The NAACP called on the UN to intervene in the United States ahead of the 2012 elections. The far left former rights group claims that new voting laws that require voters to present an ID are racist.
FOX News reported:
The NAACP is calling on the United Nations to intervene as it claims state governments are colluding to “block the vote” for minority communities ahead of the 2012 election — a charge those governments vehemently deny.
The nation’s biggest civil rights organization this week released a report that claimed a raft of new voting laws at the state level would disenfranchise minority voters. The report said 14 states passed 25 measures “designed to restrict or limit the ballot access of voters of color.”
The report catalogued several categories of laws that have been passed largely by Republican-dominated legislatures and which Democrats have decried in recent months as tools of voter suppression. The new laws include requirements to present photo ID at the polls, voting restrictions on felons and limitations on registration and early voting periods.
Supporters of the laws describe them as common-sense measures meant to ensure the integrity of elections. In Tennessee, which is implementing a new photo ID law, elections coordinator Mark Goins dismissed the criticism and questioned why the NAACP would flag the United Nations over its concerns, calling that effort “a bit extreme.”
“I don’t know what the benefit of going to the U.N. would be,” he said. “I can’t imagine any authority whatsoever that they would have here in

Am I wrong in thinking that all this is because the NAACP is anticipating Obama losing in a landslide?

OMG!!!
We have shown our ID’s for years in my state. This racist organization has some outlandish and racist views and yet, they still our a group of extreme individuals who have been working for Obama so intently and I suppose between ACORN, SEIU AND SOROS THAT ISN’T ENOUGH FOR THE LEFT WING RADICAL.
UN? ahaha I would like to see that happen. Democrats are running scared that their MESSIAH is going to lose and big. Does this mean that all the past elections have been illegal with many improprieties, YOU BET YA. and now, we are making it a bit more legal, hope so, because we can’t take another commie in our White House.

The answer is obvious: The black turnout in the 2008 election was at record levels. The left will explain the inevitable decline in turnout as being due to voter suppression rather than the obvious dissatisfaction with obama.
In fact I wager that the left accounts for any decline regardless of any demographics as the result of right wing voter suppression.

Mahdi Al-Dajjal commented:
Oh I get it now. The NAACP screams voter suppression which causes Obama’s Injustice Dept to summarily declare the election results null & void, which causes blacka to come out of the woodwork and start rioting and burning down cities which, in turn, gives Obama a reason to declare martial law and suspend the constitution until law & order can be restored! Got it…

while the demand that showing an i.d. is violation of their rights, i bet they would be the first to drag some teller, sales associate, etc over the coals if a service is provided on their account to someone who has stolen their identity. imagine the guy who is demanding his right to vote and not provide an i.d. arguing with a bank, store, etc over a bill he has where goods were sold to someone else and no one bothered to ask for i.d.?
Militant Conservative commented:
Basic statistics, blacks are only 12% of population.
Obama has given up on the white votes (they got him
Elected). Nobody gets to the WH without a MAJORITY
Of the white voters. Guilty liberals and stupid
College students voted the terd into office.
Gee, what segment is not finding jobs?! Oops,
Guess he boned his constituents. ROFLMBO!
He’s toast, just vote for the repub candidate.
Whomever it is and no third party.

An ID should be required in every state to vote.. We could have avoided all of ACORN’S dirt had this been in place.
#1AMERICAN commented:
show your ID and have an IQ over 50 to vote…odumbo would have not gotten elected had that happened
MikeO commented:
OK: as my daughters, Irene Birungi and Winnie Nazziwa, would point out to the NAACP, in their country of Uganda, showing a government-issued ID to vote is a requirement. (Even people living in mud huts manage to get IDs; I’ve seen them.) So, if they want to go to ‘international’ on this, it’s either government IDs and/or dying the finger purple.

It is not racist to require an ID to vote! What is racist is to assume that minorities do not have an ID!!!!!!!!

NAACP are a sick bunch of MoFos.
Sam Stone commented:
NAACP knows damn well that “their people” as Eric Holder says, must have government issued ID to collect their benefits. They need a picture ID to fly on a plane. They need picture ID to rent a damn video or use a check cashing joint!
This is nothing less than an attack on the LEGITIMATE LEGAL voters in America.
For every illegal vote, a legal one is disenfranchised.
Sam Stone commented:
““I don’t know what the benefit of going to the U.N. would be,” he said. “I can’t imagine any authority whatsoever that they would have here in ”
The UN monitored the last election on 2008. And it was Bush no less that invited them.
Sam Stone commented:
SORRY! Correction: it was the 2004 election Bush invited the UN in to monitor the election.
greenfairie commented:
It’s common in most countries to show ID before voting.
Why isn’t the NAACP concerned about forged signatures used to put Obama on the ballot in Indiana?
(By the way, forget about trying to prove Obama was born in Africa or Constitutional nitpicking over “natural born citizen”…the Indiana ballot fraud ought to deem him unfit to serve immediately.)

And to top it all off, NAACP members are arrested for absentee voter fraud in Georgia.
Case in point: November 23, 2011 – 12 people have been charged in Georgia for voter fraud as they used absentee ballots to skew an in election in Georgia. The 12 people charged are ALL with the Democrat Party. The defendants include some workers in the voter registrar’s office and some school board members. They are Angela Bryant, April Proctor, Brenda Monds, Debra Denard, Lula Smart, Kechia Harrison, Robert Denard, Sandra Cody, Elizabeth Thomas, Linda Troutman, Latashia Head, and Nancy Denard.
The charges followed a bitter November 2010 school board election in Brooks County in which the final tally was changed by an unusually large wave of absentee ballots.

While NAACP President Benjamin Jealous lashed out at new state laws requiring photo ID for voting, an NAACP executive sits in prison, sentenced for carrying out a massive voter fraud scheme.
In April 2011, a Tunica County, Miss., jury convicted NAACP official Lessadolla Sowers on 10 counts of fraudulently casting absentee ballots.
Sowers received a five-year prison term for each of the 10 counts…..
“This crime cuts against the fabric of our free society,” Judge Webster said.
Sowers was found guilty of voting in the names of Carrie Collins, Walter Howard, Sheena Shelton, Alberta Pickett, Draper Cotton and Eddie Davis.
She was also convicted of voting in the names of four dead persons: James L. Young, Dora Price, Dorothy Harris, and David Ross.
In the trial, forensic scientist Bo Scales testified that Sowers’s DNA was found on the inner seals of five envelopes containing absentee ballots.

Call their legal department and let this subversive organization know your thoughts. I did. They need to be investigated for anti American activities. They know by passing these laws, they won’t be able to commit fraud, and put their fraud in the White House again. Let them know we’re on to them. They need to be investigated. They’ve gotten away with way too much.

Requiring a photo ID would slow down the voting of all those with multiple IDs with multiple photos. They would have to change their appearance for each different vote. Polls are not open long enough for some to use all their different IDs. Poll workers should also have a book with the pictures of all wanted felons to compare questionable IDs to. Lets take these felons off the street at the polls.
