Not to sound ageist, but I firmly believe voting privileges should be revoked when you retire.
I'm not sure about voting but probably about being elected
I would think that removing the barriers to voting that affect younger voters is the better option, along with getting rid of the electoral college and allowing felons to vote. Taking away voting rights for certain classes of citizens is a slippery slope, especially when the root problem is some votes count more than others and many potential votes never make it to the polls.
I don't trust anyone with one foot in the grave to make long term decisions that benefit young people more than themselves any more than I trust a small child to make sound logical laws about bedtime.
they way leaders emerge from certain personalities, and get so corrupted, i think we'd be better off with random selection.
THIS is the way. Make political service be similar to jury duty.
