It went OK at first, in 1972 with the war and the draft going on, the Republicans won 52% of the 18 to 29 year old vote.

***the argument for allowing children to vote was that 18-year-olds could drink and be conscripted into the military, so they ought to be allowed to vote.**

I read a fictional short story in a magazine back about 1967 about the US dropping the voting age to 16. The teens took over, and kept the older wiser people on drugs to control them.

I don’t remember if it was in ESQUIRE or PLAYBOY (some of us DID read the articles).

I think anyone in the military should be able to drink and vote. Not necessarily at the same time lol!

Anyone else, 21.

My uncle told us of the first time he ever voted backin 1932. He, and others, were working as carpenters on a house when the sheriff showed up.

Sheriff: You boys gona go vote aren’t you?

They boys looked at each other and shook their heads yes(You didn’t say no to the LAW back then).

Sheriff: Well let’s get in the car and go now.

So they piled into the sheriff’s car and went to the polls.

Poll worker: Are you sure these boys are old enough to vote?

Sheriff: HELL YES THEY’RE OLD ENOUGH AND THEY ARE GOING TO VOTE FOR FDR, AREN’T YOU BOYS!

He said they voted for FDR and left and that was the ONLY time he evere voted in his life. He was 18 years old.

And note.. the posting above is a LEGITIMATE excerpt.

Not according to the Blog Nannies.

They say it has to be on the excerpt list or your thread gets hijacked by them.

But if you are correct, then the below post is LEGITIMATE also. Also a good article exposing fraud in the voting system:

Or, if you don't like blogs posted on FR, go Here for the original article. It's is not a blog.

It is a good basis,but I would allow property to include more than just real estate. Some young people. in the age range of consideration, have their own bank accounts, investments etc as well as real estate. They too need to experience the consequences of their decisions.

Obama, ACORN and MTV etc got a lot of those under 25 to the polls in the last two elections.

Or in the case of ACORN, lots of voter cards filled out (multiple times by the same person in many cases, paid $1) and taken to polls by ACORN workers and stuffed into the ballot boxes.

On lady took her mother to the ACORN people (thinking they were legit signing up people to vote) and she got signed up.

When the mother went to the polls to vote, she was told she already voted.

AHHHHIIIII! My eyes! The pimpage! It hurts!

(Sip) Sigh. (Sip) Sigh.

OK, let's try next:

go Here for the original article

YAARRGHHH! EEEIIEEEEP! My eyes! The pimpage! It hurts!

Nope, ain't workin', bud. It hurts with the pimping and the fakery.

There may be good content but it should be posted HERE on FR.

NO pimp should USE us as an advertising platform.

Now I've got to go grab the Visine...

I just read the articles, I don't click on the ads.

In fact I don't even see them as I am busy reading content of articles.

I don't even click on the ads on Coulter’s page

Don't tell her, she thinks I buy everything advertized on her site.

“if everyone under the age of 30 just admitted they voted for Obama”

I am under 30 and most definitely did NOT vote for the Zero. Remember what they say about assuming, Ann.

Eighteen- to 26-year-olds don't have property, spouses, children or massive tax bills.

BS. I had my 4 year degree at age 19. Finished a year of grad school by age 21. Was married at age 21 and owned a condominium at age 21. I paid significant income and property taxes at age 21. My first son was born when I was 23. Ann is way off base with the attack on the age group. Instead, perhaps we need to focus on her complaint. Voters should be tax paying, property owning, productive members of society. Not just persons who have achieved some chronological age by virtue of nothing more than the passage of time. If you don't have "skin in the game", you shouldn't have a voice in how others are burdened with taxes to support those who refuse to be productive.
