The reason you want to "fix" it is to suppress the vote of people who are not likely to support your candidates. It's got absolutely nothing to do with fraud.
For the record, there is only a tiny percentage of people who support my candidates anyway, so I really don't have a dog in this fight either way. I just can't see anything wrong with making people identify themselves as citizens when they go to choose the people who run the country. Voting is sort of a big deal, imo. We have to show identification for lesser things every day.
