If you can't read or understand who or what you cast your vote
for, your vote should not count.

This is very easy to solve using ordinary CAPTCHA methods.

After each voting option selection, you will be presented with a
CAPTCHA basic sentence in English not exceeding seven words with
a simple yes or no answer.

An incorrect answer will result in the voting choice being
flagged and it will not be counted.

At the end of voting, you will be presented with an optional
paper readout that you can use to contest your vote results.

All contested votes including selection, CAPTCHA sentence &
answer, voter name, party, address and polling location will be
published on the county voter registration website until the
vote is resolved.

A wrong answer is wrong period and cannot be contested.

Great idea, though... Completely illegal and unconstitutional... but I
think it would eliminate many people who base their vote on knowing a
single letter - "R" or "D".

Depends on the definition of literate. In Europe, you are
illiterate if you can't UNDERSTAND what you read. If people understood
anything at all, Fox News would have gone broke a long time ago.

There are millions of illiterate people in America (and most other

There were two items in the newspaper here in New Zealand recently.

One idiot columnist wrote that old people shouldn't be allowed to vote
because they won't be around much longer and so won't have to live with
the consequences.

Another item was a brief poll (I don't know where they got the idea, it
could have been the same idiot columnist) which asked people on the
street if they would be happy to give up the right to vote if they
didn't have to pay taxes ... well, duh! No surprise that pretty much
everyone said yes. Of course, then the government would have no money
to waste on their over-bloated salaries, excessive perks, pet projects,

I'm sure in some parts of the country, Spanish is the dominant

to qualify?

How about when Brown people become the majority of the country... which

majority at the time?
We'd all still better be learning English-- which is the international
language of business and technology-- unless we want to become another
3rd-world also-ran failed state.
That's totally logical: you're saying that the people that already know
English aren't smart enough to prevent us from falling to that level.
You would be one of those people, then.

Idiot.

Darn! That makes you a RACIST - just ask any Democrat. They NEED
millions of illiterate voters to maintain their power.
Nope, I don't care about what race they are, simply that they
understand the language of the country they intend to live in / visit.
That must make me a "linquist" ... oh , wait, that's not right. ;-)
There's the rub - Democrats don't CARE what you care about. Anyone who
criticizes their open border, non-citizens-can-vote routine will
immediately be labled RACIST.

If you do not think non-citizens should be voting, you're a racist.
If you are opposed to TPP, you're a racist.
If you own a gun, you're a racist who only bought it to kill blacks.

Fess up.

LOL. Something you should know is that TPP is a GOP initiative.
McConnell got in bed with Obama and claimed he had an "outer body experience"
Democrats supporting it are in the minority. Just like with NAFTA.

These trade deal are not good for America.
It's not about democrats and republicans any more. It is about
lobbyists and the rest of us. These trade deals exposes which
politicians are pro-American and which ones are the lobbyists whores.

How do illiterat voters know who to vote for? The local city newspaper went I live, which is no more than a propaganda organ for the Dumbocrat party prints a copy of the ballot and checks off the"desired" candidates. A copy of that is brought into the voting booth and, golly, another voter intelligently voted straight Democrat ticket. Add those votes to the ones cast by the dearly departed and the Democrats always seem to fare pretty well. Who needs to pass tests when the Dumbocrats do so well without them?

If you can't read or understand who or what you cast your vote
for, your vote should not count.
This is very easy to solve using ordinary CAPTCHA methods.
After each voting option selection, you will be presented with a
CAPTCHA basic sentence in English not exceeding seven words with
a simple yes or no answer.
An incorrect answer will result in the voting choice being
flagged and it will not be counted.
Republicans would never be voted in again.
The USA would become a dictatorship, with only one party.
Think of the consequences before proposing something like that.

retired homosexual with a crush on generals, and watch a lot of TV.
Good for you.

The US has already become a oligarchical police state. Two parties exist in
name only - witness Speaker Boehner's punishment of any conservative
Republican who opposes the Obama agenda...then there's the Supreme Court's
recent rulings that words do not matter, laws do not matter, and your votes
do not matter.

Yes. You are correct. These issues are beyond the old liberal/conservative
ideals. They are pro-globalist and the rest us are left figuring it out.
It is the New World Order.
They confuse us with liberal/conservative talk while we slowly cede
power to the world govt.

Actually the people did decide when they had their legislators ratify the
Constitution and its amendments. Sometimes the people get confused and make
contradictory decisions. Then it's up to courts to sort it out and decide what
the people really decided.

And the people can decide to amend the law by amending the Constitution. Not
bluddy likely here, but it gives Fox News something to rant over with its
candidates while chasing younger voters to Clinton.

Isn't Obama a person? Hasn't the bastard regularly overruled the Constitution.

And didn't for liberal Supreme Court Justices rule against the separation of
powers when they sided with Obama's illegal amnesty legislation from the
Whitehouse?
