Many of these people own property but won't show up on the income tax rolls. The other person who posted to me said that some people who pay taxes don't own property. How about a civics/economics test first before a vote can be cast?

Now your talking, I think there should be a standard.

And pray tell, who is going to write the standards for such a test?

I can see it now:

Do you support global warming?

Do you own a gun?

What kind of a gun? A hunting gun or a personal weapon?

Do you love animals?

Do you eat meat?

No thank you. Stick with property owner; real property...4 wheelers not acceptable as property.

True many very wealthy rent. Persons who live in NYC or similar circumstances, but eliminating them might not be a bad idea seeing as how they vote.

Now your talking, I think there should be a standard. Yup. We could also add that candidates show a birth certificate to prove Constitutional eligibility to become POTUS
