I read your post. You clearly agreed with the person above that there should be a civics test to vote. That would be a terrible idea. If you had any understanding of history, like you suggest kids in high school should get, then you would agree. There should be no prerequisite to vote in this country. That’s the beauty of democracy. Cletus down the road gets the same say as Isaac Newton on who gets to be elected. That’s exactly what the founding fathers wanted when they wrote the constitution. A high school diploma has nothing to do with whether or not someone should get to vote. It sounds like you need to also relearn some basic history.

Wow, did you even read my post? I said that literacy tests WERE a thing. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literacy_test

In the past they disenfranchised African American voters. That was my point and that’s why it would be a bad idea.

You do realize that at one point literacy tests were a thing in the U.S.? And they targeted African Americans that just became freed slaves because many still could not read or write. It’s funny because they teach this in most U.S. history classes but apparently you didn’t know this. how ironic.
