Fully in agreement Jay - what I have seen and heard of today's younger teens i.e. 16/17 year olds - they need guidance on where to apply the toilet paper - trust them with the vote? No way. Even 18 is dubious but as said earlier - if they can die for the country then they should be allowed the vote.
