Time to raise the voting age back to 21 (or maybe 23) for everyone who isn’t a member or honorably discharged veteran of the military, active or reserve.

This subject came up in Harry Truman's Presidency. Has asked if the voting age should be lowered to 18, because a man old enough to give his life should be able to vote.

His reply? Makes more sense to raise it to 28.
