BiggerBoat posted:Gee, I wonder who will write up said "test"? Prager University or Liberty University? Same one for citizenship, so USCIS. It's an extremely easy test, so if implemented as described the issue really wouldn't be people failing for bullshit reasons a la Jim Crow literacy tests but it would be people deciding that it's too much effort just to cast a vote. It would obviously demolish youth turnout, just because extends the process to register to vote by another 30 minutes or an hour. The system is that there's a bank of 100 questions, you're asked 10, you have to get 6 right: https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/questions-and-answers/100q.pdf

There is no way he's dropped 20lbs since then. For reference, here are two people, each in their respective Hall of Fame (Football, Wrestling) who are each listed as 6'3" and 239 lbs.

Angry_Ed posted:Do you really, really think that Republicans would allow an actual test to be made instead of some bullshit fake-rear end "1776 project" nonsense? It's a test that already exists, Ramaswamy's idea is to use that test to keep people from voting. To talk about some other test is just making a voter disenfranchisement policy in order to get mad about it, instead of the actual voter disenfranchisement policy, which is too boring or unobjectionable I guess. The actual proposal is evil because turnout is decreased by increasing the paperwork and bureaucracy associated with registering to vote. This is an important principle to understand because it's also the issue with ID requirements, limitation of same-day registration, and other policies that aren't superficially ideological but obviously skew the vote to the right. This is like if Ramaswamy said the government will buy a King James Bible for every American and someone said, "what sucks is, it probably won't be a King James Bible, it'll probably be a poetically inert translation!"

Civilized Fishbot posted:Same one for citizenship, so USCIS. A lot of people could fail a lot of these questions if they don't go out of their way to study for it. Some of them are absolute softballs (like "What is the name of the President of the United States now?"), but questions like "How many amendments does the Constitution have?" or "What is one promise you make when you become a United States citizen?" would probably throw your average American for a loop. The difficulty can vary widely depending on which questions get asked.
