I do not understand the cry to make voting easier.  Frankly, a right as important as is the right to vote ought to require a little serious thought, and some effort on the part of the voter.  When voting is made mundane and ordinary, we loose the respect we all should have for that right and privilege.  It is not something one acquires simply by having aged to age 18.  Even the right to drive a car legally requires obtaining a license.  Isn't voting at least as important as that?
