Indelible ink on the skin after casting a vote...this could work in the US to fight democrat vote manufacturing.The left would spin this as the same as marking a Jew with a yellow star of David, which would therefore be intimidating and disenfranchising and oppressive blah blah blah.

This is as poignant as the Berlin Wall being pulled down, to me this is as powerful a statement and step forward for the new world order, that does not include Islamic Fundamentalism.
