While some people may believe that giving voting rights to children over age of 15 may be a good idea, my opinion is that they should not be allowed to vote. Firstly, they are too young to understand complex matters such as politics. Since they are in the developing teenage years of their life, they already face variety of overwhelming teenage problems such as peer pressure, lack of self…

Americans reluctant to vote?? When looking at our politics today, once can’t help but shake our heads and question American electoral system. Is this really all there is to offer the American public?
