American Justice and Politics

SEVERE that is the only proper paradigm I can provide for the American System of Politics and Justice. Open court rules, take "no prisoners" and stop at nothing to achieve results. The newest missive from the Dems at the Republicans is that Attorney General Gonzalez has resigned due to improprieties in voting investigations. His accusers, and there are many in the Dems ranks, say that as Attorney General he ordered that all Democratic Voting Irregularities be investigated to the max to determine fraud. Nothing on Republican Voters. It is at junctures like this that I appreciate our Canadian System of Justice and Government. The impartiality of the Chief Electoral Officers and their staff. Public servants with honourable undertakings and whom provide a good third party view as opposed to the Attorney Generals Office in the U.S.. Our system may have troubles but Voting Irregularities (of this magnitude anyways) are not one of them. We just need voters to turn out and become engaged especially in the 18-35 year old Category. Now there is a question for a Royal Commission Study..why do Canadian Voters not vote and what can we do to change that?
