Because democracy only works when the voters are good. If a large majority of voters were Nazis then a Hitler would be elected. Similarly, I wouldn't want people who are proven to do something criminal to influence who becomes my leader.
- Crye 8y ago> Because democracy only works when the voters are good. If a large majority of voters were Nazis then a Hitler would be elected. Similarly, I wouldn't want people who are proven to do something criminal to influence who becomes my leader. Bringing up Nazis is a little more then ironic in this context. Considering the Nazi's passed laws to remove citizenship and prevent voting for a large portion of their population. On September 15, 1935, at a party rally in Nuremberg, the Nazis announced two new laws that changed who could be a German citizen. The Reich Citizenship Law required that all citizens have German “blood.” As a result, Jews and others lost their rights to citizenship, which not only stripped them of the right to vote but also made them stateless. This meant that they could not get a valid passport for travel between countries or acquire a visa to leave Germany. Allowing everyone to vote is fundamental to democracy.
