'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' Enforcement Must Be Halted, Federal Judge Rules

There are about 306 million Americans, of which about 100 million of us vote. 50 million Americans are children, underage, ineligible to vote. The other half of America doesn't vote. Political parties try to expand their membership, but it's an expensive and difficult proposition. They spend their resources on identifying where likely voters are for targeting (and where voters who are likely to vote for their party hang out for the sales pitch).



Democrats traditionally have found college and university campuses to be good places for recruitment. But our modern American lifestyle doesn't lend itself to steady & consistent watering holes where we gather past our university years. We get in our cars, we drive to work, we go home and a few places in between.

Evangelical Christians, some of the most ig.no.rant & hypocritical souls ever to draw breath on the planet, and who can be found & pitched to at least once a week in their churches. RalphReed told Rove that he could organize the Bible Belt churches & reliably deliver them to the Republican Party; he's been doing so ever since.
