Powerful words in the Appendix to The Declaration of Independence are worth remembering. The United States of America still stands by these words, which are as powerful today as the day they were written. The action of the Second Continental Congress, on July 4, 1776, addressed the King of England, who they compared to a tyrant, included these excerpts, among other poignant words:
“We hold these truths to be self-evident,
that all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,
that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
“Prudence, indeed,
will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes;
and, accordingly, all experience hath shown,
that mankind are more disposed to suffer,
while evils are sufferable,
than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
“But when a long train of abuses and usurpations,
pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism,
it is their right, it is their duty,
to throw off such government,
and to provide new guards for their future security.
“Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies;
and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government.
“The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations,
all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these States.
“To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world:
He has refused his assent to laws,
the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
“He has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance,
unless suspended in their operation till his assent should be obtained;
and, when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
“He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people,
unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature,
a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
“He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable,
and distant from the depository of their public records,
for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
“He has refused for a long time,
after such dissolutions,
to cause others to be elected;
whereby the legislative powers,
incapable of annihilation,
have returned to the People at large for their exercise;
the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without,
and convulsions within.
“He has endeavored to prevent the population of these States;
for that purpose obstructing the laws for naturalization of foreigners;
refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither,
and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands.
“He has obstructed the administration of justice,
by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers.
“He has made judges dependent on his will alone,
for the tenure of their offices,
and the amount and payment of their salaries.
“He has erected a multitude of new offices,
and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people,
and eat out their substance.
“He has affected to render the Military independent of,
and superior to,
the civil power.
“He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution and unacknowledged by our laws;
giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation:
For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world;
For imposing taxes on us without our Consent;
For depriving us, in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury;
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences;
For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws,
and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments;
For suspending our own legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
“He has abdicated government here,
by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us.
“He is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death,
desolation and tyranny,
already begun with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages,
and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation.
“He has excited domestic Insurrections amongst us.
“Our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury.
“A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant,
is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.”
November 3, 2020, the citizens of the United States of America have the right and privilege to cast votes for the next President of the United States. All votes matter. All votes will be counted. Mail-in votes will be counted. Our hard-fought-for Democracy is on the line in this Presidential election.
To say mail-in votes shouldn’t or can’t be counted is fraud.
Some people, try to cast doubt about mail-in voting, by saying it is too new and untried. This is not true. History shows we have been using mail-in voting since the Civil War.
Others who say there is not enough use to know if mail-in votes will be susceptible to fraud, have no basis to say this, based on the US history of mail-in voting record.
The entire US Military, all students in schools outside their own states, and five states have been using mail-in voting solely. Also 29 states have been using it with no excuse needed and then there are the other 17 states that use it if you have an excuse for not being in the state on election day. Most politicians and diplomats use it too.
As to fraud, according to an article in Reuters, “The conservative Heritage Foundation, which has warned of the risks of mail voting, found 14 cases of attempted mail fraud out of roughly 15.5 million ballots cast in Oregon since that state started conducting elections by mail in 1998.” In past elections 1 in 4 votes were cast by mail.
Saying mail-in ballots will create fraud is, plainly put, fraud.
God Bless You All
