It really is a conspiracy! They think that if they can stop us from voting 2 or 3 times they may get back in office.
But it won't work 'cause we have the undead (dead) voters on our side.

Lets say that you did write a bad check. Would the US government help track you down? Don't think so. But if you have their credit card # you can try to use that to cover their check – just incase they
thought that they had the money in the bank. Simple mistake
On top of that he may never have seen a passport. I haven’t.

A drivers license just means that you have shown ID and can pass minimal tests. You don't need insurance or a car.

Take it easy. Where did you get THAT idea from. Certainty not from what he said.
Lets face it. The powers that be can spy on any one of us at any time that they want to. The Lack of a national ID system isn’t going to slow them down at all. So stop being paranoid.
A national ID system is not anti emigrant or anti minority. Its time has come. So stop trying to manufacture trouble and animosity.
