All I'm going to say is this. In my opinion, regardless of political affiliation, to hold a public office, a person should have to pass a test on the U.S. Constitution which they are sworn to uphold upon takiing that office. Second, citizens should only have the right to vote after passing a test on the U.S. Constitution and work and pay taxes or have retired after paying taxes their whole life. No one should be allowed to make decisions on who represents us and spends our hard earned taxes unless they are contributing themselves.
I now relinquish my soap box

I might add that ANYONE who has served in the U.S. military should automatically qualify to vote. They have earned that right!!!
Now I relinquish my soap box.

If the majority of the citizens of the UNITED STATES vote for a man to become president and a group of people cast a vote becaue of a long ago good plan that is still implemented in this day and age when population concerns are no longer an issue does that not mean my vote does not count ?

more than some others and less than some others. should be clear now, right? haha Al Gore won the popular vote by majority but we had a different a-hole that slept in the white house... bottom line is, we are losing control, faster than ever!
