Thing is, there's a bunch of morons who will chime in agreeing that it's just common sense.
Quote:
The centerpiece of the law is a strict new mandate for voter identification, that?s more notable for what it bans than what it permits. Of the various forms of state-issued ID, only four are valid for voting: driver?s licenses, passports, veteran?s IDs, and tribal cards. Everything else is unacceptable. This includes college IDs, public or municipal employee IDs, ID from public-assistance agencies, and out-of-state driver?s licenses.
It?s no accident that those are the excluded categories. As with similar laws in other states, the restrictions target Democratic voters, from students and young people?who are more likely to rely on university-issued identification?to public employees and the poor. And of course, a large share of these voters are black and Latino. Overall, the state estimates that as many as 318,000 voters could lack (PDF) appropriate identification.

In NC you can be on public assistance from the state but can't use that card as identification. Common sense. For idiots.
