>I'm not sure about intelligience requirements for voting. That is quite a constitutional problem.

I haven't completely thought these through - but here are some more that this election and the general stupidity of the nation has me considering ...

in order to register to vote you must ...

1 - be able to pass a very simple civics test -

2 - not be receiving "redistribution of income" money from the government. No one should be allowed to vote money away from someone else.

3 - have paid taxes in last 4 years (exclude retirees who have paid throughout lifetime) - this should take care of most of #2

4 - be at least 26 years old - sorry the age of social maturity and responsibility has risen the last 40 years

5 - be under 65 and male ... (VBG)

Well at least I'm seriously thinking about the first 4 ... well sort of seriously ... :-)
