Should there be a mandatory civics exam before you can vote?

[edward37]

That kind of thing was tried before and it did not go well.

I just figured with the asinine test to buy a gun thread people might be open to it.

for many on the left, it's only open to it if it benefits them.

Thank goodness the people on the right are not that way

didn't say they were not. but in this instance *many on the left* (notice i did not go all inclusive) do want it their way and only their way. as for the right not budging - agreed. they won't have it any other way due to decades of the left not even taking the time to learn about guns, just demonize them and say THEY GOTS TO GO BUT WE AIN'T COMIN FOR THEM!!!!

but hey - i won a bet knowing you'd say this.

I don’t believe this discussion. Just goes to show you that the posters on this thread most likely would fail such tests. Ms. Daniels previously noted, knowingly or not but definitely ironically, that her Uncle Jim used to crow about such a system. Yes, they were called poll taxes and literacy tests, and used to disenfranchise blacks and to enforce Jim Crow laws in our post civil war past. Maybe this is what Trump means when he says “Make America Great Again”. I hope that “once was enough” accurately describes our country’s experience with this policy mistake.

This thread is more of a way of letting off steam than proposing constitutional solutions. Like the threads suggesting a law to confiscate all guns, or a law to ban all abortions.

Why:

He just started a thread about a solution to a non existing problem, Just like the equally dumb gun control thread.

Next up, Government mandated masturbation training.

OH Wait, that's in sex ed already.

Never Mind

If every thread had to be a solution to an actual problem, they could run this site off a used commodore 64. They seem to want people talking about a whole range of subjects, whether they make sense or not.

No, not a solution but definitely a problem. What else would you call our national election of this dangerous buffoon?

Lets start with mandatory civics, history and ethics lessons for our clown president.

Obama had a distinguished degree form Ivy League law school and did crazy shit like...READ A BOOK once in a while.

There were ZERO indictments in his administration, a first in modern history.

AND someone who actually took North Korea's nuclear threat seriously. Maybe you should grab a ***** or two (with their permission of course), you seem mighty frustrated.

[asaratis]

we actually need to get MORE people to vote, like the 44% of Americans, eligible to vote, who do not vote.... imo.

As long as they are registered voters, I'd like to see 100% turn out. Illegal voters, dead people votes, and multiple votes by one person should be thrown out. These things would be precluded by a sensible voter ID system. That's why the Democrats opposed voter ID.

Hillary would have lost the popular vote if the illegals hadn't been counted.

i'm sorry, but that is simply right wing FANTASY... it truly is....
