     In this  state both  statutes and  judicial  decisions  have
     recognized the  fundamental right  of citizens generally not
     only to  vote but also to hold office (Gov. Code, Secs. 274,
     275, Carter  v. Comm. on Qualifications, etc. (1939) 14 Cal.
     2d 179,  182, 93  P.2d 140,  People v.  Washington (1869) 36
     Cal. 658, 662) ....

               [Fort v. Civil Service Com'n of County of Alameda]
                                            [392 P.2d 385 (1964)]

Since this authority defines voting to be a fundamental Right,
you can raise the possibility of a violation of 18 U.S.C. 242,
and possibly also 241 (if there were 2 or more conspiring to
deprive you of your fundamental Right to choose your Representative
in the House of Representatives, pursuant to Art. I, Section 2,
Clause 1), because you are one of the "People of the several States"
as that term is utilized in the U.S. Constitution.  Said term has
never been amended or repealed and, as a state Citizen, you are
guaranteed a Republican form of Government by the Guarantee 
Clause.  The voter registration form is evidence that a legislative
democracy has invaded the several States of the Union;  said form
is all the proof you need that the Guarantee Clause is being 
violated, and that Guarantee is a fundamental Right of all 
state Citizens, on a par with their fundamental Right to choose
their Representative in the Congress every 2 years.

There was only one class of citizenship when the U.S. Constitution 
was ratified;  the second class of federal citizens was created 
by the 1866 Civil Rights Act.  This second class is a franchise 
belonging to the District of Columbia.  Thus, you can argue 
effectively that the voter registration requirement -- 
that all registrants be federal citizens -- can be reduced 
to the absurd, namely, the voter registration form excludes 
those who are the only ones currently eligible for the 
3 elective offices in the federal government.  

Those are Representative, Senator, and President.  
See 1:2:2, 1:3:3, and 2:1:5, respectively.

This result is absurd, because it leads to this conclusion:
the very Citizens who are eligible for these elective offices
cannot choose any candidates for those offices on election day.
In other words, they are prevented from voting for themselves.
So, one can be a qualified candidate, but that same Person cannot
vote for any qualified candidates.  

The Law does not countenance absurd results;  
"Lex non cogit impossibilia":
The Law does not compel the doing of impossibilities.

See also "Reductio ad absurdum" in Black's Law Dictionary.

Pretty absurd, if you ask me!

If you want to add punch to this argument, be sure to cite the
Supremacy Clause, which renders the Guarantee Clause the
supreme Law of the Land!

Last but not least, be sure to cite Public Law 93-579, Act
December 31, 1974, Section 7, 88 Stat. 1909, to wit:

"It shall be unlawful for any Federal, State or local 
government agency to deny to any individual any right,
benefit, or privilege provided by law because of such
individual's refusal to disclose his social security
account number."

This statute was hidden when it was not codified with
the rest of the Privacy Act in Title 5, United States Code.
You will find it in the Historical Notes in Title 5,
where very few people bother to read!  So, we have established
that choosing your Representative every 2 years is not only
a Right;  it is a FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT!!

>Your petitioner respectfully represents as follows:
>	1.	The General Registrar for the City of Charlottesville has denied
>petitioner's application to register to vote because he did not provide a
>Social Security Number on said application.
>	2.	The following facts are stated in support of petitioner's right to

>	a.	Petitioner is a natural born citizen of the Kansas Republic, and so of

>since 1972.  See Exhibit "A", DECLARATION OF STATE CITIZENSHIP, dated 17
>January 1997.
>	b.	Petitioner has diligently studied the context of laws regarding the 14th
>Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and the consequences of applying for this
>PRIVILEGED CITIZENSHIP. During this study petitioner learned that when a
>natural born Citizen of one of the States of the Union applies for a Social

>in the Federal United States [26 USC 3306(j)(2)], FORFEITS his native-born

>	e.	Even if petitioner had signed a Social Security Application, petitioner
