License

When you get your drivers license, they tell you that it's a privilege and if you are wise and obey the traffic laws you will get to keep your license. But if you are foolish and repeatedly make poor choices you will probably loose your license.
What if voting was like that? You get to the polls... A tall lean man with a beard and a New England accent reviews your voting record. (The New England accent strikes you as odd since you're in Southern Oklahoma but you're afraid it will lead to a long conversation that you'd just as soon not be in so you don't say anything about it, or the smell of shrimp that is now assaulting your sinuses) "Says here you voted for Bush, twice, he's really made a mess of things, one more strike and your voting license will be suspended, choose wisely."
