Nationally, we should require a state issued ID and a US Passport to vote.

Having a passport is a good idea. But, the Department of State would have to offer it for free (it's $140, I think).

And, they are totally unprepared for that kind of volume. When a passport was required for air travel to Mexico and the Caribbean a few years ago, they were overwhelmed. People waited months for their passport, and had to cancel vacations when they didn't arrive.
