“In 2012, 93 million Americans who could have voted failed to do so. That’s more votes than either presidential candidate received.”

Wow. Lots of Republicans stayed home, for sure.

Unfortunately they did, and those are to blame for the reelection of that arrogant, lazy, lying pos occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. I will never forgive them, nor those idiots who voted to reelect him

IF the blue blood gop elite RINOS put up another RINO like ROMNEY they will make it that much easier for more Conservatives to sit home AGAIN!

I held my nose and vote for RINO McNasty and RINO Romney, NO MORE!

Give me Alan West and Ted Cruz types. NO PRO AMNESTY, NO ANTI- 2nd Amendment, lets get along candidates need apply.

And the national gop orgs can kiss my rear end, I only donate to the candidate of my choice direct. They use my $ to prop up RINOS like lamar alexander, thad chochran who are over 74 and need to retire. alexander promised 2 terms and out, now he is running for a 3rd. Did to Joe Carr what was done to McDaniel’s.

Americans Have a Civic Duty To Vote Intelligently

There is one catch so, one of the precursors for voting intelligently is missing, as at least halve the voter are missing the intelligence to do so.

I definitely sense that Dr Carson is wrong.

The title should be “All Americans should not have the right to vote.”

We disqualify children, we disqualify convicts, and we disqualify those not yet citizens.

Just one idea on the subject: Excepting actual retirement social security and those drawing paychecks or retirement from jobs in the government, we should not give a vote to those whose checks from the government exceed their income taxes paid. (At a local level, those who do not pay property tax, for example, shouldn’t be eligible to vote on those items for which property tax pays. And claiming ‘property tax’ is included in rent is not a valid argument.)
