And how about Heinlein's approach (R. H. - sf author of some controversy).

As I recall, he wanted to present anyone who entered a voting booth to vote
with a randomly generated quadratic equation with integer roots. You had
some limited time to solve the eqn, or you couldn't vote (thus assuring some
minimal iq of the voters, i suppose, at least if you prevented calculators
from being in the booths as well). He also mentioned that we could improve
the species at the same time - if you couldn't solve the eqn, you never
left the booth! (I believe I saw these in an essay in Expanded Universe,
previously published).
