Obama wants to force people to vote

US President Barack Obama would like to require people to participate in secular politics through voting:

March 18, 2015

Obama floated the idea of mandatory voting in the U.S. while speaking to a civic group in Cleveland on Wednesday. Asked about the corrosive influence of money in U.S. elections, Obama digressed into the related topic of voting rights and said the U.S. should be making it easier – not harder- for people to vote.

Just ask Australia, where citizens have no choice but to vote, the president said.

“If everybody voted, then it would completely change the political map in this country,” Obama said, calling it potentially transformative. Not only that, Obama said, but universal voting would “counteract money more than anything.” http://www.aol.com/article/2015/03/18/mandatory-voting-obama-says-it-would-be-transformative/21155060/?icid=maing-grid7%7Chtmlws-main-bb%7Cdl1%7Csec1_lnk3%26pLid%3D629957

As far as transformation goes, it is widely believed that if all people voted Barack Obama’s political party (the Democrats) would benefit more than the major opposition party (the Republicans).

Any in the USA who think they are ‘free’ need to think about forced voting.

If voting is mandatory, will the USA government later decide to use its National Security Agency (NSA) for surveillance to see how people vote?

Stranger things have happened.

For those who hold to Church of God doctrines like not voting (see Should a Christian Vote?), it is not likely that Barack Obama would allow them to exempted.

So, how would faithful Christians handle this?

Well, in the unlikely event that voting was made mandatory in the USA, Christians would go to the polls as forced, go into the voting booth as required, and do nothing if that is an option, or try to express human their preferences amount on the fewest needed to comply with the law.

It is basically my understanding that this is how faithful Christians handle this in countries that currently have mandatory voting laws.

Forced voting is not something that smacks of freedom. Of course, as I have been writing for years, the USA is not the land of the free anymore. The fact that Barack Obama would even dare to bring this up publicly shows that the USA is departing even further from some of the principles it was supposedly founded upon.
