Our forefathers at one time, established that ONLY landowners could vote.

Makes a lot of sense.

They also didn’t let women or blacks vote. Make sense?

I still think only net tax payers and/or property owners should be allowed to vote. No one else has any “stake” in the outcome of the election,

except for those that seek to use the government to take from others what they haven’t earned for themselves.
