Apparently, Congressman Todd Akin yearns for a return to the 1950s, when state governments could decide just who could or could not vote and enforce those laws by any means possible, judging from this interview with Charles Jaco of Fox 2 in St. Louis.

"The picture of the free citizen in the voting both, 'alone with his conscience and a lead pencil,' is appealing and too rare. For how much of the world's population does it exist, except as a faint hope for the future? Perhaps one sixth, possibly not so many. We shall not lightly nor easily surrender this basic right." - from "Only the Brave Are Free" by Donald Richberg and Albert Britt (1958)
