“And who was allowed to vote in 1789?”
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I think that is the real elephant in the living room that so many ignore. Any 18 year old, even one who is still trying to make it through high school or has dropped out and is dependent on his parents to put food on his plate and furnish a bed for him to sleep on is allowed to vote! This is the height of absurdity.
That blade cuts both ways, at least in principle. Too much dependency can snuff out the hope of bettering your circumstances, but the smoke that Obama was blowing about a bright America that never came might help to keep that hope alive.
Unmarried/divorced (the left made divorce easy on purpose) women vote overwhelmingly for the “daddy state”.
How does that demographic compare, in voting percentages, to the general under-21 crowd?
