Plesse igmore amd axxept applogies in adbance fir anu typos
gzt:JimsonWeed: Have any of you ever studied under the higher education system in the US at schools such as Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, Rice, UCLA, etc.?
Taking as an example, the many comments about Trump, there are already plenty of alumni of your named institutions making those objections also.
Perhaps you would like to go further and suggest a degree from one of those institutions should be required to vote? ; )
Why would I suggest something such as that? I don't care if people want to remain ignorant and unwashed. :) I can only offer sources of knowledge to help them. It's up them as to whether or not they use it or simply tinkle on it and walk away. Shoot, we should all just peel off our clothes, build fires, dance in the moonlight, and tell each other tales of the gods! Argh... bring back the dark ages! Let the sword determine who will be King! 
gzt:JimsonWeed:
I Interpreted the first paragraph to mean that your posts are very long and digressive and contain multiple tracks tangential to the topic.
For instance, from your previous post we learned that immigration is the cause of more meeting requests.
Lastly, in a previous post you asked for some references that were acceptable to you and freitasm responded with a graph from the US Bureau of Statistics. You appeared to ignore that post enitrely and did not comment on it. Then in a subsequent post you are asking for references again.
You got all that from;
blakamin: I'm gunna need some of this weed that this dude is smoking...
*May be a lie depends on who you ask or voted for apparently*
1: Damn... you're good :)
2: Immigration is the cause of meeting requests... :) Cute
3: I saw the graph but what did the "picture" actually say? I have no idea. I don't recall seeing any context around it at all. 
4: I read a post a few moments ago where @tdgeek was asking someone to provide a reference on something also. So, it's not uncommon to ask someone to prove something in question .

freitasm:JimsonWeed:freitasm:Apparently Democrats reduced unemployment, made healthcare more accessible to the poorest and middle-class and improved minimum wage. Exactly what Republicans don't want.
With all due respect, can you cite your sources? [Snip]
If you have sources other than the Huffington Post or Fox News, by all means, share it.
Unemployment rate in the USA is now lower than when Obama started - 50% lower actually. If you look at the charts you will see who was in charge when unemployment went up. Go on, make your own charts here (US Bureau of Statistics).
Uninsured population is now the lowest in eight years, according to Gallup. You can play with numbers from KFF.org here.

Excellent! Now examine this statement; "Unemployment rate in the USA is now lower than when Obama started - 50% lower actually". The graph is real, absolutely, yep, yep, yep... completely agree. BUT, it does not provide one iota of evidence that the unemployment rate is lower as a result of Obama's actions. That is exactly what I was talking about when I said, "Correlation does not imply causation". It is false logic. Just because two events appear related, it does not mean that they are related. Here we go again... cite the source that proves the two are related. :)
The original discussion was;

A pretty picture next to an unattached statement does not quite cut the mustard, bruh :) I could just have easily say that my brother Bob went to America and as a result, the Unemployment rate is now lower. Gee, Bob must have worked wonders :) *chuckle* I'll bet a light just went on in your head. You get the point now. We didn't even address the comment; "Exactly what Republicans don't want". Well now.. that is mighty clairvoyant to know the hearts and minds of all Republicans. I wonder if Ms Cleo has a role open on the Psychic Friends Network :)

I personally would require a passport to be presented at the booth, to be exchanged for a voting paper. At the same time, a stamp saying "Voted 2017" or whatever could be put in the passport. A DL lacks any form of biometrics at the moment so is too easy to forge.
The main issues in the UK I have seen reported revolve around postal voting and certain 'religious' enclaves.
Postal voting should be banned, with online voting using one time log-ons or something to replace it.
