A Recap: 2000 Election

August 1, 2007 at 7:26 pm (Politics)

The American political process has turned me off. We all know about the infamous 2000 presidential election when President Bush failed to win the popular vote but was still able to win the election.

In 2000 Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris was hired to be President Bush’s Florida campaign co-chair. She was qouted as saying “I will deliver the state to George W. Bush.” During the recount she did exactly that. She hired the company ChoicePoint to find and remove the names of convicted felons. The majority of these names were African American voters who were not felons and had registered as Democrat. Florida was delivered to Bush without as much as an investigation. We have been treated to lies and cover-ups ever since.

 Just a little history lesson for you….
