I think that universal suffrage is over rated, and that the right to vote should be earned.

Let's have a discussion of what qualifications a potential voter should prove in order to take part in the management of America.

Here are a few initial thoughts to start the discussion.
In order to qualify to vote, one should
(a) prove understanding of history regarding value of free markets, importance of system of laws protecting rights and property and preventing control by association/relationship(pull), long term negative effects of war regardless of the short term benefits, negative effects of centralized power and tendency toward corruption.
(b) prove an understanding of issues and philosophy of success,
(c) have an economic ownership interest in the long term economic success of the business unit called America,
(d) proven understanding of the unlimited value of individual liberty

Disagree? Please elaborate.
