Re: earn it somehow

I will agree to disagree since the founding fathers in and of themselves DID choose who got to vote and encompassed that in the foudnation of this country.

We have over time changed that to include minorities and women, but they were firm in their resolution that NO not everyone had the right to vote.

And I agree with that. If you as a citizen can not even answer the basic questions that is required of new people coming INTO this coutnry to be a citizen, then NO, you do not have the right to vote. And that is not tyranny to expect SOMETHING out of the populace.
