ACORN Fraud is Destroying America From Within. Corruption and Misrepresentation to Fulfill an Elite Agenda Are Only the Beginning for Obama and His Chicago ACORN Minions.

ACORN fraud refers to the Association of Community Organizations For Reform Now, or ACORN. It was founded in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1970 by Wade Rathke, who had previously been an organizer for the National Welfare Rights Organization (NWRO).

Whether or not Rathke made the decision independently to move to Little Rock and start his own advocacy group is a subject of debate. The NWRO may have actually sent Rathke to Little Rock to establish a new organization, some suspect. They had openly advocated an agenda to force the government to take care of all citizens and as the grassroots movement grew, so did its opposition.

Only five years after Rathke founded ACORN, the National Welfare Rights Organization bankrupted itself and disappeared. The Association of Community Organizations For Reform Now has no outwardly obvious ultimate agenda. Rather, it focuses its marketing on a few specific issues like neighborhood safety, affordable housing, healthcare, and voter registration.

Many of the organization's activities have raised concern, but none more than its Get Out The Vote Campaign and voter engagement practices. Since 1998, there have been more than 30 ACORN fraud-related allegations in at least 17 different states. Several ACORN employees have been convicted for fraudulent voter registration.

The organization's website boasts of record success drumming up excitement for the 2008 presidential election, registering 1.3 million lower-income Americans to vote.

Many states now have on-going investigations into ACORN, reporting that possibly tens of thousands of the registrations were duplicates or forged. In Ohio they allegedly gave people money and cigarettes for registering, causing many to fill out multiple registration cards for more.

ACORN is an example of the voter fraud that is becoming more and more open in the United States today. The elite shadow government controls who gets elected and how, ACORN is simply one of the slip ups they wish they could hide.

IRRESPONSIBLE ACORN FRAUD

ACORN's repeated voter registration fraud has a serious effect on the election analysis process. Election boards across the country have been swamped with illegitimate voter registration cards as a direct result of ACORN voter engagement activities. Some are even taking legal action against the organization to compensate them for lost time.

ACORN's official position regarding allegations of fraud is that the organization as a whole should not be held responsible for the independent actions of its employees or volunteers. They claim to tell people the rules before they begin to work with them, and deny that any other measures should be taken to clean up their act.

The group did agree to pay $25,000 to King County in Washington state, covering the county's cost of investigating ACORN's fraudulent voter registrations. The prosecutor in the case said, however, the group's voter registration fraud was not politically motivated.

ACORN FRAUD CASES

Cases of voter registration fraud committed by ACORN employees have been popping up all over the United States. While election officials admittedly expect to find some mistakes and some duplicate registrations in any grassroots voter registration drive, the rate of ineligibility of ACORN voters is far higher than any similar organization.

Some suspect ACORN must be advocating extreme measures to succeed in getting more voters registered. While it does make them look good statistically-speaking, creating the facade of inspiring millions of poor Americans to vote, many say the group does more harm than good.

Similar techniques are reportedly used according to many allegations. ACORN fraud cases often involve blatant forgery, such as registering names and addresses from the telephone book and forging signatures. Duplication, or registration of the same person multiple times, is also very common.

One might wonder what it is about ACORN that attracts such corrupt employees and volunteers, and what incentive they have to forge voter registration cards.

OBAMA INVOLVED WITH ACORN

Although Barack Obama admits only to serving as legal counsel for ACORN in one case during the 1990's, many people suspect he has been more intimately involved with the organization. During the 2008 presidential election, the McCain campaign accused Obama of teaching ACORN employees in Chicago how to bully banks into approving mortgages for low-income families.

Obama proceeded to deny any affiliation with the organization during the presidential race, but his campaign reportedly paid a group closely related to ACORN $800,000 for their grassroots voter engagement effort in the primary.

It is undeniable that Obama has worked with the organization and has benefited immensely from their fraudulent efforts. The shadow elite slipped up this time but they have many other ways of getting their puppets elected.
