So I think you're a moron to want to pass such a law that gives the government the power to subjectively grant the "right" to vote to its citizens.

Does that mean you can't vote? I mean, frankly, I think this goes WELL BEYOND ignorance. It's so much worse, since it comes from people supposedly on this intellectual high-horse, like they don't want the ash and the trash having a say in the way things go, when the fact is that they are the ultimately stupid ones. Perhaps I go home and tear my clothes and gnash my teeth and pull my hair and wail and moan that people like you, for instance, cast votes based on the ideas which your espouse, but I will continue to support your right to be a moron and vote in a similar fashion.

Everyone has a right to vote, and everyone will continue to have a right to vote. This subject is a dead letter.

I grow tired of this. I'm depressed by stupidity and short-sightness, so I think this will be my final thought on the subject for now. This is obviously going nowhere.

Not necessarily, Einstein.
You decide yourself, and no one has to "grade" it.
If you can't answer questions at the 4-year-old level, the voting machine shuts down. Worried?

If you can't tie your shoelaces, I don't want you running my life.

The US government has had the power to define who could and could not vote since the foundation of this country. Nothing has changed in this principle. You want to restrict the government in ways that the founding fathers did not dream of.

You want to create a new country, you fight for it. Don't look at overthrowing our American government to create "your" country.
