That is my point.

Scream bloody murder every time they try something.

Ain't happening.

How about shutting down the government for equal voting rights for all?

Having voting machines doled out according to population, so there isn't 8 hour lines in inner cities like we see every election.

A LOT more can be done, and it won't be.
