As a result, it would be fair to say that eligible voters are disenfranchised with the system and potentially don't vote as they believe it will not matter.

Thus there is a perception of fraud and utlimately a fairly simple solution which can be implemented relatively easily.

I believe several understand the issue of mobility challenged individuals and that most are willing to find a solution for those individuals.

There is a view that the system is broken, so why not provide a solution that creates more confidence in the system, rather than leaving things as they are?

that's ridiculous.

does the incidence of paranoia mean that someone is truly in danger?

I suppose this is where we have a fundamental disagreement.

Here are the differences:

1) You don't believe there is a problem, thus you don't see the need to fix anything.

2) I believe that there is a problem and I would support a change that requires voters to show proof of citizenship.

As long as we disagree on the problem itself, then finding a middle ground in terms of a solution is perhaps unatainable.

I would like to extend to you my appreciation for this discussin with you. I'm looking forward to future discussions with you, strictly for the ability to have a rational discussion with someone who is typically on the opposite side of political issues as I am.

Take care,
