House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) proposed lowering the voting age to 16 years old or 17 years old.
“To achieve what we want to do for the middle class, for kids in school, for immigration reform, for all these things, we must change our politics. We must reduce the role of money in politics. We must dare to do that and so we have a dare, disclose, where is this money coming from, this dark money? Amend the Constitution to overturn Citizens United. Let’s get out there and mobilize and do it. Reform our campaign system to empower small donors and empower voters with a renewed and strengthened Voting Rights Act, removing obstacles of participation,” Pelosi said at the Make the Progress summit sponsored by the Center for American Progress.
“I’m for – and I’m interested in hearing your thoughts, and I know you’ll let me know – for lowering the voting age to high school age, whether it’s 16 or 17 or, because when kids are in school they’re so interested, they’re so engaged, and we would like them to be ready at least to register before they leave.”

Her reasoning is that she wants the age to be the equivalent of the average Democrat voter IQ.

Because, fright wig hag that she is, she is the very doppleganger to the character Anne Bancroft played in their favorite manly female movie— “The Graduate”... namely Mrs. Robinson the “cougar”.
Her constituency is largely male queers, transvestites, and the lesbian, and transgenders. She is a frightful machine democrat import, whose father was a criminal democrat mayor of Baltimore. Her name is D’alessandro.
I like it! Same as Pelosi’s I.Q. that way she can follow the conversation if everyone uses small words.
Agreed.
How about making the voting age 11 years old for all citizens of Mexico so they can vote in US elections? how about something a Clintonista once said—Black People should be able to vote twice?
Just drop the voting age as well as the age to have consensual sex and abortions to 12 and the liberals will have achieved their goals
Anti-Illegal activist Espinosa is speaker at future Hispanic Patriot Republicans.
Hispanic Patriot Republicans meet in Buford, Ga Tues, Aug 4. 6:30 pm. I assume I will go, although it seems like a long drive for a weeknight. I don’t know the location yet, some restaurant with special area, probably. I assume I’ll get an email telling me where.
I went to the June and July meetings. Over 50 people at each event and only 40% overlap in attendance. So total about 80 have attended at least one meeting.
The Hispanic Patriot Republican Puerto Rican leader is closer to Atomic and Espinosa on immigration than I am. The treasurer seems more libertarian Republican, like me. It’s good that the group has a broad base of all types of Patriot/conservative/libertarian Republicans. RINOs not welcome.
“They can practice this shit in California - see how it turns out there first.
I’m sure it would not be noticeable there.
