"People should get off their butts" to register and vote
Senator Rand Paul just finished a visit to the UK College of Law, which was sponsored by the Federalist Society. I was on the panel to ask questions. In response to my question about how we can fix our election system, after he first said that the story about the 102-year-old woman who waited 6 hours in line to vote was fanciful because anyone would have let her cut the line, part of his response was the following gem:
"It should require some effort to register and vote. People should get off their butts."
