Have Americans Forgotten How To Hold Elections?



Anyone who has had but a smidgen of interest in daily events in the U.S. recently is aware that Donald Trump, the President of the United States, has gone all out to convince Americans they cannot trust their own ability to hold a fair election.  The Damage Report is confronting the issue head on with its reporting.  The Ring of Fire also adds some needed information.




To top it off he, Trump, is actively making plans to make of no effect the People's right to vote by sabotaging the ability of the USPS to deliver the mail used for voting during the COVID-19 pandemic.  The President is behaving in a way intelligence analysts recognize as the way dictators go about setting up shop. Link to MSNBC report on the danger of the Trump Administration's dictatorial tendencies.

To get right to the point.  The People can employ measures to counteract the intention of the President to deny them their march toward self-determination.

Something simple can be done like not using the mail for anything not essential for as long as necessary leading up to and during the election period.  Don't expect the government to orchestrate this. You'll be old and a veteran laborer in the salt mines if you wait for the government to see to it the election is on the up and up.

So I got to thinking we might save ourselves if we can convince THE PEOPLE, the same people whose future depends on being free in a just society, to make the effort to see to it that the work load of post offices will be reduced to a bare minimum. If that were done it would be difficult or impossible for Trump to make excuses for non-delivery of ballots without raising a lot of suspicion. 

Here's where the corporations that use the mail can be of a great help.  They can switch to another carrier until the votes have been all delivered and counted. It would be like was done during the previous world wars where the corporations were put to work for the public good. Remember, the situation is dire, the last un-elected President, G.W. Bush, in 2000 started a war that is still going on in one way or another and is not expected to end until world domination is complete.  I found an article on how corporations use the USPS.  The article can be read here.  

The article is obviously written from a pro corporate perspective. The point I wish to make is that the corporations who use this service now could and should find another way to deliver their packages during the election period. Another thing consumers can do is reduce all kinds of purchases that involve the USPS until the ballots have been delivered and counted. Do you really need that trinket as much as you think you do?  

Given the animosity of the Trump Administration directed toward the voting class the corporations could play a big part in defending democracy. (CNN report.) If they were to bite the bullet a little and cease to use the USPS during the critical election period for American voters it would relieve the system and remove the ability of the Trump Administration to argue effectively that the post office had failed to deliver the ballots.




The Trump Administration is arguing that since 2016 Americans have become unable to hold elections.  The President is arguing that letting people vote off the digital grid on paper mail in ballots will harm America and it's future.  

The President just might be lying again like he was lying about kids getting sick. (CNN report at link) Only this time he's lying about our democratic republic.  Lies, by the way, which if acted on will destroy the democratic processes that insure liberty and justice for all.  That's how serious the situation is folks!

Mr. President, kids can get sick and die and we THE PEOPLE do know how to hold an election.  It is you are the problem, not WE THE PEOPLE.

Now it is time for WE THE REAL PEOPLE to join with or coerce with boycotts the Corporate People to find a way not to use the Post Office until the votes are cast and counted.  Our democratic republic should be worth more than express overnight delivery. 

Obviously the President doesn't think it is and that is the evidence why this is the most serious time in the history of our nation.  Let it sink in.  We have a President so dead set against the People voting that he is willing to sabotage the means of THE PEOPLE to choose their own leaders. When that is accomplished what are you left with?

The President and the Republican Party have given the signals that their special interests trump the right of the people to direct their own fate. 

This is what we are witnessing now and if WE THE PEOPLE sit idly by watching the sideshow, laughing at the absurdity, instead of taking this seriously we will lose every right implied by the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.  

Now is the time to convince everyone, yes you corporate People too, to stop using the mail during this most important period.  By reducing the work load we can give the Postal Employees every opportunity to deliver our ballots and defend the democratic process. 

Trump and the Republicans most likely will still attempt to defraud THE PEOPLE of their right to self determination. THE PEOPLE can counteract his attempts by drastically reducing the use of the mail during the critical time of the voting process.  If we do that we might be able to demonstrate that the President is wrong about Americans not being smart enough to hold an election anymore.

That's all Folks!  Have a nice day!
