This is a constitutional republic not a democracy.
Ah - you do not want democracy, nor a constitutional republic. And unfortunately, you want those that "earn rights" to only be those that agree with you. I hate to break it to you, but all American citizens have the right to vote. It is their birthright as a citizen. Even citizens you don't personally like. Thank God for that. This country is great because it embraces diversity and individuality.
