Hacking Democracy - Bring this to the attention of Barack Obama!!!

Hello friends and supporters of Barack OBAMA, the Presidential candidate for America,

I am a Singapore citizen whom resonates with Mr. Obama and I want to see him elected as the new President of America. From my point of view, he seems to be *the* only candidate that has the ability to LEAD, to MODERATE, to QUESTION issues and to THINK deep about issues that are plaguing the world and America policies.

However, I am concerned that a similar incident of Presidential election could happen again which made previous Presidential candidate, Al Gore did not win the presidential election.

Recently, I saw a documentary produced by HBO entitled "Hacking Democracy" which shows that the electronic election system developed by Diebold, Inc. is probably "hackable" and easily tampered with!!! It only took 10-secs to "hack" the system to change the data of the e-votes from the memory card on the e-voting system!!!

Ladies and gentlemen, do you know how this could change the result of the election? Could someone be responsible for Al Gore's lost in the last presidential election?

Folks, we need to bring this information to the attention of Mr. Obama and his team of campaigners. How do we make sure that they received this info? I would like to be in touch with him before it is too late.



Summary of the Documentary:

Hacking Democracy is a 2006 documentary film by Russell Michaels, Simon Ardizzone, and Robert Carrillo Cohen, shown on HBO. Filmed over a period of over three years, it documents American citizens investigating anomalies and irregularities with 'e-voting' (electronic voting) systems that occurred during America's 2000 and 2004 elections, especially in Volusia County, Florida. The film investigates the flawed integrity of electronic voting machines, particularly those made by Diebold Election Systems, and the film culminates dramatically in the on-camera hacking of the in-use / working Diebold election system in Leon County, Florida.

In 2007 Hacking Democracy was officially nominated for an Emmy award for Outstanding Investigative Journalism.

This cautionary documentary exposes the vulnerability of computers - which count approximately 80% of America's votes in county, state and federal elections - suggesting that if our votes aren't safe, then our democracy isn't safe either.

As I Google, I found more info about "Hacking Democracy":
I also got several videos from YouTube courtesy of a friend, Hazrul whom commented to my Facebook postings. The videos are linked here:

I look forward to your support and replies and I look forward to Mr. Obama winning the election and being the new President of America. If I can be a catalyst of change to warn him of this possible issue, I want to bring it to his attention and I urge anyone of you readers to assist me.

Stay driven!

In early April 2006, I sign-up for the Excellerated Business School for Entrepreneurs (BSE) after a preview session held in Singapore by Executive-Directions. The seminar was held from 15 April to 23 April 2006 in Subang Jaya Hotel in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The BSE in KL was organized by GlobeSL Sdn Bhd. I left Singapore on 14 April via Transtar , the only 1st class coach service which has 16 seats to create a lot of room for your leg. They also provide hot meal during the journey with hot drinks on demand. The seats are equipped with a massage chair, a personal in-flight entertainment system on LCD screen, PC Games and the F&B Attendant will provide anything that you ask for. From newspaper, magazines, blanket, hot/cold drinks, a new set of earphones for the entertainment system... they have it all. They are most courteous and polite at all times. I truly enjoy the Transtar service. For SG$50 from Singapore to KL, it's worth it. I arrived in Subang Jaya Hotel at about 10p

Competition: How Eliminating This Word From Your Vocabulary Will Skyrocket Your Success this essay is extracted from Rok SIVANTE's Facebook Notes . Click here for Rok SIVANTE Facebook Profile page. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Competition. How much of business & economic theory has been based around the concept? What’s happened to this economy of ours, based on the scarcity model of which competition is a core principle? (For anyone who hasn’t picked up a newspaper in the last year - it hasn’t exactly been doing as hot as most would like) What are the consequences of continuing to operate in the world from a belief system dictating there must be a winner and a loser in all outcomes? Are your results really dependent on how others around you conduct their lives? Your success in business has NOTHING to do with the “competition.” What any other company or person is doing has NOTHING to
