When he grabbed the Chamber of Commerce, which controls the national census the writing was on the wall. He's gonna allow groups like ACORN to control the census through redistricting and flooding the polls with phony registrations.

I think the next two elections will be similar to the Iranian election because an unpopular party and an unpopular President will still win in a landslide. And if we have a problem with it all of the new controls he's currently putting in place will be put into effect and end up costing us in the pocketbook.

Sure he doesn't like the violence but what the Iranian government did to keep power in the hands of the current President is not very different from what Obama has in mind.
