[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]BLD, I have to produce an identification card to purchase a pair of jean shorts for my DC recently. Is this consumer suppression?[/quote]

Voting is a right protected by the constitution. Buying shorts is not a protected right. The bar necessary to do one should not be the same in both cases. Moreover, you could have chosen to pay cash and would not have needed an identification card.

The issue is not simply the requirement for an ID card, but the type of IDs allowed. In many cases, photo IDs that individuals have are not allowed. One example in some cases is a student ID from a university. Most of us have driver's licenses. But, elderly folks who don't drive have probably let theirs expire. It is very clear that these laws will prevent legitimate voters from voting. It is not clear that they will prohibit illegitimate voters from voting since that is not a demonstrated problem. How many people are you willing to deprive of their constitutional rights in order to combat a non-existant problem simply because you recently purchased shorts?

everyone can get a passport at the post office[/quote]

If tomorrow Obama free money to all that get a passport or voter id card, everyone would get one. Those people that can't take the time to get proper ID don't' value their right to vote.[/quote]
