The 26th amendment gave the right to vote to 18 -20 year old citizens. Yet 18-20 year olds have historically been least likely to vote. I believe that in 2008 it is more important than ever before that the youth of America get out and vote!!! Why you ask?
If the Republicrats hold on to power, the youth of america will suffer the
most. The Democrats have stood by and watched as the Republican Party has systematically
been waging a war against youth since the Reagan years. Consider the following;
1. 18 -21 year olds are most likely to experiment with drugs and alcohol. They
took away your right to drink. The penalties for using drugs and alcohol have been
raised a dozen times in most states in the past two decades.
2. President
Bush has brought back the federal deficit and on a scale never before seen, don't
worry about who is paying, it's you the youth of America and you will be paying for
the Bush wars for the rest of your life and so will your children.
3 King
George has already called up all the armed forces, all the reserves, all the national
guard to wage his wars. Very very few are currently volunteering. So where will the
Republicrats get more soldiers for these ever expanding wars?
Bring
back the Draft, it's their only choice and I assure you it will be his first
executive order after the election
4. There is a movement is D.C to repeal
the 26th amendment.
They want to take your vote away!!!
