OOntonu a iSannearin aCI • A total lunar eclipse, visible from all of Oregon, will happen tonight when the moon is obscured by the Earth's shadow

Shadow moon On Tuesday, April 15, a total lunar eclipse will be visible across North America, as the moon passes through Earth's shadow.

The moon and the Earth will cooperate. But will the clouds? M ore to thepoint,willthe cloudssteerclearof Northeastern Oregon tonight and early Tuesday when the Earth's shadow obscures the moon, creating a total lunar eclipse. Tonight's eclipse, which starts about 10:55 p.m., is the first that's potentially visible, in its entirety, from Baker City since Dec. 21, 2010. The total eclipse — when the full moon is completely blocked by the Earth's shadow — will last for 78 minutes, from 12:06 a.m. until 1:24 a.m. Although mostly sunny weather is forecast today, the National Weather Service office in Boise posted this on its website this morning: "Models are consistent in increasing clouds across the area late this evening. By start of the lunar eclipse a high cloud shield will be covering the sky for most of SE Oregon and SE Idaho, though the thickness of the high clouds remains a wild card." The moon will be in the southern sky during the eclipse.

D & B employees called 911 rather than clocking in for a day's work when they arrivedatthe business at 6:30 this morning. Twelve Baker City firefighters responded to the report of smoke coming from a west wall of the building at 3515 Pocahontas Road, said Cliff Hall, assistant fire chief. The cause of the fire is undetermined, he said. Baker Rural Fire Department provided mutual aid to knock down the fire, which was confined to one bay of the exterior wall at the entrance to the business, Hall said. The fire was contained in the first 30 minutes and firefighters spent another hour clearing smoke from the building, Hall said. See FirelPage 8A

TURNING BACK THE PAGES 50 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald April 14, 1964 The City Council last night announced its intent to improve about two and a half miles of city streets this summer. City Engineer Vernon Z. Jacobson was instructed to proceed with the preliminary engineering and submit a plan including cost estimates. The engineering is expected to take about 60 days, City Manager Fred C. Dyer told the council. 25 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald April 14, 1989 HALFWAY — Awater quality hearing conducted by the state Department of Environmental Quality (DEQj here Thursday night failed to generate the heat and smoke that was expected. Although protesters tried to show that organic material was being introduced into Pine Creek by the Bonnanza placer mine, a DEQ official kept testimony specific, focusing on an event that brought Bonnanza a spill ticket in October of last year. 10 YEARS AGO from the Baker City Herald April 14, 2004 The Campbell Street traffic light has a home: Cedar Street. The Baker City Council chose that intersection for the light, which city officials have wanted to install for more than a decade. It could be in place as soon as 2006. ONE YEAR AGO from the Baker City Herald April 17, 2013 Carl Stiff has resigned from his seat on the Baker County Board of Commissioners due to health issues. Stiff, 83, a retired physician, saidTuesday that for a while he has been having "some trouble with multiple little strokes." The mostrecent happened justa few daysago. "All of a sudden you have a headache, ..." Stiff said of what have become all-too-familiar events. Stiff refers to them as "those little things in my brain." Though he sometimes walks with a cane, the effects of the strokes have been mostly cognitive. "I have to live on notes," he said. Stiff's current term continues through the end of 2014.

TRAINING Continued from Page 1A The NTC is considered to be the premier annor training site in the world. For a unit like the 3rd Battalion to be selected to go and compete at the remote desert training area is significant, Dean said. "Itis the best training in the world. Noannored brigade combat team has been to the NTC in 12 years. We were the second in the country — and that indudes active duty — togo through it," he said. In the Cold War the NTC served as the backbone and testing ground for U.S.Army units to hone skills to defeat the large-scal e Soviet-era armed forces. At one time the NTC furnished a high-intensity training area 15 times a year where armored units kom across the nation fought largescale, mock battlesacross a wide open, desolate landscape. Visiting units face an"enemy" force — known as the OPFOR in Army parlance — consisting of the U.S.Army's 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment. During the war on terror the NTC's mission switched to offer venues more in line with the climate and challenges U.S.forces faced in places like Iraq and Afghanistan. Now that the war on terror is winding down, the NTC is evolving back to a place where annor units match up against a premier mock enemy force. Dean said the training regime is flexible at the

NTC.

