Repeal the 26th Amendment first... then we can talk about a replacement.

What would be the point of rescinding the vote from 18-21 year olds? BTW, even if you repeal the 26th Amendment, it would not prevent the states from setting 18 as the voting age - which most, if not all, would continue to do.

OH, wait a sec. I guess you meant the 16th Amendment, which permits the income tax...

"Section 1. The right of citizens of the United States, who are eighteen years of age or older, to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of age.
Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation. "

Please. We don't need this one repealed! What's wrong with you?
