A hundred years ago women were given the right to vote in America. The Vietnam War was the impetus to give eighteen year olds the right to vote. Many others have been given that right since the U.S. was founded. Even the dead have voted. We have learned that people of all races, religions, education, sexual orientation have a propensity to elect crooks. It may be that we elect men or women (or other) that reflect either our own short-comings in logic or our own corruption. As a political atheist it’s hard to fathom voting for anyone. They all promise to steal more from our posterity to prolong a bankrupt lifestyle. Ross Perot was right; that loud sucking sound is the state stealing our future.
