>Sorry Dragan, but there is no reason for foreigners to be allowed to vote.

I wasn't actually complaining, but rather expressing my sympathy to the poor unrepresented citizens of DC - I understand them.

> You must be a U.S. citizen to vote. That should never change.

I know. My country does the same. That's pretty much the world standard.

>Any foreigner who wants the right to vote can either 1)become a U.S. citizen, 2) return to his/her home country,

Or travel home to vote or drive 200 miles to vote at the embassy (which is just as ridiculous). The main reason they don't take mail-in votes from abroad is that probably each party fills their pants when facing such an unknown factor as the opinion of the diaspora, so they never get that law passed :).

>or 3) move to Sweden it allows immigrants to vote and is one of the most generous of all European welfare states. :o)

And it's just too cold for me... I've nicely acclimated to the South (and aircondition :).
