Not since the election of 1800, the first in which one party displaced another from the presidency, has there been such anxiety about voting.

Even though the 1992 election included the largest percentage increase in voter turnout since 1952, Bill Clinton quickly sought to address the supposed "crisis" of nonparticipation with the National Voter Registration Act -- Motor Voter. It, Fund says, imposed "fraud-friendly" rules on the states, requiring them, for example, to register to vote anyone receiving a driver's license, and to offer mail-in registration with no identification required. bill clinton: the thief that keeps on stealing. arguably the worst thing to ever occupy the white house.

I thought it was interesting that Will used the term that people want voting as convenient as buying an airline ticket. I want voting as secure as getting on a plane. How many times do you have to show a photo ID to get on a plane?