Pottery With A Purpose

aWe can design the scenarios we want," he said.'They've gotallof thisinkastructure already created." Dean said the 3rd Battalion's rotation will probably focus on recent events in terms of the kind of trainingit will endure. "As I see it, we will simulate a deployment to another country," he said. Yet before the NTC rotation arrives, the battalion must still accomplish a widearrayoftasksthis summer —and throughout the upcoming training year — to prepare. Dean said as a commander he is fortunate because he is in charge of a unit that, atits core, is very connected to the culture of Eastern Oregon. That culture provides a certain kind ofleadership that pays dividends, Dean sald. "I've been around a little bit and we grow the best leaders anywhere. I think the rural areas have a tendency to grow people who are more self-reliant and resilient. I think our soldiers train our leaders to think more holistically," he said. That backbone ofresiliency, Dean said, will be critical to achieving success this summer during the unit's annually training cyde and when the battalion goes to the NTC. "I'm excited aboutit becauseIhave alotofconfidence in our soldiers and leaders. In m ostorganizations you11 have one or two guys who can really stand out. I would sayin our organization we have seven or eight out of ten," he said.

Editorial from The (Bend) Bulletin:

Seneca Jones Timber Co. has decided to stand up to environmental bullying, even though it might not serve the company's financial interests. Good for them. Here's the challenge the environmentalists issued: ''We will not respect new property lines, signs and gates.... Do not bid on these sales. If you become the owner of the Elliott, you will have activists up your trees and lawsuits on your desk. We will be at your oKce and in your mills." Sounds to us like a threat to break the law to oppose any company with the temerity to legally buy land in the Elliott State Forest. The Elliott is part of approximately 700,000 acres statewide that the constitution requires be managed to produce money for K-12 education. Because lawsuits have prevented logging, Elliott has cost the state millions in management fees instead of producing income to support schools. As a result, the state decidedtosellpartoftheland.The forestis located in Coos and Douglas counties in the Coast Range. Cascadia Forest Defenders, which issued the challenge, say they are defending the marbled murrelet seabird. The murrelet has been seen on nearby property, butnoton the parcels offered for sale. Kathy Jones, a Seneca Jones co-owner, said her company doesn't need the timber, but doesn't want to be intimidated by environmentalist threats. "It's a very much a personal decision," she said. ''We just decided we were going to do this based on principle and bring it to the public's attention." The environmental resistance to any logging on the Elliott is a sad example of extremism at work. More enlightened approaches could allow logging to create jobs, help the state's economy and make many of our forests healthier. And this particular forest is constitutionally mandated to produce revenue for schools. Bullying threats are the wrong approach, and we're glad to see Seneca refuse to be intimidated. Sadly, there's little reason to hope for a more measured approach from the self-proclaimed defenders of the murrelet.

Your views Not impressed with Fred Warner's efforts

which converts the abandoned grade from Sumpter to Bates (Grant County) I am not a Baker County resident, into a bicycle trail. Over 100 emails I therefore these are simply my obsernever received any correspondence back from Fred, and very seriously felt like he vationsand personal dealings asan outsider looking in and a concerned was openly ignoring my request because member of property owners in the he simply desired the trail more than he wanted to address the concerns of County. I have attempted to work with Fred the people of Austin, I never understood Warner Jr. on a vast array of issues over why Baker County was planning activithe last couple of years, and for the most ties in Grant County. The trail Fred and his stafF were planpart, Ihavefound Fred to be ineffective ningwould have closed roads,created a at best and unwilling to engage at the bike path through my family's property worst. A county commissioner is supposed to and several other largepiecesofproprun the monthly business of the county erty. Mr. Warner was unwilling to deal with Baker County stafFthat openly and watch out for the best interest of local residents. misled the public and kept information I personally have attempted to engage from us and I find that inexcusable. with Fred on the Mainline Trail Project, Fred allowed the Wallowa-Whitman

