I'm pretty sure Obama or Hillary would be pretty pissed if e-mail voting was allowed in all 50 states. Probably bring up how insecure it is. Seriously, you CAN make it secure with a little extra effort. Or just have them vote for their candidates while deployed, count up the numbers and then wire them back to the US in time for the election. Just think, 500,000 votes that can potentially be useless. What happened to representative democracy? If we can't choose our candidate the system has failed. Plain and simple, changes need to be made and made before the 2008 election which is a major turing point in our history and our stance against terrorism and Islamic Radicalism. Yep.
