ALEC Was Founded in 1973 by the LOSERS

"They (the American Legislative Exchange Council) have never forgotten that they were founded by people who couldn't win elections. So they put a lot of their energy on gaining the electoral process."

"ALEC is about tipping the playing field, about gaming the system, so that at the end of the day the people who couldn't win elections in the 1960's and 1970's, and frankly couldn't today, can prevail in an electroal landscape they have developed."

I have never seen it before - maybe you haven't either.

This is pretty good - worth your time

Eight minutes worth your time:





And ALEC's reactionary LOSER motivated behavior continues to this day.

ALEC drafted voter I.D. legislation, which has come up in state after state, "shortly after the highest general election turnout in nearly 60 years swept America's first black president into office with strong support from college students and people of color."

In the guise of preventing election fraud, voter I.D.bills, along with bills to end same-day registration, aim to suppress the vote by these same groups.
