And there are still people in the US today that believe only a small
proportion of the population should vote. My father believed that only
property owners should vote. I am not sure that he was wrong. There is
something about only allowing those who have a real stake in a country's
future to be allowed to control it, that appeals to some of us. Our

country
is today controlled by millions of rif-raf who only came here for a hand
out, and don't really give a Damn whether we survive or die.......They

don't
bother to learn the language, and will vote for whoever gives them the

most
money in their welfare checks......

The only difference between them and the politicians they vote
for is a suit.


Hey! - I'll buy that.....I think we should do away with voting altogether. I
think we should be run by a congress picked by random selection from all the
eligible citizens. replaced every 6 years or so by a new group....Never to
be allowed to serve again. - Not serving long enough to learn how to
steal......But the, "eligible citizens" should have lived here for at least
ten years, and be able to speak the language.......
