According to emails obtained by WikiLeaks, which is led by the embattled Julian Assange, Republican Senator John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign staff allegedly had evidence that Democrats stuffed ballot boxes in Pennsylvania and Ohio on election night. However, the candidate chose not to pursue voter fraud, according to internal emails obtained from the private intelligence and analysis firm, Stratfor.

Stratfor regularly reports on geopolitics, narcotics, security and terrorism, particularly overseas. The company, which was founded by George Friedman, has high-level subscribers including at least one former U.S. Secretary of State, various foreign governments, and intelligence agencies. The U.S. Marines and the Department of Homeland Security are also customers. In recent months, Stratfor was in the news because a still unknown party hacked the Stratfor website and obtained subscribers’ names.

The internal emails in this case provided insight into Stratfor’s interest in U.S. politics. In an email sent on November 7, 2008, entitled " Insight - The Dems & Dirty Tricks ** Internal Use Only - Pls Do Not Forward **," Stratfor vice president of intelligence Fred Burton wrote:

1) The black Dems were caught stuffing the ballot boxes in Philly and Ohio as reported the night of the election and Sen. McCain chose not to fight. The matter is not dead inside the party. It now becomes a matter of sequence now as to how and when to "out".

Two days earlier, Burton wrote an email entitled "Insight - McCain #5 ** internal use only - Pls do not forward **," :

After discussions with his inner circle, which explains the delay in his speech, McCain decided not to pursue the voter fraud in PA and Ohio, despite his staff's desire to make it an issue. He said no. Staff felt they could get a federal injunction to stop the process. McCain felt the crowds assembled in support of Obama and such would be detrimental to our country and it would do our nation no good for this to drag out like last go around, coupled with the possibility of domestic violence.
The Nov. 7 email also contains allegations that Democrats made a "six-figure donation" to Rev. Jesse Jackson to silence him on the topic of Israel after an October 2008 interview in which he said Obama’s presidency would remove the clout of “Zionists who have controlled American policy for decades.”

Burton, a former State Department official, wrote:

2) It appears the Dems "made a donation" to Rev. Jesse (no, they would never do that!) to keep his yap shut after his diatribe about the Jews and Israel. A little bird told me it was a "nice six-figure donation". This also becomes a matter of how and when to out.

Burton’s email also speaks to an accusation that candidate Barack Obama’s campaign accepted money donations from Russia, while noting that President Bill Clinton’s re-election campaign was alleged to have sought contributions from China to the Democratic National Committee.

Burton said:

3) The hunt is on for the sleezy Russian money into O-mans coffers. A smoking gun has already been found. Will get more on this when the time is right. My source was too giddy to continue. Can you say Clinton and ChiCom funny money? This also becomes a matter of how and when to out.

Stratfor’s Burton is a former Deputy Chief of the Department of State's counterterrorism division for the Diplomatic Security Service (DSS). Besides conducting background checks and investigations of U.S. diplomatic personnel and providing embassy security, the DSS assists the Department of Defense in following leads and doing forensic analysis of hard drives of computers seized by the U.S. government in ongoing criminal investigations.

WikiLeaks has published 973 out of what it says are 5 million internal Stratfor emails (dated between July 2004 and December 2011) obtained by the hacker Anonymous in 2011.

What a surprise. I wonder if they investigated the black panther's intimidating voters as well?

It wouldn't surprise me if election fraud was much more prevalent than we think. The very fact that diebold even got any contracts without massive protests is evidence of the people's apathy (or ignorance?).

Add in the obvious fanaticism we see in our two-party system...

Edit: It's a recipe for election fraud.

Wikileaks? That guy is a rapeist! Julian assange? Come on man we cant trust him. What the heck is sperofurum? some kind of conspiracy website?

This has been a public service announcement.

yes, and thats why E. Holder is such an *** when it comes to showing ID when voting... Liberals need to cheat to win...

Even if he were a rapist - that has no bearing on whether the information he passes on is accurate.

That has to be examined on its own terms.

Sometimes liberals win by a landslide without cheating.

But sure, some liberals will undoubtedly cheat to win if they could get away with it.

Also, some republicans will undoubtedly cheat to win if they could get away with it.

Hell...........both sides of the political coin are flawed! We need another choice!!!!

This Obummer campaign? There is a movie coming out this summer, this is a bit of a build-up to it.

If Romney wins, we will have to call him Bushhusseinmitt.

All three are from the same mold and represent the elite crowd.

Just looked through the thread topics...

Lp...you got a problem with Obama....


suppose for the sake of arguement that he magically evaporates tonight....what would change? Republicans would still hate democrats and liberals. Just as liberals would hate democrat and republicans. Just as Democrats would hate Republicans and liberals.

Democracy is bad....I get that.

Black guys running the country is bad....I couldn't care less.

Republicans are more pure than angel pee....probably (at least, that is what they tell me).

What does all this incessant griping about people we will never meet actually accomplish?

Where has the complete lack of tolerance gotten us?

(the same place we were a hundred years ago)

Just pointing out the obvious....

now, you guys may resume hating your own countrymen...though it seems...islamic.

In what part of the country do they still have a system of voting that has ballet boxes that can be stuffed?

Nicaragua.

This country I meant.

I find that people who call "democrates" "dems" identify themselves as having taken the us against them attitude in politics.

It seems very immature.

Are you suggesting that our voting system has effective deterrents to election fraud?

I find that to be very common among people who identify as "democrat", and also very common among people who identify as "republican".

It is too common on both sides.

It is exactly the reason I refuse to take sides.

You do know this is a blog posted by someone of no merit/credit/verifiable proven unbiased researchable fame though right?

If you are going to believe something at least verify it in more than one place. I know I do. Especially since these blogger/trolls post untruths as though they are truths.

Wikileaks stuff was pretty verifiable.

Verify it.

But it makes sense that the right would want to believe this because they are rightfully, pun intended, losing their death grip on this country and need to justify to themselves that their hatemongering and fearmongering ways are still working.

If you can keep the masses believing that the only reason the "voting majority" which in the delusional mind of the right is themselves loses in elections is because the elections are stolen you can get them to believe just about anything is a deception even not believing it when their team is actually stealing elections like Bush did in Florida with the help of his brother.

Verify this crap or admit that it is just somebodies wet dreams in writing.

It doesn't matter, Hussein is done and all the money he raises and all the money Romney raises will not change the fact that Ron Paul is the man!

pick a search engine,, ANY Search engine

enter the words VOTER FRAUD, and then pick any presidential electino year

these things are nothing new or avoidable in a country with so many people voting in so many places

its like uncovering that a politician was committing adultery,,,yeah,, humans do that stuff regardless of their station in life,,,
