THOSE IN THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION ARE SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING IMPLEMENTING AN AFFIRMATION ACTION PROGRAM FOR RECENTLY RELEASED CONVICTS. ACCORDING TO THOSE AROUND THE PRESIDENT, EX-CONVICTS ARE THE MOST DISCRIMINATED AGAINST GROUP IN AMERICA AND IT IS TIME THAT MEASURES ARE INSTITUTED TO CORRECT THESE PAST GRIEVANCES. IN A SOMEWHAT RELATED MOVE THE ADMINISTRATION HAS INSTRUCTED FEDERAL EMPLOYERS TO DELETE THE BOX ON ALL JOB APPLICATION FORMS THAT ASK "HAVE YOU EVER BEEN CONVICTED OF A FELONY"! ADDITIONALLY, BECAUSE MANY STATES FORBID FELONS FROM VOTING THE GOVERNMENT WILL NOW REQUIRE THAT ALL FELONS BE GIVEN THE RIGHT TO VOTE, AT LEAST, IN FEDERAL ELECTIONS!
OF COURSE PARTS OF THE ABOVE POST ARE FICTION, BUT NEVERTHELESS POLICIES THAT COULD BE IMPLICATED SHOULD THE NATION CONTINUE DOWN THE ROAD TO OBAMAVILLE!
