I'm pretty liberal about a lot of things, but WOW is that a stretch. Giving up civil liberties to have an ID? What civil liberties?
I don't think there's anything in the Constitution that states you have the right to be anonymous and have access to any other right. The Constitution is for citizens, without an ID, how does anyone prove they're a citizen?
I don't think that anyone passing through the country (or worse) gets the right to vote.
Don't forget, at the time the Constitution was written, physical access to the country was quite difficult.
