There's a reason some people are working to make it harder to vote, especially for people of color. It’s because when we show up, things change.

He's more right than wrong here. Low minority turnout is the key to Republicans winning elections.

That's why I find it strange that Biden is the nominee.. it's a disaster, really. Trump is fragile and beatable.. but maybe not by Biden.

Must be really hard going to a polling place once every four years. Maybe take a couple of years to plan for this extraordinary and devastating trip into town...

Wonder if these same people can make it to the grocery store or church at least once a year... goodness, must be tough being a minority.

Never knew they had it so bad.

Thank God im not part of a voter base that my representatives acknowledge are too fricking lazy or dumb to arrive at a voting station and identify myself

Sit down Barack. You had 8 years of hope and change campaign with poor results.

Usually when people of color show up, someone gets shot.

Vote in person

Vs.

Vote by mail.


Ask yourself which one is more reliable and less risky.

He is right!
Real estate prices change
Retail store landscapes change
Crime rates change
Public school test scores change
Amount of litter and graffiti changes

So what he is really saying is, people of color are dumbasses and don't know how to vote in person.

The same people that complain about being oppressed when it comes to voting have no problem making it to the Government offices to apply for their “entitlements”...

I haven't heard any color-specific policies being thrown around. Curious where he gets that from.

Wow, a black(partly) guy perpetuating the racism of low expectations for 'poeple of color.' Like they are children who can't do any better.

It's the same with voting requiring an ID. How difficult is it to have a driver's license or state issued ID? Instead of requiring POC to meet some very minimal level of effort, we want to open a process to fraud to accomodate laziness.

Disinformation campaign?

The results of vote by mail are clearly documented; rampant fraud, dead people casting votes, and errors so deep that it takes weeks to sort everything out. This is reality, Barry... not disinformation.

And what did that Kenyan interloper change in race relations in 8 years besides being exponentially worse?

Barack's reliance on the race card sine leaving office illustrates his abject failure as president, 8 years in office and no legacy, sad tired old race card.

How about to the shoe store to get the newest Jordans? Or the ATT/Verizon/T-Mobile store to get the newest phone?
