Wow what a novel idea only people who can read english can vote. That probably means that only Americans can vote! Hope it passes.

What are you, some sort of racist?

But in all seriousness, English should be the only language government forms are printed in. If you want to know what's going on in your government, learn English. It seems pretty simple to me.

You must be proficient in English to become a Citizen.
Only Citizens can vote...
I don't see any issue![Beer]

I agree. ALL .gov forms should be in English.

Mike is my US Representative and I rarely disagree with him. This is certainly NOT one of those rare times.

I just placed a call to his office to offer my support of his legislation.

(720) 283-9772 in Lone Tree or (202) 225-7882 in DC.

When I lived in Europe I had to learn the language and writings since it was not like anything was printed in English.

When I lived in Europe everything was written in English and everyone spoke English.

Of course I did live in England at the time:)

must be a citizen and at least a High school diploma or GED.

we have public education, agree with it or not and if you can't pass it while it is paid for by tax paying citizens, you in no way deserve to vote.

I still prefer that land owners only get to visit. then all the downtown big city renters get no say. sorry to all of you in that situation but the rest of us will definitely make a huge change for you to enjoy.

I used to think this way, but saw the fault in that opinion. If you create a voting class, they'll just vote to make their class smaller and smaller. If you want a caste system, move to India.

maybe so, but the majority of property owners are right leaning.
As far as education, I don't have any info on what each side would carry but I would guess it is a close 50/50 on educated conservatives/liberals.

I'll take my chances on my idea vs. what we have now allowing illegals, hoodlums getting bussed to voting booths and people who can't get the basics of life that are handed to them completed.

Those people you are worried about don't vote though.
