Voting used to be reserved for white adult male land owners. Legally.

An excellent idea, by the way, and one that desperately needs to be revisited.

Yeah, well, I'm not ready to go quite that far yet, but I would certainly favor a basic civics test to qualify for a "voting license".

We test and license drivers to reduce the risk of car wrecks, but we open wide the gates to those who wreck our country.
