Why are all these democraticks alike, in that they never think beyond square one? It goes all the way to the top. When the story broke, twitter exploded with the ID thing. They all got it, it doesn't even occur to the DUmbasses and their king.

How about LET people vote? Wouldn't that be an effective start? The people who are paid by the hour, and want to, and have to wait in a 10 hour line in Ohio on a work day? No, we need to MAKE them because if there's one thing we know it is what's best for everyone and the only way to get the mindless muddled masses to behave properly is to MAKE them do things the way we know they SHOULD.
