TJ, yes I think the voting age should be lowered to 16. But the National Initiative proposal only lets registered voters vote on ballot initiatives. It doesn't change the voting age. BUT, YOU could use it to get a vote on lowering the voting age nationally, which you can't do now.
When I first realized that American democracy is not a strong democracy I was a little dismayed. All thru school my teachers and so many politicians talk about greatness and power of democracy, yet democracy America is very watered down. The power of America is in too few hands, and those hands can be bought and manipulated. We need real democracy in America!
