    I'm firmly in favor of voters having to pass a US citizenship test (comparable to that required to become a naturalized citizen) prior to being able to vote. In olden times (prior to the 1970s), this used to be called "passing 5th grade civics"...

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    Except that it will be leftists who write the test so the correct answer to the question "Who does the Second Amendment guarantee the right to keep and bare arms?" will be "The National Guard" and other leftist BS.
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    Another strong alternative to land owner, would be business owner.

    Repeal the 19th and voter balance will favor logic over emotion

    I was thinking more along the lines of all of those other alternatives, including land owner. Kind of a checks and balances, but then again, you'd get a similar result with what we have now.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
