It is not enough to say that he is a racist but it is more than just that. Tancredo does not have that authority to determine who is U.S. citizenship material based on their educational background. Who is he to say if someone doesn't know how to spell a word such as "vote" than they should be denied citizenship. Education is NOT given but ACQUIRED. Many people who come into the US looking for acceptance and citizenship without the acquired educational element, like many Americans do.
It is not fair to judge someone based on their educational background, this is why many people come to America, to find good schools that can assist them in expanding their minds. Many countries and nations do not offer the educational tools in order to prosper. So if Tancredo suggestively denies people of their rights to become citizens by requiring them to take a literacy test this will minimize the number of people that could become citizens, is this fair?
I do believe that Tancredo intentionally requested a literacy test to limit non-educated persons to join unity with the US, which is what the government did to discriminate against blacks.
