Why is it a good thing for very stupid and uninformed people to vote?

I know why the Democrats want this and always talk about “expanding democracy”. But can any somewhat normal center-left type Democrats justify why we need people that don’t meet the following qualifications to be voting?

1) Can’t speak English

2) Can’t name the three branches of government

3) Can’t name at least 3 Constitutional amendments

4) Can’t name the current president and vice president

5) Can’t name the document that is the supreme law of the land

6) Can’t figure out how to get an ID

Just some basic requirements. Why would we need people that are such low IQ and unaware of how our government is supposed to operate participating in the democratic process?

So minorities have the maximum amount of government jobs we can squeeze out of the public and the communist get to defraud everyone because of the ignorance of their voting base. Don’t believe me look at all minority run cities in the country what do they have in common?

Truth hurts. We are hurting ourselves. Sheriffs that are women and police chiefs that aren’t remotely qualified for their positions. Etc etc etc

Sorry not sorry anymore.

The uninformed are typically unintelligent in other areas and are typically low income. They will always vote for the party that gives away free handouts for sitting on facebook all day or playing video games.

One party gives away handouts to stay in power, the other wants to reward the working man. Guess which one is which

Another way to look at it is one party is the parent in the divorce who tries to apply some discipline to the kids. The other party is the one who gives them a pony.

Everyone of them should be able to recite the bill of rights and explain what it is

I never have believed the Democrats want everyone to vote. I thought they just wanted everyone registered to vote.

Probably.

They likely view each registration as a proxy for the elites to vote.

It's very obviously not.

And that's why the FFers never intended for anyone who could fog a mirror and that was over a certain age to be able to do it.

Nothing else works that way. Universities don't let students and administrative staff vote on who the university president is. Companies don't let entry level employees vote on who the CEO is. Even though those choices will result in polices that affect all members of the organization.

It's an asinine notion that contradicts all common sense and easily observable phenomenon.

Just ike "diversity is our strength."

Because they want to win elections

The majority want freedom of speech, right to bear arms, and limited government.

They want to bring in minorities and convince them to be scared of the majority, so they can get restricted speech, disarm the population, and expand the government. “To protect them”

Sometimes I wonder what the founding fathers would say. We've gone from fighting "taxation without representation" to mass representation without taxation. And taxes are higher than they ever were in colonial times

When ancient Athens introduced democracy they didn't want stupid people to vote. You had to prove ownership of your property. If you had none then you were too stupid to vote.

Who’s going to frick up everything if they don’t vote? The Demicrats will use them to get power and then repeal all of Trump’s agenda.
