I am one of fourteen high school freshman and I agree with the member Kucinich.

PS Jimmy Carter 2012!

I think you should have to pass a sort of test before you are allowed to vote.

Is this trolling? If he is he is very good, but the thing Jimmy Carter gave away.

I think the NAM are beginning to fear for 2010 and 2012.
Get 'em while they're young and naive.

NO. I want to raise the voting age to 25 years.

No, they should raise it to 21.

You have much to teach junior! Everything that is what you think you know about politics? The country already has too many bleeding heart liberals who believe they have reinvented the wheel!

I think 18 is pretty good. Once children have graduated from high school, I think they sufficiently informed to make decisions at the polls.

Freaking Liberals are NUTS!

No, I think it should be increased to 25 when the brain is fully developed and a person should be required to have at least a high school diploma. They should also have to undergo a basic test of the government. Too many here index Have not how government works.

I am glad that you are taking an interest in politics at a young age (my wish would be for 14 years). It's good to be informed if you do not be discouraged by my answer, but I think you should be allowed to vote once you are actively contributing to society. (Paying taxes or service of your country) I am in favor of increasing the voting age.

In a word, no. Half of the general population of over 18s do not know Jack! T about the politicians they vote for, what makes you think 16 and 17 years know better?

No. If kids could vote, they should be able to drive without restrictions and be able to join the army and beverages. Thus, it leads to a slippery slope. If they had all of these rights, I agree.

Kucinich is an idiot and it's more proof.

And Carter was a horrible president. If you were not even born 14 years after his presidency, you may know that.
