I see you refuse to address the question of the lack of responsibility for not voting...

"Hey back in the date "...I assume you mean "back in the day"....so? That is not what is going on today. rwingers encourage lower turnout in a variety of ways, including making politics so odious to millions of Americans that they don't bother to participate.

Hey back in the date voting took place in bars to make voting easy... Also made the buying of votes as easy as a round or two of beer...

With all the headlines the Democrats shout about how important voter registration drives are, how in 2014 did Ferguson have a 8% to 12% voter turnout... A shameful institutional failure on the left... If in Ferguson, where else???
And of course, the NYT uses as a backdrop Republican policies as the cause... Instead they should point the finger to where it belongs, the failure by Ferguson voters to vote... The failure of the Democrats to get their vote out and registered... This is what grassroots should be about... Instead Democrats focus on OWS rather than what grassroots should be about...

>>>N.A.A.C.P. leaders are creating a door-to-door voter registration effort with a jarring reminder as its theme: "Mike Brown Can't Vote, but I Can." Senator Claire McCaskill, a Missouri Democrat, is working with others to hold a "candidate school" for people, including young black residents who say they want to serve on a city council or school board but need guidance on what a political campaign requires.
The attempt to galvanize voting comes against a backdrop of intense political struggles over the ballot in the state. In 2000, polls were kept open late in St. Louis because of long lines, and Republicans complained about possible voter fraud — one chapter in what would be a long battle over elections and voting.
