But it's
not happening in Bolivia, or any
other banana republic. It's
happening in our own country. 
<P>
Follow what I've articulated here,
my friends, and you can't help but be blown away by it. It is something I never thought I'd
be describing happening in the United States. Yet it is. It's just overwhelming - and you'd
do well to read it, print it, and forward it to friends, because this is the kind of analysis
you simply won't find anywhere else.
