I have an even simpler idea - restrict the vote to those who have served in the military or civil service for a term of time and left under honorable terms. One hitch in the military or 20 years civil service.

Heinlein had the right idea; the vote should only be given to those who have proved that they are willing to put the good of others above their own interests.
