  Here are some of the Supreme Court cases I worked on.
  
  I was "on the brief" for the prevailing party in the landmark federalism case of United States v. Morrison, 529 U.S. 598, 600 (2000).
  
  I filed an amicus brief on behalf of economists and scholars in support of the prevailing party in Watters v. Wachovia Bank, 127 S.Ct. 1559 (2007).
  
  I filed an amicus brief on behalf of the prevailing party in Parents Involved in Community Schools v. Seattle School District No. 1, 127 S.Ct. 2738 (2007).
  
  I also handle cases at the trial and appellate level, such as Coalition for Economic Equity v. Wilson, 122 F.3d 692 (9th Cir. 1997), a case that upheld against a constitutional challenge the ballot initiative sponsored by my clients.

  For example, I was one of the attorneys who helped write the briefs for the prevailing party in Reno v. Bossier Parish School Board, a case arising under Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act. See Reno v. Bossier Parish School Board, 528 U.S. 320 (2000); Reno v. Bossier Parish School Board, 520 U.S. 471 (1997).

  I wonder why you are not raising the same questions to Liberty University who is encouraging out of state students to register there so they can vote in Virgina, a "swing" state. Let's see, wonder if the majority of students who attend Liberty will vote for a Democrat? You partisan people are all alike, hypocrites.

  First of all, we should petition an appropriate judge to issue a cease and desist order to the ACLU barring them from all political activity until after the election. Second, we should prosecute them to the max. Third, publicize this! I realize that may be impossible, given the Obama-foot-licking nature of our media. Fourth, we should take action to prevent these students from voting--for starters, widely publicize the penalties for voter fraud, and the requirements for legal registration. Then, we should begin to prosecute students who have registered fraudulently. I would be willing to give them a suspended sentence--but do give them something so they will learn and abide by the requirements of legal voting in the future!

  Are we just looking for an excuse to throw away millions of democratic votes or are there actually some people who have registered as Republicans in that mess?

  Most recently, election officials in Lake County, Indiana, found more than 2,100 fraudulent voter registration applications that were filed at the deadline by ACORN. According to a CNN report, at least one of ACORN’s applications in Lake County attempted to register a dead man.

  Such states as Indiana and Connecticut enacted laws giving escaped slaves the right to jury trials on appeal. Vermont and New York assured fugitives the right of jury trial and provided them with attorneys. Other states forbade state authorities to capture and return fugitives. After the Compromise of, most Northern states enacted further guarantees of jury trials and punishment for illegal seizure.

  RE: If out-of-state students can register in Virginia, despite not really living in the state, they may be able to parlay that into claiming lower in-state tuition rates — thus costing Virginia colleges and state taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars.
  
  Oh my God!!! The end of the world!!!!
