Foofie, the terms "education" and "intelligent vote" are problematic. It seems to me that even within our current modern democracy in the US, different groups would have quite different ways to define each of these terms.


Yes. Naturally, anyone that votes the way I vote is voting intelligently.

But, there are differing agendas within the population. So, I do not think there can be a paradigm to vote intelligently. The word "intelligent," when relating to voting might need to be replaced with the word "effective." One might just want to "vote effectively," for one's agenda?
