Going into the 2012 elections, the Republican Party appears to be a great disadvantage against a well-funded, well-organized “vote fraud denier industry” working overtime to keep ineligible names on ballots across the country. J. Christian Adams, a former attorney in the Voting Section of the U.S. Department of Justice, has identified several states with localities that have “implausible” registration numbers; meaning they have more names on the ballots than they have eligible voters.

Adams resigned from the DOJ after the department declined to pursue a voter intimidation case from the 2008 elections against members of the New Black Panther Party (NBPR) in Philadelphia. In his new book entitled: Injustice: Exposing the Racial Agenda of the Obama Justice Department, he describes how Obama’s DOJ deliberately avoids enforcing Section 8 of the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA), which calls for registration rolls to be purged of ineligible voters. At the same time, the DOJ is pushing “motor voter” lawsuits activated under Section 7 of the NVRA in an effort to uptick the Democratic turnout.

Thanks to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests Judicial Watch has filed, the collusion and cooperation between Obama’s DOJ and third party pressure groups is now well documented.

Not surprisingly, ACORN’s Project Vote figures prominently into the equation. But Anita MonCrief, a former Project Vote employee who has testified against the ACORN network in court, warns against fixating on Project Vote. The “vote fraud denier industry” as it is aptly described by Adams, includes several groups that deserve scrutiny. They are: The Brennan Center for Law and Justice, the Advancement Project, the NAACP, the ACLU, Demos, and the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. The financial backers standing behind this industry, according to “Injustice,” are the George Soros’s Open Society Institute, the Ford Foundation, the Carnegie Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation and Pew Charitable Trusts.

Bill Wilson, president of Americans for Limited Government, has commented, “The fact that Soros is spending large amounts of money to prevent voter fraud investigations is a bright red warning light that the sanctity of our election system is under unprecedented attack.”

The question becomes is the Republican National Committee (RNC) doing anything to prepare for the onslaught of fraudulent votes?

It is worth recalling that Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.), who was behind Republican Norm Coleman before a recount went into effect in 2008, turned out to be the extra vote needed to pass ObamaCare. Minnesota Secretary of State Mark Ritchie, who oversaw that recount, was maneuvered into his position by the George Soros “Secretary of State Project” and with backing from ACORN.

Godfather of the progressive movement, billionaire George Soros of The Open Society Institute is silently trying to destabilize the American democracy. Hiding behind well-financed front organizations, this Judas, who as a youth during World War II assisted in confiscating property of fellow Jews (as revealed in a 1998 "60 Minutes" interview), hides his nefarious financial empire offshore to avoid the scrutiny of U.S. financial regulators. He will use any means necessary to reshape the world in his own twisted, left-wing image.

With billions of dollars and insidious fifth-column maneuverings, Soros is attempting to encircle independent media outlets and replace the truth with his progressive "one world" dogma. What happens to those who stray from Soros' path? Ask Juan Williams, formerly of National Public Radio.

Using mouthpieces like the Huffington Post, Soros is relentlessly moving toward the destruction of our core American values.

Unfortunately, Mr. Soros has run into a problem; fearlessly, Glenn Beck of Fox News is exposing this elitist socialist in his insidious plot to reshape our nation and the world in his own distorted, godless image. If Mr. Soros is successful in his endeavor, hopefully we will receive better treatment than he gave his fellow Hungarian Jews 65 years ago.

Photo identification is a ubiquitous part of modern life in the United States and the world, and for good reason. To require a simple photo ID is a step in maintaining the integrity of the electoral process.

The thought that producing a valid ID when I write a check at the local mart is acceptable but abhorrent when it comes to electing the most powerful man in the world is utter lunacy. Terms like “voter suppression” are divisive buzz words used by left-wing elements for one purpose, to engender fear and gin up there voter base.

One can only wonder why legitimate elements within the United States would oppose taking reasonable steps to safeguard the most essential part of our democratic process. To quote myself "Perhaps those who oppose the idea of providing verification of citizenship are counting on votes that may not be legitimate".

The United States has traditionally been caught flat footed in dealing with its own vulnerabilities. In simple terms, our voting process is antiquated and susceptible to fraud and needs to be updated.
