The metric system

Tom Alciere addresses Andrew Yang, one of the Democrats running for President, in Nashua on 1 January 2020. <sarcasm>Alciere should be working for Project Vote Smart, the way he phrases the question without the slightest hint of bias.</sarcasm>

Q: Does Tom Alciere want to secure the blessings of the metric system to ourselves and our posterity, or is he on the side of the dummies who are proud they don’t even know the metric system?

Article I §8 clause 5 of the United States Constitution clearly empowers Congress to fix the standard of weights and measures. I will support measures to secure the blessings of the metric system to ourselves and our posterity, such as declaring speed limits and zoning restrictions null and void if they are not metric, and forcing States to accept metric units on driver license applications. When my wife applied for Naturalization in 2016, the instructions clearly said not to use metric units on the application, and that is clearly a violation of U.S. Code, Title 15 §204. The dummies must not be allowed to deprive us of the benefits of metric measure.
