Voter ID scandal - encouraging young people getting a firearm licence?

People who have fought for this country, those who has lived in this country their whole life and the students, the future of our country, no longer have the edibility to vote - is this fair? What message does this give our population?

In a video made by Sarah Silverman, she describes the voter fraud in the US.

Here she mentions that students who are important for the future of the US can't use their student ID to vote but how gun owners can use their firearm permit.

Let's look back to the 1960's when African-Americans in the South states were tested for the edibility to vote. They had to pass an impossible test, the so-called literacy test. The African-Americans weren't seen as real American citizen and eligible to vote. Therefore, the test was made to be failed to prevent them from having a political influence.

Last year (November 2014) Harvard Students was given the same literacy test from the 1964 as the African-Americans were given. Not a single one of them passed. The test questions had to be done within 10 minutes. Questions both vaguely-worded and didn't define their edibility to vote.

We can all agree that the literacy test was disenfranchisement and a fake science. Can’t we all agree that the current voter issue is the same now?
