As I was waiting in the circuit clerk's office today to exercise my right to vote (which is the only exercise I've done today), I happen to read the Mississippi Code of 1972 as it pertains to voter qualifications. The first sentence of sec 23-15-11 reads "Every inhabitant of this state, except idiots and insane persons......shall be entitled to vote at any election." Don't believe me, check it out for yourself at http://www.mscode.com/free/statutes/23/015/0011.htm Based on some of our elected officials, it's apparent to me that more than a few people that are not entitled to vote have slipped through the cracks. You might say " Walter, Walter, what's the point, man?" Well, I don't suppose I had a point, but you can prove you're not an idiot (and reclaim your right to vote) by contributing to Philip's personal St. Jude Hero page at http://heroes.stjude.org/philipschrader Other than the fact that he is a lawyer, and his aversion to capital letters, he really is a good guy.
