The election/voting fraud piece on Bill Moyers was very interesting. In some ways I think it’s only natural for politicians to gain every advantage possible, but some of this stuff is pretty underhanded. Yet it seems that no matter what happens the process will always be succeptible to manipulation or failure. Maybe we just need to have all of our politicians settle things in the octagon, UFC-style. Or better yet a trial by ordeal, where the candidates are tortured and brutalized to the satisifaction of an angry mob and whoever survives wins.
