The ability to vote should not be taken from someone just because he/she is convicted and is in prison. It should be related to him/her being an american citizen. If they judge it according to how those people are really committed to the well-fare of the american society, and since they are not so law-abiding they shouldn’t get a chance to provide their opinion or advice concerning what may help or may not help the american nation as a whole because if they were really caring about the good of our country they wouldn’t have already broken the law or committed a crime is easily thrown against the wall by admitting that numerous people who have a clean sheet in terms of their crime history or crime record really are so not concerned about the prosperity or the well fare of the United States of america or any part of the world for that matter, they are just living the moment with disregard to what is going on anywhere on this planet, and they still get to vote unchecked about any topic they are allowed to vote about it.
