[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 1921636, member: 12952"] Repeal the 26th Amendment . Adopted in 1971 at the tail end of the Worst Generation's anti-war protests, 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. But 18-year-olds aren't allowed to drink anymore. We no longer have a draft. In fact, while repealing the 26th Amendment, we ought to add a separate right to vote for members of the military, irrespective of age. Obamacare defines an adult as someone who has reached the age of 26 . Using that as a guideline all laws should be adjusted to match . The old motto was "Old enough to fight, old enough to vote." The new motto is: "Not old enough to buy your own health insurance, not old enough to vote." [URL]http://townhall.com/columnists/anncoulter/2010/11/10/repeal_the_26th_amendment[/URL]! [/QUOTE]
