i think the idea in the OP was tests for basic intelligence or knowledge in order to vote, but by having psychologists do it, the point is not that at all.
it's to measure whether people are thinking right.
yikes again.
but your position is theoretical and won't happen with any democratic support --look at the poll results.
to enact your position, it's clear that you would have to get together with Republicans and conservatives because there is likely almost no support from liberals for the idea.
(okay, and so what if you don't want it to be a psychological test and you don't like me suggesting that --well then why have it developed by psychologists? because that's what it will be...like i said, this is just carrying your idea forward and that's where it likely would lead)
