Yes, register every moron and mouth-breather, who'll vote for whoever gives them the most money and keeps them entertained. No effort to acquire the franchise at all.
Pure democracy in action.

The founding fathers made no provision to exclude morons and mouth-breathers. Neither does the Constitution.

When you say things like “wouldn’t it be fun to see the [out-group]’s heads explode when [your in-group] gets re-elected,” you are voting to keep yourself entertained.
No effort to acquire the franchise at all.
The founding fathers set no bar in terms of “effort” to acquire the franchise, neither does the Constitution.
Why do you keep wanting to deviate from the Constitution?

The founding fathers also had a great respect for the responsibilities of a free people as well as their rights. We seem to have lost that.

Ah, there’s that word again, “responsibilities”, a word you keep throwing around but have never clarified what those “responsibilities” are or should be (and to be fair, the founding fathers haven’t either).

Why should I waste time expounding on a subject we have covered repeatedly?
Nobody ever does that here

Consider for a minute just how difficult it actually was to vote in the 1780s…Most of the country was still agrarian. You didn’t have a polling location that was a 15 minute walk or a 5 minute drive away… Exercising your right to vote would typically require a pretty heavy burden on the voter in time and effort.
