A counter to Republican fear motivation
Republicans use fear and anger to motivate their minions out to the polls. This along with voter suppression has allowed them to steal our government from us.
I would like to suggest that the voter suppression issue is as powerful a motivator as right wing fear of others for motivating voters to the polls.
We must raise our awareness and indignation of voter suppression to the highest degree possible.
We must "brand" Republicans as liars and cheats. The thought that someone is working to stop citizens from voting should infuriate people if it is addressed as a message over and over at every opportunity.
No discussion of politics should take place without mentioning the lies and manipulation of voting.
