The voting rights have changed through history. All colors of all race have the right to vote and even all genders have the right to vote. But you still have to be atleast the age of 18 or older to have the right to vote. Women could vote in New Jersey and in some local areas, in all the other northern states. Non-white Americans could also vote in these areas as well, provided they could meet the property requirement. Freed slaves could vote in only four states. Initially, men without property and women were not allowed to vote. By the time of the U.S. Civil War, most white men were allowed to vote regardles of property ownership.

This right has been limited ever since the Sandy Hook incident. Obama and other people with the government has said their opinions about it. "We're a nation that believes in the Second Amendment, and I believe in the Second Amendment. We've got a long tradition of hunting and sportsmen and people who want to make sure they can protect themselves. My belief is that we have to enforce the laws we've already got, make sure that we're keeping guns out of the hands of criminals, those who are mentally ill. We've done a much better job in terms of background checks, but we've got more to do when it comes to enforcement. But weapons that were designed for soldiers in war theaters don't belong on our streets. Part of it is seeing if we can get an assault weapons ban reintroduced. But part of it is also looking at other sources of the violence. Because frankly, in my home town of Chicago, there's an awful lot of violence and they're not using AK-47s. They're using cheap hand guns." This was part of a presidental debate. This right was not always with the colonial times.

This right was born right after the civil war when the war was between The Unions and The Confederates (North vs South). Abraham Lincoln strongly disliked the thought of slavery let alone have any part of it. "A house divided against itself cannot stand. I believe this government cannot endure permanently half-slave and half-free. I do not expect the Union to be dissolved - I do not expect the house to fall - but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing or all the other."- Abraham Lincoln. The 13th amendment probably will never change in the future, but there is still racism. Slavery does still go on in other countries but those are 3rd world countries like in the middle east and all over Africa. Slavery is still a big issue in other countries but there are no worries in America because the 13th amendment protects that right. Abraham Lincoln was one of the best presidents America has ever had and has even done the biggest things in America and that is to obalish slavery. "On the question of liberty, as a principle, we are not what we have been. When we were the political slaves of King George, and wanted to be free, we called the maxim that "all men are created equal" a self evident truth; but now when we have grown fat, and have lost all dread of being slaves ourselves, we have become so greedy to be masters that we call the same maxim "a self evident lie."
