why don't you document this epidemic of non-citizens voting since it is the core premise of your argument, apparently.
and if the documents required to obtain the ID are sufficient for you, why require the extra step of making people pay money to the government in order to be able to vote? you do know that is against the 24th amendment, yes?
The core premise of my argument revolves around legitimacy and verification. Period.
Be it a photo I.D. confirming citizenship, passport, or, as Uncle Buck mentioned in a previous post, birth certificate, I wholeheartedly support the requirement to verify identity and citizenship prior to casting a ballot in national elections.
.....that pretty much sums up my feelings on the issue.
