I'm with the Republican here. I think they should do a drug test on the proposer of this amendment because he's got to be smoking something.

Since this thread was 1st, this is the official place to post about 14 yearold valley girls voting for the next senator from California. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Just a thought...if a 16 year old is old enough to work and pay taxes should he/she also be considered old enough to vote? Or should someone under legal voting age be exempt from paying taxes? Would you call this taxation without representation?

How many 14 year olds care about voting? You should have heard some of the things on the radio where DJ's were playing a joke and the kids had no clue.

At 16, I didn't know any other 16 year olds who cared about anything other than getting their licence and driving. Well, some other things, but not voting or politics.
