No one is advocating that there be a test to determine voting rights. What we're saying is that public education needs to be a serious funding priority so that every person has the ability to fully understand issues that are critical to our governance. Stuff like macroeconomics, international diplomacy, and the critical importance of the scientific process in determining what is factual.
