The Supreme Court doesn't think so (are there any reliable studies on this?):

I'm not sure what this is.
The quality of the journalism is so poor that it is not possible to comment.
What's your question exactly?
It you demand that there are new requirements to vote; this obviously discriminates against those that cannot meet those requirements. I don't see why you need a study to decide that.
Fewer minorities have photo-IDs. QED they are discriminated against.

I guess I'm asking if this is discrimination with intent against minorities?
I don't think that political attacks against Hillary will gain her opponents much favor in the eyes of the public.

Who cares what goes on in your sick fuck of a country? I've never seen any country where the people have so much violent hatred towards their own politicians, especially if those politicians show even a hint of intelligence. Strange, I never saw any real venom directed at the psychopathic pos Dubya Bush, but there are masses of videos calling Obama a homosexual, his wife a transexual, of Obama being beheaded, calls for him to be assassinated, he's a muslim jihadist, he doesn't suck Israel's balls vigorously enough etc. etc. etc.....Don't even get me started on Hillary...
Your whole country is fucked in its collective head.

It's a no brainer.
The fraud angle is a smokescreen. It's simply a way to exclude the poor.

All the more reason to allow more people to vote, rather than discriminate against minorities.
What you know about the USA, is totally filtered through its right-wing media. Everything you ever head about Obama is fuelled by them.

Right-wing media? For years I've heard the media being left-wing, the NY Times being a prime example.

You need a photo ID (a driver's license) to drive a car; what's wrong with photo ID to vote? It eliminates voter fraud. This is just another stupid liberal attack based on their stupid followers being too stupid to get ID.

Just the fact that your country could even produce something like Alex Jones, or Fox News, speaks volumes, even if many people there make fun of them. Why do you have to have 'wings' anyway? Can't you just be normal and rational?

Or to put it another way. You are ignorant. You've not got a fucking clue about the USA, you're proabbly still at school and living with your parents.
Who the fuck is Alex Jones?

That's part of the scam. One man's left-wing media is another's right-wing media. I've lived in the UK and the USA. There is NO left wing media in the USA: none.
In the US its right wing, far right wing and extreme right wing.

If you don't know who that is then why are you talking about right-wing media? I think I know more about your country than most Americans, and that wouldn't be difficult. Half of you don't even know who your President is lol.
