Interesting Statistic
Professor Joseph Olson of Hemline University School of Law, St.. Paul , Minnesota , points out facts of 2008 Presidential election:
Number of States won by:
Democrats: 19
Republicans: 29
Square miles of land won by:
Democrats: 580,000
Republicans: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by:
Democrats: 127 million
Republicans: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by:
Democrats: 13.2
Republicans: 2.1
Professor Olson adds:
"In aggregate, the map of the territory Republican won by Republicanswas mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country.
Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare.
Professor Olson believes the United States is now somewherebetween the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler 'sdefinition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation'spopulation already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.
If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminalinvaders called illegals and they vote, then we can say goodbye tothe USA in fewer than five years.
apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom
