Good video. Sensible people get it. It's not voter fraud. It's voter registration fraud. ACORN hires people to register new voters. Some of those people give fake names on the registrations so it appears they actually registered someone to vote. The fraud is actually being committed against ACORN. ACORN is required by law to submit the registrations anyway. Since the names are fake there's not really a chance these people are going to show up to vote anyway so it's not really voter fraud.
The tie to Obama is that he represented ACORN in the 90's when he still practiced law. The suit was against the state of Illinois seeking to force the state to implement the "motor voter" law. Also, during the 2008 primaries, Obama gave ACORN around $800,000 to do what they do, which is register new voters. There's no evidence Obama was involved in any kind of voter fraud. In fact, just last week the Obama campaign requested a special prosecutor review investigations into ACORN to see if they were politically motivated.West Palm 2000 I & II/West Palm '03/Tampa '03/Kissimmee '04/Vic Theater '07/West Palm '08/Tampa '08/NYC MSG I & II '08/Philly Spectrum III & IV '09/Cleveland '10/Bristow '10/PJ20 I & II 2011/Pensacola '12/Pittsburgh '13/Denver '140 -

It seems like they are politically AND racially motivated.
