Does the fall/collapse of ACORN ensure there will be no more Democrat presidents elected?

He has a point - grass-roots organizing on the left is pretty much absolutely dead now.  Whether this will effect the outcome of elections seems a valid question..

A temporary pheonomenon linked to the current demotivation of the party.  Saying that the end of ACORN (as if it were the only organization that did voter registration and outreach) would ensure the end of the Democratic Party's presidential prospects is absurd.

     No. Democrats did manage to get elected President prior to ACORN, if nothing else.

Little known historical fact: After his narrow 1824 loss in the House to John Q. Adams, Andrew Jackson vowed to never have an election stolen from him again. Deciding that the only way to fight fire was with more fire, he founded the Democratic Party and its private arm ACORN, determined to steal the next election. Thanks to massive voting fraud (ACORN reportedly "found" over 300,000 votes for Mr. Jackson), he prevailed and went on to win re-election with ACORN's help. In the 1830 midterms, Jackson realized that ACORN could steal congressional races as well, resulting in the first Democratic congressman. ACORN and the Democratic party have been working together ever since, ensuring that the true voice of the people is ignored and Republicans are defeated.

First of all, the Republicans didn't exist back then (in 1830 and before). Second of all, Democrats were the more conservative party between 1828 and 1920, and thus ACORN should have began working for the GOP from 1920 onwards (once the Democrats became too liberal for Andrew Jackson's taste).

Actually, the New York Democratic party has it's roots back to 1792.

In 1791, Madison, Jefferson, Burr, and Clinton secretly founded ACORN in New York. ACORN was able to make all of them President and Vice President.ACORN immediately stole the legislature for Burr so that he could be Senator. ACORN had Burr steal Hamilton's life.  ACORN liked Clinton so much that they stole the Presidential election for another Clinton a couple of centuries later. After 207 years, ACORN got sick of just stealing elections for Democrats in New York, so they founded their own party, the Working Families Party to steal elections on.

After a while, Texas broke free of its ACORN shackles. In 2010, the freedom fighting Texas board of Education learned that Jefferson was involved with founding ACORN, and had him stricken from the history books in retaliation. Jefferson could not be reached for comment.

No more than the SC ruling about corporate donations does (so no).
