Is it time to eliminate uninformed and uneducated voters?

Question

Should we impose a petition to our district's congress to have a minimal IQ to vote? Should there be some sort of test that you take before you cast your ballot to prove you are an informed voter? This recent election has had me losing sleep. I cannot believe all the ignorant and false information being spued by the media as well the comments made at the Democratic Convention. Is race, celebrity endorsement, or s*x a reason to choose a president?

Answer 1

but that eliminates the entire democrat party

Answer 2

No, stupid people have the same rights.

Um, I don't know whether it's wise for someone with 'German' in their name to be talking about 'eliminating' people. Someone might get the wrong idea, sexxy or not.

Answer 3

I know what you're feeling, but that a very slippery slope you're talking about going down.  For instance: What would be the definition of an "informed" voter, one who agrees with the administration at the time  of registration?

The reality is: The USA's system of politics is probably one of the fairest and humane ever created...and it's still pretty far from perfect.

Answer 4

Shall someone educate you on the word 'democracy'?

Answer 5

Then who would be left to vote for Obama?

Answer 6

I don't know what the h**l a district congress is but I am sure the Constitution trumps them and any litmus test  

Answer 7

No

No

No

No

Tell them,Show them,Teach Them

Answer 8

i dont think that would be fair to the democrats
