But you (pl) would be more educated on issues than 90% of the population (whether you like it or not, young man
)

Actually, I don't vote based on attack ads or what my preacher says, and every vote I cast is designed with liberty in mind. So you may fall into one of those categories, but I don't.You and I BOTH fall into this group whether you would like to admit it or not.
A fatal mistake is to assume that you are "in the know" while everyone else is not.Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/DaveDaDouche

No, I'm telling you right now that preachers and attack ads don't influence my vote. I'm also telling you that, believe it or not, I don't vote for the candidate that will dump the most social programs my way - I vote for the one who will be best for individual liberty, ie, I keep liberty for myself and others in mind when I'm voting.Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/DaveDaDouche

And I'm sure the people you are calling, "morons" feel the exact same way that you do.

Sad that Comrade Tassadar makes the best serious points on this issue.

I think they should raise the voting age back up to 21. Kids are idiots.

If Ozzy insists that 16 year old Americans should be entitled to the right to vote, I would like to know if he insists that 16 year olds need to take with that right, all the ADULT obligations of citizenship??A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.Comment

I would say that 17 is a good minimal age to vote.
