There is a new post upstairs about Howard Dean. Maybe you should copy this one up there. Thanks for the heads up; I've been waiting for the followup since I first read the story. 275: keep reposting this link and info; it is important that we know as many of BO’s lies and the threatening action of his BOT’s.

That there was voter fraud? All we see is a book that someone says has complaints in it. Were there really complaints? What kind? Okay, someone in some podunk town cheated, but so what. Was it enough to swing the election? Was it enough to swing Texas? Or is the film trying to show that BO's district did not change for the better? Are you sure the Hyde Park area pictured was part of the Obama district--there was some redistricting, and after 30 minutes of googling I can't find a map of the 13th senate district in 1997-2004, maybe this one? http://www.illinoisatlas.com/illinois/political/pdf/il_legdist_chicago.pdf Other maps show this district quite a bit to the west and not on the lake. I do remember seeing BO on the ballot when I lived in Blue Island just south and west of the Chicago city boundary--no where near Hyde Park or the lake. This documentary is great for true believers and I enjoyed it here and at the preview in Denver. I think it shows greater truths than just maps and has great potential. But if it is to be anything more than a feel-good hopey, changey movie, someone needs to remember back to what we all learned in English 101 about how to outline. What is your topic sentence? -Nijma the Grammar Nazi The documentary is trying to show—what?

Once Palin was scheduled to be there it is now an 'election' event and by being there with Palin, her apperance is as a representative of Obama's campaign. If she is trying to distance herself from him, this would not be a good move. IMO, I think she was smart to pull out of the Protest.
