In his column “Republicans consider ballots more dangerous than bullets,” when he states that “in America, you see, everybody should have the right to vote, period,” Leonard Pitts Jr. misses one very important item: Our Constitution states that “citizens of the United States” have the right to vote, not anybody living in the United States.

We need strong voter ID, especially for mail-in ballots. You cannot cash a check, enter a federal government building, fly anywhere, reenter our country from outside of it, enter Canada or Mexico, etc., without a valid ID.

Wake up America, before we lose the best country ever founded in the world.
