I am reading about both sides of the argument on the issue if voters should be legally required to show an ID before being able to vote for elections.
One of the arguments against requiring voters to show an ID is "it excludes legitimate voters who do not have documentary proof of citizenship, such as elderly people, students living away from home, or married people who adopt the surname of their spouses".
But if you are unable to proof your citizenship, yet are a citizen, how can you then fight an accusation brought against you that you should be deported because you are an illegal alien? You are a citizen, so you have no documents proofing you are a legal immigrant, because you are a citizen, so obviously you have no green card, etc. You also can not proof you are a citizen apparently (the quote above says some people just can't proof it). Then if you can not proof you are a citizen and you can not proof you are a legal immigrant, then how can you defend yourself against the accusation you are an illegal alien and should be deported?
If you are a citizen and can't proof it, shouldn't you be worried? Any person having a grudge against you can have you deported by lying to the government by telling them the lie that you are an illegal alien. He can put you in serious trouble because you can not proof otherwise.
