We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

Birth certificate
Right but the question is how else to prove citizenship without that. We’re going in circles now.
And unless your parents kept it in good condition on your behalf until you were old enough to keep it, it costs time and money for a replacement. Once again, paywalling the voting process.
I could get down with your suggestion to use passports, provided they’re not paywalled when you need a new one.
Alternatively we could use SSN and either allow those that are not citizens but pay taxes to vote, or update the SSN system to differentiate between citizens and non-citizens. It’s our best and most complete db of American citizens, which is why I bring it up again. It would require the least effort to use in this way.
