Repeal the Nineteenth Amendment.

I’ll vote for that, I am more and more amazed at the wisdom of the founding fathers. They weren’t perfect but they were closer to it than we are likely to see again on this Earth.

Of course, the Founding Fathers put nothing in the Constitution about voting and sex. It just never occurred to any of them that a woman should vote.

In every state that extended the inherently male function of voting to women, BEFORE the Nineteenth Amendment, government began to grow IMMEDIATELY.

BTW: I believe that ONLY married men with children, living with and married to the mother of all their children (exception made for men whose first wife has died, and who are married to a second wife) should be allowed to vote. I.e., married men who are the head of an intact household.

This would guarantee that a far larger portion of the voting population would consider POSTERITY, and the actual wisdom and prudence of candidates, and the actual wisdom and prudence of policy proposals.
