I have lived and had drivers licenses in Maryland, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, South Carolina, California, Texas and maybe some states I forgot and NEVER have had to produce proof of citizenship for a drivers license, voting, residency, schools or any other function. In fact I have never been asked to provide proof of citizenship for any function, license or registration.

quote: In my opinion, there is a clear high road in this debate. Encouraging citizen participation is the high road and blocking both citizen participation and naturalization out of fear of how folks might vote is clearly the low road. I don't give a crap if the two opposing goals are partisan, the path of disenfranchising voters is clearly the non-democratic path. I agree we should not dilute the quality of the national electorate by including more people who knew little about the issues or the candidates and so maybe a reasonable condition to register to vote would be to have the prospective take the same tests that immigrants take to become citizens with the same requirements to pass. Certainly any natural born voter should be as informed and knowledgeable about democracy and the Republic as them damn brown furrners. Edited by jar, : applain spallin

But wait, there's more.
If you have ever looked at the test that immigrants take to become citizens you would realize that it would mean probably 90% of the US citizenry will become ineligible to vote. The quality of the national electorate will then be assured. Think of the time saved when only a few tens thousand votes need be counted, almost all from recently immigrated naturalized citizens.

I can only repeat that I have never been asked to show anything related to being a citizen so far. I will have to renew my license in 2020 or late 2019 and so I can report back then

Yeah, I saw that so I just ordered a copy of my Birth Certificate. I've never had one before.

Phat writes: Trump says he hits back harder, so what will he do? Historically what he has done is throw anyone else under the bus; he will shout "Yes they are guilty and should be drawn & quartered for taking advantage of me and committing all those sins" What he has never done historically is declare "Mea Culpa".

That's certainly a reasonable conclusion and honestly il Donald is hardly worth the effort to impeach. The world should simply continue to ignore the fool, refuse to commit the crimes he requests, let the courts continue to overturn his most stupid mistakes and let the whole rest of the world enjoy laughing at the US and il Donald.
At least he is a wonderful source for late night comedy. Once he's out of office, follow the money and leave the whole family on the dole.

One important thing to remember is that there are limits on Presidential Pardons.
A President cannot grant pardons related to an Act of Impeachment. A President cannot grant a pardon for any State or Local crimes. A President cannot issue pardons for any crimes committed in any other Nation. This is why it is so important to Follow the Money. If the money trail shows any State, Local, or International crimes were committed by Trump or Trump Inc or any of the Trump family or any of the Trumpians those crimes cannot be pardoned by Trump or any other President.
