When he got to the lady who asked for an ID, he pulled out some government issued card(don't know what it was), she told him that looked official but wasn't good enough. He pulled out another card and she said that one looked official too but wasn't good enough. At this point he started waving his veterans hat in their faces and said he had to kill young Japanese boys to get the privilege to vote. I felt so bad for him. The lady looked at him and told him she knew exactly who he was but needed a better ID. I was just about ready to stand up for the guy because I knew there were dead people voting in this country somewhere and many have walked across our border and are having an easier time at voting than this patriot was having. Then he found his drivers license and after about 10 min. he was allowed to vote.
