Power Corrupts. Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely

What has happened in Michigan, I believe is THE most radical thing that Republicans have done anywhere in the country.

They have eliminated
Democracy
The have eliminated
voting rights
at the local level in their state.
They have tried to eliminate
Democrats voting rights in the state legislature

Whether you are on the left or on the right or in the center or if you don't particularly care about politics
if all you care about is that we have a form of government in this country
called democracy
we vote
if you care about the idea that we still use voting here
if you still care about the constitution -

frankly
Michigan ought to have a flashing red light siren on it right now
- Rachel Maddow


See the entire 16 minute segment of her show describing in detail how Michigan's Republican Party has flagrantly violated their constitution in 546 illegally passed bills since they took power in 2011.

Michigan GOP takes away Right to Vote (even from Democratic legislators)

If you are an African-American living in Michigan there is a 50/50 chance that this year, the state of Michigan has considered scrapping your right to vote, scrapping away your right to elect local officials to represent you. - Rachel Maddow
