Yeah, that's my thinking. I do not believe that every breathing person should be entitled to vote. There should be some kind of qualification: served in the military, pays income tax, knows how many states there are... something. It's stupid to let welfare lifers, criminals, non-citizens, and imbeciles pick our leaders.
