He may not be able to read B from bullsfoot. and he may not even know who is on the ticket. but his sixthgrade certificate would. nevertheless. qualify him to vote. On the other hand. someone who had not gone to school. and who may be as smart as Abraham Lincolnwho did not go to school eitherwould be subject to a test. We could at least require a voter to meet the standards expected of a foreigner before he can be naturalized. What do we require of a foreigner? We provide that he must be able to read and write English.
