REAKING: President Obama Wants To Propose 'Mandatory Voting.' It would change everything.

Mandatory voting? Obama says it would be 'transformative


WASHINGTON (AP) — They say the only two things that are certain in life are death and taxes. President Barack Obama wants to add one more: voting.

Obama floated the idea of mandatory voting in the U.S. while speaking to a civic group in Cleveland on Wednesday. Asked about the corrosive influence of money in U.S. elections, Obama digressed into the related topic of voting rights and said the U.S. should be making it easier — not harder— for people to vote.

Just ask Australia, where citizens have no choice but to vote, the president said.

"If everybody voted, then it would completely change the political map in this country," Obama said, calling it potentially transformative. Not only that, Obama said, but universal voting would "counteract money more than anything."

Instead of making it mandatory just make it easier.

Give us the day off.

Let us vote anywhere.

Remove the electoral college.

Remove the (D) or (R) next to the candidates.

They would need to give us the day off and move voting day to Wednesday. If it stayed on a Tuesday folks would take Monday off and go on a vacation.
