Voter i.d. and registration laws are a crazy quilt patchwork with each state making its own rules about who's allowed to register and vote and which hoops you have to jump through to earn the privilege (which is supposed to be a right, but it isn't a lot of places). EVERY American should have the SAME rights, but that's just not the case under the present setup. In some states, registering to vote is a walk in the park, while in others you practically have to be an Olympic level gymnast to perform the acrobatics that are required.

What you propose would streamline the whole process and assure the same rights for all.