National Forest stafF to hold meetings in Baker that were public meetings, without notice to the public that they were being held. Those meetings were vital to the public fully understanding the county's role in agreeing to close down our forest and what deals are being cut. And, where was Fred at the Blue Mountains Forest Plan Revision meeting? Nowhere to be seen is where. Again, while not a county resident, I wonder why anyone would vote for a commissioner that simply refuses to listen to the public and deal with issues head on. I'm hopeful Bill Harvey will get the opportunity to start addressing all of these issues. John D. George Bates

GUEST EDITORIALS OFFICIALS IGNORE OREGON'S PUBLIC MEETINGS LAW From The (La Grande) Observer: The news about alleged public meetings violations by members of the WillametteEducation ServiceDistrictBoard probably isn't going to send shockwaves across the state. Yet while the information can be, and often is, regulated to the nonpriority list for many voters, the fact is the news of the incident is more than a bit troubling and hasbroader implications. The facts arefairly straightforward. State ethics personnel, after an investigation, decided thatmembers ofthe Willamette ESD board violated Oregon's public meetings law more than 40 times when the panel searched for a new superintendent. The initial results fiom the probe indicate that nine current or former members of the board were in violation

and could be fined asmuch as $1,000. While seemingly a trivial matter, the truth is a violation of the public meetings law isapretty big dealand wherever it happens should secure the attention of the average voter. The public meetings law doesallow forclosed-door sessions under some circumstances if specific criteri a aremet.Thelaw coverssessions ofelected leadersacrossa swath ofthe Oregon political spectrum and every few years, it seems, someone, somewhere decides the law just doesn't apply to them. Often, at least in small, rural areas ofthestate,them istakes regarding the public meetings law can be easily

attributed to ignorance or simply haste. Often elected leaders must make quick decisions within a short time frame. Still, the public meetings law — which calls for open sessions where the public can, if it chooses, attend — isn't a mandate to ignore. The law exists for a very goodreason:It'scalled Democracy. Elected leaders in a democracy — such as the one we currently live in — must complete the public's business in a forum where members of the body politic can attend. The fact that often most meetings thatinvolve elected leadersorboardsor commissions are not well attended by the public is beside the point. The point isthatthose elected orappointed to office cannot be allowed to do the public's business in secret. Secrecy breedsa farm oreinsidious threatto the Republic than is commonly known, or for thatmatter,accepted. The public meetings law in Oregon calls for open sessions when the public businessisbeing conducted.Itdoesnot stipulate that elected leaders can do some of the public's business in the open some of the time. It calls for it all of the time. Ifelected leadersareconfusedregarding what the public meetings law does and does not restrict, they should find out. Democracy is far too important to be left in the shadows of confusion. PRESIDENTS CELEBRATE A CIVIL RIGHTS MILESTONE From The Pittsburgh Post Gazette: Fifty years ago, America took a major

stride toward becoming a nation that takes its creeds on equality seriously. When President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act, it was arguably the most important piece oflegislation enacted in a century. Last week, Barack Obama, the nation's first African-American president, marked the law's first half-century with George W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter at the LBJ Presidential Library Civil Rights Summit. Obama's presidency would not have beenpossiblewithout passage of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discriminationon the basisofrace, color, religion, sex or national origin. Discrimination was, unfortunately, a largepart ofthefabricofAmerican life, law and tradition. What is often forgotten in commemorating civil rights milestones is that powerfulinterestslined up to oppose Johnson's push for equality every step of the way. But thanks to LBJ's skill as a negotiator and his willingness to use the power of his office to persuade reluctant Southern Democrats to do the right thing, a deal was hammered out and America began to take its first fitful steps in a turbulent decade toward becoming an equal opportunity society. Still, 50 years later, the nation has yet to fulfill the promise of equal rights for all. Discrimination still hounds same-sex couples, immigrants and others. It would be wrong to reflect on how far we have come without realizing how far we have yet to go.

