You aren't even following the Constitution with your suggestion on voting by merit.

This is a democracy. We have a Constitution that we follow. All are created equal. Every citizen can vote, even radical anarchists and KKK members, and even people "on the far ends" that you think need to be "re-educated".
All are created equal and do not stay that way for very long. Voting by merit sounds like a good idea actually. You should have to earn all rights, nothing should be granted to you simply by birth.
Except of course, life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
This is a constitutional republic not a democracy.
