U.S. Presidents & The Natural-born-citizen Clause
RE: U.S. Presidents & The Natural-born-citizen Clause
(February 6, 2016 at 10:12 pm)Sterben Wrote: The solution to the problem is a simple one; all that as be done is this, raise the voting age to 25, take the natural born clause and replace it with a 20 year citizenship clause, put a better voter registration in place; if you want to vote prove that you were either naturally born in the country or have retained citizenship for a minimum of 4 years before you eligible to vote; if one was naturally born in the country they will get a card in the mail or an email notifying them there are now eligible to vote and to complete the process follow the guidelines, if one was become a citizen and has fallen into the requirements they can vote after the four year wait time has passed and or if the person was a citizen before the age of 25 they must wait till they are of age to vote and met all the requirements. Citizen's will be automatically denied voting privileges for felony convictions and or declared mentally disabled by the state (Ex. Down-Syndrome, Schizophrenia, Post traumatic stress disorders (acute, chronic, or with delayed onset).

           Something like this would do a lot of good to solve a lot a problems facing us.

You really can't raise the the voting age without listing the age for military conscription proportionally. Conscription hasn't actually happened for a long time, but there still exists an information system for this which men must register for at age 18. I had arbitrarily suggested raising the enlistment age along with the voting age to 25, but on second thought if it went that high then the War Pigs would resort to bringing back the draft because no sensible 25-year-old is going to volunteer, and the pigs always get what they want. May need to settle for making everything 21, and call that progress.

Also there's absolutely no need and no justice in banning PTSD sufferers from the polls. Like mild and well-treated depression, this does not in any way impact the sufferer's abilitity to lead an independent and responsible life, it does not impact his day-to-day decision-making, and it does not distort his ability to assess the character of others. Any law that prohibits a citizen from voting for any reason other than a high likelihood that he would not understand what he is doing is monstrous! So, by the way, is the disenfranchisement of ex-convicts - the fuck, its just absolutely disgusting when you think of how many people are in prison for the dumbest drug-offense reasons! No matter what one has done, there are some who go clean when they get out, and this is why once the debt is paid, they should have the same rights as any of the sociopaths on Wall Street or Washington!
Mr. Hanky loves you!
