[DeTomaso] Re: An Appology

People who do become citizens legally often no more American history
than most Americans.   They do have to take a history test. 
 
I think everyone in this country needs to have 2 years government of
military service.  Works well in other parts of the world.  I would like
to send all the brats on my street to basic training!!!

	At risk of exposing my radical side,  I don't think citizenship
(and thus voting rights) should be given to anyone.  I think some form
of service (military or civil) should be required.  I also would like
some form of testing to show a minimum understanding of our history
before anyone can vote.  It is obvious that this could be abused, but
the current system doesn't work either, so I'd rather risk the abuse.  
	 
	And raise the voting age to 30.