Blazers nip Warriors in OT thriller PORTLAND iAPl — LaMarcus Aldridge said an overtime thrilleroverGolden Statewas good preparation forthe looming postseason.

Baker opened Greater Oregon League baseball play Saturday by sweeping a doubleheader at Ontario 10-4 and 8-3. Caleb Custer and Taylor Gulick each threw a complete-game win in their half of the twinbill. "Caleb threw real well. He had a dominating performance," said Baker coach Tim Smith. "And, Taylor also had a great outing. He threw well, keeping the ball down in the zone." Baker managed 22 hits, including nine doubles, and committedjustthree errors. "I think that was our best two-game outing overall baseball-wise this season," Smith said. Austin Folkman led Baker's offense in the first game with two hits, including a double, and three RBIs. Gulick, Stephen Schott and Keaton Bachman each added two hits. Custer added a pair of RBIs. In Game 2, Custer led the way with three hits, including a double, and two RBIs. Chace Dixon also had two runs batted in.

son, hugged his wife and took off down the ropes along the 18th green, high-fiving the patrons at Augusta National. This was the kind of Bubba-like celebration he would've relished two years ago, but it wasn't possible that Sunday. Watson and his wife had just adopted their little boy, so the rest of the family stayed at home. The Masters was decided not in front of the clubhouse, but down in the hollow at No. 10, where Watson won a nerve-wracking playoffby whacking a trick shot off the pine straw and around a tree. It ended suddenly, dramatically, without the proper time to commemorate the occasion. Not a problem this time. Watson seized the lead fiom Jordan Spieth with a dramatic two-hole swing before the turn. The last real uneasy moment came at the 13th, where the left-hander launched a slicing tee shot around the trees — nicking a limb or two along the way — to set up an easy two-putt birdie that essentially clinched his victory.

it out and really seeing the benefits," Cole said. 'Typically our participation numbers drop as the season goes on, but not so much this year. These kids are a lot of fun and are working hard. The support for one another has been awesome as well. Those kids that did plateau, as a whole were the first to support their teammates who were getting personal bests, and this not only helps the atmosphere of the team, but it just helps everyone get better." This week Baker hosts the Baker Relay meet Friday at 2 p.m. oWe would love to see people come out and support the kids," Cole said.'We are also looking for volunteers. If any one would like to volunteer, I can teach them anything they need to know." Ifyou're interested contact Suzy Cole at scole@baker. k12.or.us or 541-524-2641.

Additions to the display are considered annually by school administrators and BHS coaches. The next meeting is scheduled April 29 to consideradditions from 2012 and 2013. Decisions on 2014 possibilities tentatively are setfor nextfall. The athletes come from all sports played at BHS over the years. The oldest selection is retired Baker physician Menzie McKim in 1906.

