The latest study I have seen proves this, more college graduates are registered Republicans. Of course thats ignoring the vast majority that are independent, but I digress.
Since Republicans are generally more likely to have graduated from college . . .
Yeah, but they're a buncha engineers and doctors - they have no empathy!
No, not an IQ test, a test of knowledge about the candidates and issues. You shouldn't vote if you don't have a clue about what you're voting for. We should all have done our homework before we feel any satisfaction about participating in a democracy.
What we really need is a small group or party to serve as a vanguard for the American people to lead Americans into a glorious future. A party whose patriotism , wisdom and vision would be unchallenged as a matter of course.
Now give yourself a cookie if you know who first proposed this wonderful idea.
It should be required that you take a short IQ test for your eligibility to vote. No more idiots or lunatics voting for the likes of Michelle Bachman, John Boehner, and Mitch McConnel. Three of the worst people in the world allowed to hold high positions in congress or run for president. Absolutely disgusting.
Horrible idea. Who designs the test? You realize even the Stanford IQ test has its flaws?
It isn't IQ for voting you are after but IQ for running for office. Had we had such limits the likes of W would never have been seen,well guess it would have given the family another item to try to cover over.
I think for voting we don't need the IQ test but rather a comprehension test regarding the issues. Is it to much to ask people to be informed?
We test kids regularly but people we let ride after 18... shouldn't education be a national priority for all ages? why do we think anyone is beyond being responsible for learning?
I would agree with a knowledge based test. The problem is not intelligence, but willful ignorance. That would mean that people would have to actually get their facts from someone other than Fox news and Rush Limbaugh.

I don't like them. I think they do not properly assess someones ability to reason as needed in such a situation. I have scored in a wide range of results from them ranging from average to far above Mensa level.
There is no consistency in their evaluation, nor is there any reasonable means to establish an appropriate level of measure.
