The USA should require Voter ID’s in every State with a photo ID to vote, and voting should be in person, all on paper ballots with opposite parties observing and ability to STOP the process anytime deemed necessary; no electronic or mail of any type except for active military over seas and verified. There should be one election day and everyone is allowed to take time off from work to go VOTE. This is the only way to stop sorry ass Rats from cheating like hell. Wake up America.

Not good idea...

Democrats would use their control to force people to prove they're WOKE... I mean - they can define 'background' their own way... Proving WHO you are and that you're a citizen is plenty...

To: 2aProtectsTheRest
Because society loans only certain rights to government, and the rest are retained, the national government itself has no claim whatsoever to new and independent rights or powers. The Ninth Amendment is not whimsical. Like the rest of the Bill of Rights its protections have a substantive end; they identify “the rights that the Constitution’s system of enumerated powers, indirect voting and separation of powers is designed to protect.” The inclusion of the Ninth Amendment was, in part, an attempt to be certain that rights protected by state law were not supplanted by federal law simply because they were not enumerated. There is no genuine theoretical obstacle to their judicial enforcement by Scotus.

In a federal republic contradicting laws among the states should be common. So what if California and Massachusetts promote homosexual marriage while other states prohibit the practice?

As opposed to fanciful and often incoherent Scotus’ opinions, state laws and constitutions are typically grounded in reality. To make its decisions, the judiciary needs judicial standards. Society does not. The establishment of judicial standards or metrics from which to make their decisions must start with rights declared by society, not by Scotus itself.

The Ninth Amendment is consistent with American history and traditions. The sovereign people who established government, not subservient courts, have the power to declare rights they did not previously enumerate in the Constitution.

Progressing the Ninth Amendment Part II of III.
