Yes, she doth inevitably sing. Albeit a shrill and hollow voice doin' a
chorus of "Don't rock the boat". Yes we vote. Some believe the privilege
sacrosanct and a privilege extended to all. Others the results of voting
irrefutable. In this case WE THE PEOPLE is limited to those with judge's
credentials. Course they are kind enough to allow us to rank THEIR choices.
More power than I willingly afford Democrats or Yankees yet sometimes accept.
Thinkin' them credentials are kinda' an AIS poll tax to vote our choices,
unless of course they was to make them credentials readily obtainable with
some web courses. Some of us wouldn't be afeelin' like them freedom riders of
a few years back either. Best I remember they got some upset about not
gettin' to vote.
