DailyKenn.com — Imagine 30-million formerly illegal aliens voting by iPhone. It could happen and, if Apple CEO Tim Cook has his way, voting by iPhone will become a reality. Our future may literally be in the palms of their hands.

Why not? Cook concludes. We do our banking and shopping with hand-held devices. Why not use them to vote?

That, of course, would require every eligible voter to own (or, at least, have access) to an iPhone. Other Internet-connected devices would likely suffice. 

Should Cook's vision become a reality, we can expect the federal government to issue Obama phones to every American as a matter of a fundamental civil right and, while they're at it, why not throw in another $1,400 stimulus payment. Prisoners included. 

"Life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness, and an iPhone," the revised declaration will read.

Republicans prefer voting in person. There is a reason. Republicans seem more willing to stand in long lines at voting sites while Democrats, quite frankly, lean toward the laziness. 

Democrats prefer simple voting processes. There is a reason. There are more Democrats than Republicans. Ease of voting nearly always works in their favor. 

What's more, Democrats seem to think black voters are too dumb to apply for ID credentials but will become tech savvy with iPhones in their hands.  

All this will culminate in subcutaneous chips that will virtually eliminate voter fraud and, simultaneously, replace genuine human rights with credit scores which will be heavily influenced by one's latest Facebook post. That, in turn, will undermine democracy. When that happens, democratic principles will be locked away in a museum somewhere and the Republic will fail.

Apple CEO Tim Cook suggested that concept in a new interview with The New York Times, published just days after Cook joined a growing coalition of business leaders who criticized a restrictive new Georgia voting law.

"I would dream of that, because I think that's where we live," Cook said when Swisher asked if the tech would be the answer to some modern voting issues, like fraud. "We do our banking on phones. We have our health data on phones. We have more information on a phone about us than is in our houses. And so why not?"