DORY'S DIARY DQRQTHYSWART FLESHMAN

Beau abounds,

if you look around There is so much beauty in life in spite of its pain that it is astonishing. It's trulyimpossible to take it all in. I always wanted to be a painter, one who could put to canvas what my eye could see. Unfortunately the ability didn't come naturally, for there are other attributes required than just the desire. The awareness came when I found that I didn't want to prepare myself in study, preparation, application and clean up. The thought of mixing paints, cleaning brushes, and learning from the masters didn't appeal to me. So now I enjoy beauty where I find it and fry to remember the moment. At this moment, I am sitting where I can look up at the top of a cupboard where I put artificial flowers at the end of the fall season just as a way of finding atemporary storage space. Temporary, but they are still there, as outside spring actually surrounds us in flowering frees and stems ofblooms. Some of my artificial look-alike flowers are in pitchers, others just crammed in where space was available atop the cupboard. I like the color of them there. Funny how lovely they look to me on this gray day. They don't grow or need cared for. They don't put down roots in the flower garden but give one the sense of color and their own loveliness to share. There are four pitchers of white porcelain brought over from a visit to Switzerland, duplicates in one case inherited from my mother after her death ishe would have been 110 on April 1l but from a time that she and myAunt Mildred joined George and me on a visit to their home country in 1975. These are simple jugs that make you think ofbarns, cows, milk, and the rural life.

Native plants, including three species of penstemon, Wyeth buckwheat, Basin big sage, native columbine, and blue wildrye, grow in a rock-raised bed in Susan Geer's yard in La Grande.

By Kelly Black ForThe Observerand the Baker City Herald

Native plants might be the new rock stars ofhome landscaping. They use less water and synthetic chemicals while providing morehabitatandfood for bees and birds — and they have a propensityforostentatious displays of color. Ornamentals are bred for different reasons than providing food and habitat. "A lot of ornamentals do not even produce seeds," said Susan Geer of La Grande, who works as a botanistand ecologistforthe Forest Service. Nativeplants produce seeds and nectar. Many have a structure that complement native bees and birds. Geer grew up in Illinois. "There were not any native plants around me where I grew up," said Geer."It was cornfields." In college she began studying natural plant communities. When Geer moved to Oregon she immediately recognized that the abundance of native plants Oregon has is special. She joined the Native Plant Society of Oregon. She also filled her yard in La Grande with native flowers and shrubs. "I am pleasantly surprised by

Laurie Allen waters plants that will be sold at the native plant sale held in Cove atThe Plantworks on April 19 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. how many species of native bees I see in my yard," said Geer. She worked at the USDA bee lab at Utah State studying pollination ecology. There are

about56,000 speciesofbees in the world. She beli eves that native bees and native plants in our region have evolved to co-exist.

Some native flowers are so tiny that only very small native bees can fit inside to collect nectar and spread pollen. Some native bees have long tongues that can reach deep into the narrow tubes of native flowers. When people think about bees, they often think ofhoneybees, which actually originate from Italy. "Honey bees and bumble bees are social bees so they live in a hive or colony," said Geer. Some native bees are not social at all — a solitary bee may nest in a dried up stick that is hollow, a crack in the rocks, or a hole in the ground or a tree. Many native bees are two to three times more efficient at pollinating than honeybees because, while honeybee collect pollen on their legs, some native bees collect pollen on their entire abdomen. Jennifer Ferriel works as an ecologist for the ForestService. Ferrier, who recently moved to La Grande, grew native plants at her home in Baker City for the past eight years. "They are nice because they do not take a lot of water. In general, once they get started, they do okay with normal rain cycles," said Ferriel. See NativelPage 2B

imne: ounan asan wic By Karen Kain I love this time of year! The days are longer and the sun is shining. Everyone is busy getting their gardens started. Spending more time outside definitely means that lunchtime meals are a little rushed. I enjoy cooking low-cost flavorful meals. Sweet onions are in the markets. Here are a few of my favorite recipes. According to historians, the grilled cheese sandwich has been around since the 1920s. It was typicallyreferred to asan inexpensive bread and cheese sandwich. During the Depression, cheese was readily available and the meal was originallymade open-faced. It wasn't until the 1960s that the top became common. I am offering you another twist.

'They know how to grow in the valley," said Allen. Geer encourages people to look around their yard for microclimates. She plants native sword ferns on the north side ofher house. 'That is a plant you would normally find in the moist, darkforest, "said Geer.

