Should the voting requirements be raised?

[Julien]

This sounds like an attempt to supress the vote of the poor uneducated.

The poor uneducated shouldn't be voting. They don't contribute anything to government, and will 90% of the time just vote for welfare.

That's sick

I agree. It's sick that these people are actually able to vote.

Not everyone could be born rich like you.

[Julien]

I wasn't born rich. And yes, everyone can know who George Washington is.

You aren't rich? Then you wouldn't be able to vote if you were 18.


What does George Washington have to do with anything

[Julien]

Uh, yes, I would.

Did you read this topic? We're talking about making voters take a test to make sure they know basic facts, such as who the first president is.

Alcon said that would be surpressing the poor, uneducated vote, to which I responded, they have no business voting. If someone can't name George Washington, I don't trust him with my liberty.

You said the poor shouldn't vote. I don't care what Alcon said.

And if the poor and uneducated couldn't vote then Bush would have lost in a landslide. The poor uneducated people of the south are his biggest supporters.

[Julien]

For all I know you could be making those figures up. It's a well known fact that Bush is strongly supported by poor whites in the south.
