I agree, but the idea is that you need to agree/disagree, and make your arguments. We will be happy to critique your thinking.
Yes, I agree with that argument. Under the Constitution everyone over 18 has the right to vote. Recently there's been a set back as some states are demanding a picture ID in order to vote. I believe the states have an obligation to provide everyone with such identification if they don't already have one.
But the percentage of citizens who actually vote in elections is pathetic. Only 60 percent of American citizens voted in the 2000 presidential election.