Beardtongue comes in various shades including blue, purple, pink, red, yellow and white. Ferrier likes them because they attract pollinators like butterflies and hummingbirds. Northeast Oregon also has alargevariety ofnative buckwheats. 'Their colors can be really brilliant," said Geer.'They would be good for a rock garden or gravel garden." For those who are ready to replace their thirsty lawn with native plants, Geer has several suggestions. The first is, do not bother digging up the lawn. Geer has developed an easysystem toreplace sections oflawn with native plants. First, she digs holes in the lawn for native plants and shrubs. Then she covers the lawn with cardboard and anchors the edges. Next she plantsthe native species she is introducing into the landscape. Finally she covers the cardboard with either mulch or gravel. Since plants cannot live without light, the grass will die and, along with the cardboard,decompose intothe new native landscape. Another approach is to water the section oflawn or

Where to buy native plants • Local native plant sale on April 19: The William Cusick chapter of the Native Plant Society of Oregon is hosting a one-day sale for native plants on April 19 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. atThe Plantworks in Cove, 69465 Lantz Lane. Proceeds will benefit the Oregon Flora Project. Several regional nurseries specialize in native plant retail sales: • Plants of the Wild in Tekoa, Washington will ship UPS: www.plantsofthewild.com or 509-284-2848 • Draggin'Wing Farm in Boise carries dry land native species: waterthriftyplants.com or 208-345-4199

weeds that istobereplaced with native plants. Then coverthe areawith clear plastic and sealthe edges. Let the area cook in the sun for about two weeks, depending on temperature. This will kill plants and seeds in the groundpreparingthe soilfor native species. Growing native plants from seed is not that difficult, according to Geer, but many require stratification — the winter processoffreezing and thawing. Geer suggests planting seeds in the fall. Wildflower mixes, although popular, often contain speciesthat arenotnative and may even have species that have the potential to become invasive weeds. Members of the local William Cusick chapter of the Native Plant Society of Oregon, learn to identify and collect native plant seeds. The society encourages peopleto gather seed rather than take plants from the wild.

The chapter will be selling native plants grown from seedsthatmembers collected in Baker and Union Counties. The one-day sale will be at the The Plantworks in Cove on April 19 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.(see details above). "They are all grown from seed gathered in the wild," said Allen, who is growing plantsforthesale. Allenhas a number ofnativeplants ready for planting including: Idaho fescue, snow buckwheat, Basin wild rye, blanket flower, big sagebrush, mule ears, penstemons, mountain goldenbanner, Lewis flax and Hooker's evening primrose. There will also be native shrubs, grown by The Plantworks, at the sale. For information about growing native plants or the Native Plant Society of Oregon, contact Susan Geer at 541-963-0477 or Emily Montgomery Jones at 541-963-3339, or look at the website: www.npsoregon.org

on't eac ic en: ecoo 'sutimatec a en e heat 25 degrees (if it's browning too fast or smoking, reduce the heat by 25 degrees). After 30 minutes, turn the chicken breast-down. Roast 10 to 20 minutes longer, depending on size. Turn breast-up and roast 5 to 10 minutes, or until the thickest part of the thigh is 155 degrees. REMOVE from oven and let stand 5 to 10 minutes. Carefully pour off the clear fat from the pan, leaving the drippings. Add about 1 tablespoon water to the hot pan and swirl it. Add any juices from the chicken, bring to a boil, then serve with the chicken.

