I think part of the plan is, if they can vote as full adult citizens, the radical gay wing of the democratic party can sodomize them. Look what they’re pushing to our youth. Pot, prostitution, transgenderism, radicalization. They want to make youth a real hell hole.

Let’s just go ahead and lower the voting age to SIX, right after they graduate from kindergarten.

"Pelosi said. "I think it's really important to capture kids when they're in high school, when they're interested in all of this, when they're learning about government, to be able to vote."

Of course. Try to capture them when they still haven't been out in the world enough to understand how manipulative and coercive what they learned in high school was. The left is going full Bolshevik, and Pelosi, for all her outrageousness, is actually one of the more 'temperate' of her party. They clearly don't give a rat's a** what half the population thinks.

The 19th amendment was a mistake.

That must be the age at which their leftist teachers have succeeded in brainwashing the greatest number of kids. There can be no other reason for Pelosi’s pushing for it.

Members of Congress voted down an amendment to the Democrats' voting rights bill last Thursday that sought to lower the federal voting age to 16,

When the voting age was lowered to 18, it was done by passing the 26th Amendment to the Constitution. How can they lower it to 16 by attaching the proposal as an amendment to a bill? Wouldn't that, in effect, repeal the 26th Amendment? I'm asking because I am not clear on the procedure.

BTW -- this was proposed by one of the Dems' fine new Members of Congress, Ms. Pressley of Massachusetts.

Yeah, and scientific research shows that the adolescent brain is not fully developed. How convenient, to have a captive audience of malleable minds to groom to vote dummocrap.

Felons, illegal aliens and children. It’s the only way the rats have a chance of winning.

Well if they’re going to reduce the voting age to 16 why stop there.Why not let kindergarteners sign up to vote?

The Rats Care nothing about the American voter. If they did they would lock down that southern border.

That’s to make her eligible to vote because she has regressed mentally back to 16. Actually, most six year olds are far more coherent than her.

If this had been in place in 1984 I would have been able to vote for Reagan, pushing him from landslide to megalandslide. He needed just one more vote.

A little more seriously, the Constitution sets the voting requirement for the House as "... the Electors in each State shall have the Qualifications requisite for Electors of the most numerous Branch of the State Legislature." So if a state wants a voting age of less than 18 it can do it without Pelosi.

I adhere to the constitution. The founders were brilliant in thought and their ideals. The constitution was true and right in that only land owners should vote.

When we lost that; those that don’t pay for real estate tax, state tax, school tax, city tax etc. We became a welfare country. The democrats push many into non-property owners to keep them ignorant of this.

Sixteen year olds? Studies have proven the brain isn’t fully developed until at least 25. Millennials today, are still qualified as children under

Obamacare!

As Benjamin Franklin stated, “A replubic, if you ca keep lt.”

Of course she does. The more empty skulls full of mush voters the ‘RATS have out there, the better off the commie ‘RATS will be during the elections. Ignorant voters almost always vote for the ‘RATS. How does she feel about 16 year olds buying cigarettes, alcohol, marijuana and firearms? Nasty Nan is a lowlife, bottom feeding hypocrite.

...... There should be a set policy that the Legal Voting age is the same age as the Legal Age for the Military Draft. If you are old enough to vote for the leader of this nation then you are old enough to fight for the United States.

The voting age used to be 21.

It was lowered to 18, only because anyone old enough to fight for the country should have the right to vote.

I’m all for having 16 year olds to start paying taxes so they can truly appreciate how much it costs the taxpayers to send them to school while they are still in school.

Kids under the influence of public teachers unions should not be allowed to bvote.
