Agree totally. I have always believed that there should be, at the very least, a simple test to receive a voting license. We have to take a test to drive a car, so why not to vote? The safety factor is the same. Idiots have voted in the likes of Obama, who is actually driving this country off a cliff.
The problem with that sort of thinking is that the OTHER side has said exactly the same thing about GUN OWNERSHIP. Driving a car isn't a Constitutionally Protected RIGHT. Owning a gun and voting are. Stop espousing that or they'll come after us and use your logic to justify tyranny.
You obviously are much too young to have been around in the 60s when some Southern states required a literary test to vote. And, surprise, surprise, the Supreme Court struck it down as unconstitutional.
Or how about not letting people vote if they are firmly attached to the government teat? Too bad there wouldn’t be a way to include those getting big business welafare. Nobody who is feeding off the taxpayers should be allowed to vote themselves even more money from the trough.
Something as simple as name all nine supreme court justices, your U.S. representative, and two Senators, would be enough that the D's would never draw more than 20% of the vote.
And that's considering the fact that D's would be out front of every polling place handing out the answers.
The only problem with that would be the people who design the tests would make sure you and I never get to vote...
Votes should be proportioned according to how much tax an individual pays. Currently, folks who pay no tax are being allowed to determine how tax money is spent. We have allowed the monkeys to run the zoo.
Would be unconstitutional, but really.. I remember when Howard Stern had someone going around interviewing people in NYC, and he’d give positions that Mccain had.. They’d support it when they thought hussein said it, no matter what the issue.
People don’t know the issues or even care for the most part. They wanted a D or a black guy and could care less about the issues.
