If people need help, they need to ASK for it. Not sit passively and wait for "heroes" like you to ride across the range to save them. The ACLU is skilled at this shit--they should call them and A-S-K for some help. They'll get it free of charge, too, if the ACLU takes their case. But first, someone has to ...oh YES...get off their ass and ASK.

Leaders are supposed to LEAD. The Elders have a problem because their people are DISENFRANCHISED. No one outside the tribe gives a shit if these tribes vote, frankly, least of all the politicians who won't benefit by these folks casting ballots. They aren't MOTIVATED to help them. The ACLU is, though.

Get over yourself. Your statements are smarmily dramatic, but meaningless. You blab on and on, but you haven't explained HOW we get these people from the DISENFRANCHISED list to the VOTING column. "Stop permitting disenfranchisement" you say--well, HOW? Come on, cough up an idea or two.

At least I've come up with a few constructive suggestions, not just a dramatic "Americans must be permitted to vote!!"

And despite my suggestions, you finish up your diatribe by telling me it's just TOO HARD, too. So many TRIBES!! Logistic, cultural, and language challenges!! Oh, abandon hope!! There's not one sumbitch in each tribe who could provide liaison support to an ACLU rep? Not ONE?

And they don't necessarily have to do each tribe individually, now, do they?

Surely the ACLU knows a little about something called "Class Actions Suits?"

YA THINK????? Gee, I'll bet they do!!!!

But the tribes--not me, not anyone from outside the tribes--need to get their motivation working and ASK for help. Because boohooing about it, and saying "Gee, it's WRONG" ain't gonna enfranchise them. Neither is yelling at me. The ACLU might be able to help them, though. They've done it before...
