who is a rising junior at howard university, and as fathers of daughters know, sometimes they will come to you and say very prophetic things. after watching the news, my daughter came in to me and said something i did not expect her to say. she said, dad, it seems to me like we won the battle but someone wants to make sure that we lose the war. and that is the message that is being sent to our young people with these new voter id laws. we won the battle. with the passage of all the civil rights act and voting rights acts. we win the battle every year every time we get the voting rights act funded and reauthorized. however, some one sent back, after 2008, where there were 5 million new voters registered. 4 million of which were african-american. some one said it s time for them to lose the war and let s begin, let s put in place a strategy and execute the stakticstaktic tactics that will cause them to lose the the war, and let s catch them flatfooted while the cheering ....