By Kathleen Purvis The Charlotte Observer

Julia Child used to say that you can judge the quality of a restaurant by its roast chicken. Her point: It's so simple, with just a few ingredients. But there are endless ways to do it. How well you can execute that one dish shows a lot about what kind of cook you are. A fast, minimalist cook just wants to throw a chickenin apan and shove it in an oven. A fusser needs to baste, brush and turn. An artist slidesherbs under the skin just so. A control nut ties that chicken up tight. To see what the masters can teach us about something so simple, we took three famous roast chicken recipes: chef Thomas Keller's brined, roasted chicken, San Francisco chef Judy Rodgers' salt-rubbed chicken from "The Zuni Cafe Cookbook" and Julia Child's butterbrushed version from "The Way to Cook." We followed their recipes with just one change in the choice of our chickens. While Child called for a larger chicken, sometimes called a roaster, both Kellerand Rodgerssuggested smaller, 2'/2-pound chickens. In her classic 2002 book, Rodgers, who died in December, wrote that smaller chickens have more skin per ounce of meat, so they roast quickly and evenly while staying succulent. You used to see that size frequently in stores, labeled "broiler-fryers." But these days, most of those are cut into parts. Whole chickens, labeled fryers, usually are larger, around 4'/2 to 5 pounds. That's what we went with. While you can get smaller chickens from local farms, we wanted to conduct our test with supermarket chickens that anyone could find. The result of our test? All three methods resulted in good chickens. Keller's sweet brine resulted in a chicken with very dark skin, Child's butter-basted chicken had delicious skin but slightly less flavorful meat, while Rodgers' salt-rubbed chicken took the most time but had the moistest meat. The main difference was in time, which is a good way to make your choice: If you have a couple of days, go with the Zuni Cafe chicken. If you have a day, try Keller's version. And if you're in a hurry and just need to get on with it, try Child's recipe. The main thing to remember is this thought, from Nigella Lawson: e You could probably get through life without knowing how to roast a chicken, but the question is, would you want to?"

The Associated Press

NEW YORK — In an unsparing critique of Republicans, President Barack Obama on Friday accused the GOP of using voting restrict ions to keep votersfrom the polls and of jeopardizing 50 yearsofexpanded ballot box access for millions of black Americans and other minorities. "The stark, simple truth is this: The right to vote is threatened today in a way that it has not been since the Voting Rights Act became law nearly five decades ago," Obama said in a fiery speech at civil rights activist and television talk host Al Sharpton's National Action Network conference. Obama waded into the acriddebateovervoting access in an election year where control of the Senate, now in the hands of Democrats, is at stake, as is Obama's already limited ability to push his agenda through Congress. Republicans say the voting measures guard against voter fraud, but Democrats say they erode the landmark 1965 law that helped pave Obama's path in politics. "Across the country, Republicans have led efforts to pass laws making it harder, noteasier,forpeopleto vote," he said, relating anecdotesof voters turned away because they didn't have the right identification or because they needed a passport or birth certificate to register. "About 60 percent of Americans don't have a passport," he said."Just because you can't have the money to

laws are being challenged by the Obama administration, said the Supreme Court has ruled that voter identification laws are constitutional. "Protecting the integrity of thevotingprocessissomething that benefits everyone, partisanpoliticsdo not,"the spokeswoman, Megan Mitchell, said. For Democrats this year, no political issue stands out more prominently than their ability to motivate voters to turn out at the polls in November. But traditionally weak midterm turnout by Democrats coupled with efforts in some states to limit early voting and to enact voter identification requirements have prompted the president and his party to raisealarms and step up theirget-out-the-vote efforts. "I want to be clear: I am not against reasonable attemptstosecure the ballot. We understand that. There has to berulesin place," Obama said."But I am against requiring an ID that millions of Americans don't have."

Obama's speech to a crowd of about 1,600 in a New York hotel ballroom came a day after he marked the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act at the LBJ Library in Austin, Texas, where he praised President Lyndon Johnson's understanding of presidential power and its use to create new opportunities for millions of Americans. The president pinned efforts to curb accessto the ballot box directly on the GOP, declaringthat theeffort"has not been led by both parties. It's been led by the Republican Party." Mocking the Republicans, he said,'What kind of political platform is that? W hy would you make that a part of your agenda, preventing people from voting?" Republicans have argued that they voter laws seek to safeguardthe voting process and are not an attempt to limit Democratic turnout. A spokeswoman for Republican Sen.
