"SO?"

There is a cost to everything worthwhile. and that's why I suggested funding to get these into the hands of people who cannot afford them.

iPhones cost more than that..so do laptops.. Wiis cost more than that

We cannot say that voting matters if we (as a party) are not willing to help people get the ID they need..


We KNOW that the GOP will ALWAYS be making new flaming hoops for our voters to jump through, so we need to cut them off at the pass and make sure that OUR voters are compliant with any nonsense they can cook up.. or

we can continue to wring our hands and complain about how unfair it all is..

It's a choice

Whenever I'm doing a job interview or have to provide proof of citizenship I make sure I have it with me. It's the best form of federal ID in my opinion.

Of course, I'm not that far from the Canadian border and we do go to Vancouver, BC from time to time so it's a necessity now.

I have a passport, and I think I'll take mine with me and show it first instead of my driver's license. I want to see how they react to that

Kansas already has two voter ID requirements for elections, one for US and one for state and local. That is another way to get around voter laws and suppress minor and women's vote. I think Arizona is getting ready to implement the 2 tier system also.

from voter fraud... Voter fraud is basically non-existent. There is no need for anything other than what we have had in place for over two hundred years.

In places where "what we have had in place for over two hundred years" is no longer enough, we need to make sure that ALL citizens (even Democrats) are "allowed" to vote without being hassled at their polling places.
Until WE can take over the reins of government in those places , and can assure fairness, we have to somehow work within the parameters in place.

Lawsuits are great, but SCOTUS is not a friend, and has made it more costly, time-consuming and cumbersome .... and litigating the same things over and over forever, is a useful (to GOP) way for us to waste money every election cycle, and a way to create havoc around every election.

WE know that "voter fraud" is just a GOP invention, but enough GOP-controlled legislatures have bought into it, to change the rules every election.

A US passport is an ID, but it's an ID that undoubtedly proves citizenship, and eligibility to vote, and it can be applied for through the mail. It takes time, but so does going to the DMV .

MOST people can comply with the curveballs thrown every election. This is an option for the ones who have a problem getting other ID...and is something that could be funded by our donor "Sugar Daddies".
