The purpose
of this page is to document the citizenship requirements for various
political rights by state. We will show you the laws in each state
that define the citizenship requirements for those exercising political
rights. The subject of political rights is
covered more thoroughly in The
Great IRS Hoax, section 4.12.5 entitled "Citizenship and all
political rights are INVOLUNTARILY exercised and therefore CANNOT be
taxable and cannot be privileges".
